All of a sudden youtube is very slooow!

I have never had any problems since I have Duttys 6.5ROM(unlike 6.1 finale!). However from today the videos are becoming extremly slow to stream when I have Wifi connection. They will stream to approx 30-50% and then freeze and then go approx 50-53-56% etc. It is extremely slow. I have tried adjusting video playback to autoselect rather then high quality but still getting same problem. Incidently there is no problens when using internet,so not sure anything to do with connection. It seems the connection is stuttering.
Please help

New rom fixes it I believe

fixed now!
Somebody was downloading a movie on home PC !

[Q] Qik Live Streaming

Has anyone else tried this? I've tried it but I've noticed that it only shows ever 20 seconds or so then sits there until the next 20 seconds. Essentially, I'll start streaming live and the first few seconds of the video will show then it freezes. Once the timer on the camera reaches around 20-22 seconds, the live feed video will kinda fast-forward/skip to the 20-22 second mark and freeze again until around the 40-42 second mark. Anyone else experiencing this?
The regular recording videos and sharing them is fine but the live feed just flat doesn't work.

I'm also having trouble getting live streaming to work. I thought it was a network speed problem but it even does it over wifi.

I tried 3G, 4G, and wifi all with the same results.

bump; anyone find a fix or better app for this?

I have not tried it yet, but you could try Ustream (http://www.ustream.tv/). It has an app for streaming via your phone in Android Market.

It wasn't happenin for me...

nexus s and video

Whenever I watch videos online or YouTube, the videos do not play smoothly. About every 7-10 seconds it will freeze for a second or 2 then pick up 2 seconds later. It is incredibly annoying and pretty much makes my NS useless for watching videos. Is this a common issue with the NS? Should I try to get a new one through warranty or do all NS have this problem. (Internet speed not the problem)

No problem here with YouTube over W-LAN and mobile connection.
Did the video preload fully or are these "lags" due buffering?

Youtube crashes after 5-6 minutes in video

Just got Nexus 7, updated to 4.1.1
I'm having an issue with the stock Youtube app. I watch a video and 5-6 minutes in, Youtube would just stop streaming the video. When I try to go back a page, Youtube hangs and crashes.
This happens with all videos and 5-6 minutes into the video. I can fast forward/rewind in the video, but the video stops after 5-6 minutes and youtube crashes after that.
Also another problem, sometimes when I click to watch a video, the video won't stream at all and will just have the circular loading screen.
Does anybody have similar issues?

I'm having the same issue. After I go to System -> Apps -> YouTube and clear the cache it works fine for a few mins but then goes back to this behavior. Any thoughts?

I have much better luck (and prefer) watching YouTube through the Chrome browser. No problems like you describe.

Having the same issue. I wonder, how many people have the same problem? If not so many, could it be related to:
-subscription?
-hardware?
-wifi-stength?

Any updates or solutions for this problem?
I've had this problem for a long time, although for me it usually occurs 1-2 minutes into the video instead of 5-6 minutes. Also it happens around 80% of the time i play a video, not everytime.
I'm stock and rooted.

[Q] Netflix video problem with 8.0 help

Do you guys get video stuttering on Netflix? It's pretty bad on my tab 4 8.0 to the point of getting a headache. I've tried 2.4 & 5ghz but no change. Battery saver is off. This doesn't happen on any other android devices I own. Even my old tab 2 runs Netflix smoother. Any tips or is this how it is on all tab 4s?

Could someone try Netflix and let me know how it is on your tablet please.

Tested Netflix on my Tab4 8", no problems at all.
Do you experience this stuttering on any other video app?

I've tried out some other players like mxplayer and also stuff like YouTube and video playback is smooth. It seems to be just Netflix that is having this issue for me. I've restarted and all that but no luck. Netflix is the only one getting this stuttering every few seconds. Real annoying. Not sure why. I've never seen Netflix act like this on any of my devices and other tablets that I currently own.

Try clearing the cache, try reinstalling?

i have the same problem
what i have tried so far:
1. re install firmware using Kies.
2. format cache, factory reset from recovery
3. clear cache, restart app
4. disabled screen mirror, smart stay, palm motion , switched to nova launcher...
5. limit background process, check do not keep activities.
6. disabled power saving.
7. disabled multiwindow.
edit: also tried
8. clear all other apps cache.
9. Turned off all the bloatware.
10. installed task killers, show no process running since they are Turned off.
11 disabled rotation
12. enabled airplane mode
I also noticed movies in SD does not shutter. only the ones in super HD.
don't know what else to try, and i don't want to root and lose warranty.
playing 1080p 60Hz videos shutter a little bit, I'm starting to think that is just that the CPU cant cope with doing many things at the same time like using wireless an decoding video. since day 1, i noticed that while the updates were downloading and installing it became very laggy over all, and I was like, what are 4 cores there for then? its just that its a crappy tablet and that's all.

I've tried a lot of the things above to and Netflix is still having this micro stuttering. I noticed that if I lower the Netflix quality in my settings it will still stutter so it has nothing to do with the tablet not being able to handle high quality. It almost seems like there's a bug on the Netflix side with this tablet that is causing this or something. It's kinda sad that my old tab 2 7.0 Netflix stream is better than this new tab 4. I also have a shield tablet that just blows both these away but that's expected. My wife and daughter use this tab 4 and they watch allot of Netflix on it so I would really like to figure this out. Anyone else have any ideas on what to do or know if there's a bug that needs to be ironed out with Netflix and this tablet. Maybe there's a update from Netflix or Samsung to fix this problem in the future...if they know about it.
