3.1 and Youtube app - Xoom General

Hi Xoomers. I'm using the Transformer currently and would like to know about HC 3.1 and the Youtube app. 2 quick questions
1) Does the Youtube app on 3.0.1 on the Xoom also have the choppy/laggy playback problem in full screen with HD turned on? The Transformer has this problem.
2) If Yes to 1, did upgrade to 3.1 fix the playback issue in the app?
Thanks in advance

I've never had choppy playback in HD in the YouTube app

It is greatly improved.
The UI is different too:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

i don't like the way they moved fullscreen icon to bottom left corner.

Can't say if 3.1 fixes the problem, still waiting for it, but my Wifi xoom always start full screen HD youtube movies choppy. Same on rewind or forward... choppy for a while and gets ok after a couple of seconds.

If you are talking about the jumpy video when you switch to full screen and when ever there is something over-lay, if that is the issue you are talking about, yes it is resolved. I did not see any of that same jumpiness at when I switch to full screen.

My Wifi XOOM Youtube never experience choppy issue in either 3.0.1 or 3.1

I'm not speaking about the jumpy choppyness when switching to full screen. I'm speaking about choppyness when the video plays in full screen HD mode. It is an issue on the Transformer.

Is this a problem?

I just got this tablet recently, not too much surprise since i am already user android 2.2 rom on x10
But i notice there is time where this tablet fail to respond to touch command say after a long timeout. As in i can't move the bubble to unlock the screen at all
I tried to turn it off and the pop up wasn't even responsive at all to touch.
Is this a failure on my tab alone or anyone else have the same problem ?
Also it is common for the tablet to have a slow respond to screen switch and rotate a lot ? I found my tablet go portrait mode even lie down (i want it to be landscape).
please indicate what version you are running and what kernel.
i have no such problems running 3.1 upgraded tu .38
Wrongfeifong from The Order of the Silver Hand? If so Korgana here cool that you got this same tablet lol.
I've not had any problems like that yet.
No, I havn't had any issues and if you want to be landscape use the rotation lock switch, it's beside the volume butons.

Sorry, had to.... anyway, if you are running 3.0 and not 3.1 it could be the "Removal from Charger" issue and causes it to lock up? I dunno, like the others said, what is your current version?
I just got it right out of the box and never update
3.0.1 android version
2.6.36-0001 kernel
and hey small world isn't it? yea i am the same person from silver hand.

weird browser bug with some roms

Ok so I typically run the stock rooted roms that get pushed out by such people as DutchDanny since in 3.1 i was able to recolor the navigation bar which made everything blend nicely. After a long while I decided that it was time to rom it up since i am a flash-a-holic on my tbolt as it is. Now I primarily use my tab 10.1 wifi while at work and tether it to my tbolt to watch any videos or shows that I want since I work overnight and our internet is selectively blocking access and flash to sites like ch131.com. So in my scenario the browsers flash playing ability is key.
One thing I have noticed while testing out 3 roms (Overcome, Stock/rooted KMM, BinDroid, and Galaxy Task) is that the browser seems to want to work differently when playing flash videos now. Now keep in mind I wipe everything atleast twice (data, cache, voltage, battery, dalvik cache) so its fresh each time and below is what I am seeing for each of the 4:
Stock

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Bindroid
Overcome
Galaxy Task
Does anyone have any idea what that gap on the bottom of the video between the players controls and the navigation bar is being caused by. As you see in the stock KMM rom it should not be appearing and even when task650 was kind enough to provide me with a flashable replacement for the stock browser rather than the xoom one, the problem remained.
dont suppose anyone is able to replicate this?
I used ch131.com to test videos

Watch Video and post review

Hello all ,
Go to Youtube and watch DTS : The Speaker Orchestra
Watch it in HD
LINK : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBvm4FZF8L4
Compare it with playing in your laptops or desktops or other smart phones...
You'l see how awful this pixel crush is in Note....!!
PS: Please post your review here after watching the video
Yup. Looks like where there is black background there are huge pixels. I don't know how it's possible.
I watched it in opera mobile browser, bit of black crush.
That video looks sweet on my note really shows off the screen :-D
It's there for only a fraction of a second... If I watch the exact same section where the so called crush is on my pc monitor I see the same artifacts. It's just compression that messes with that particular section. Apart from that fraction of a second the rest of the clip just shows what a gorgeous screen the Note has.
I took a screenshot on my pc and lowered the mid levels in Photoshop by just a little to show exactly what is wrong with the movieclip and not with the phone... All this whining about crush is getting ridiculous if you're just blindly blaming the Note. This is just lousy compression and has absolutely nothing to do with the Note itself.
The proof:

This shot is taken from the 1080p version and the artifacts are there at the exact same frames in all screen modes.
My review: calibrate your laptop or desktop monitor if you can't see these artifacts on it, your contrast/brightness settings are off.
amazing

1440p, 2160p or WQHD/4K VIDEO playback problems, why...?

Hi Guys! I just bought this tablet, and been trying to play higher than HD videos for days in multiple circumstances without succes.
what is going on?
i updated to the latest firmware,
latest youtube app, videoplayers (tried several)
in youtube app:
wont show options higher than 1080p
cant zoom in to 16:9 videos to get rid of letterboxing.
I tried these videos, Patagonia 8K, etc. still only fullHD
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChOhcHD8fBA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPdWJeybMo8
also tried in video player app,
downloaded the above vids from youtube in WQHD and 4k resolutions : bad playback, stuttering
tried blueray rips, 2160p : extreme stuttering and freezups!
1440p : theres very few available in this resolution, movies etc. only found one, played ok, but sometimes stuttered also.
what am I doing wrong? or this is a only fullHD capable tablet with a bigger screen stacked on?
thx :highfive:
ps: this is the one of those I tried, with very heavy stuttering, while I also cut the first 20 so minutes and removed 2 audiostreams from the 3 to make it easyer on the rig, but to no avail...

I went to a local place to try this app. and L1 is supported. Didn't have a chance to try netflix though.
Even if netflix doesn't support, you can get hd with the modded netflix.
