Anyone else have issues using the Youtube App in relation to an endless amount of buffering? If i try to watch a HQ video thru the App it has to buffer every 5 seconds or so.....making it pretty much impossible to use. I can however load youtube in a browser, and stream just fine.....leading me to believe the App is the problem. My wifes iPad streams thru it's Youtube App without issue, so I know it isn't a router problem or anything of that nature either. Anyone else having similar issues? Or anyone know of a solution?
Anyone else having issues might want to try this youtube apk. Seems to be working better than the lastest version from the play store.

So i some problems when it comes to viewing my videos i record through the phone. After i record them and go into 3d gallery to play them, they come out very choppy, like its loading and just skips through parts. It really is annoying cause the only way to view my videos is to record them and place them onto computer to properly watch them. Is anyone else having this problem? I switch between CM and MIUI roms. Both cause the same problem, i get the feeling it my be either my sd card or 3d gallery.
Hey i have the same problem. Every time I record a video then play it, it plays all choppy and weird, but if you play that same video twice, the second time will play it smoothly. I still don't know why this is happening, I'm also thinking it has something to do with the memory card. Hopefully somebody can help us out here.
Videos work fine with stock software.

Anyone else with some kind of solution?
Is anyone else constantly getting the "there was a problem while playing" error when viewing videos in the YouTube app?

yeah, only happens with HQ, but i posted a bug report with google. the app is also not caching very much of the videos so it has problems on that front. i have a super fast internet connection too.
yes I get this every time. Once I click retry it doesn't do it again until I play a differ ant video.
When I had my nexus one and I downloaded the new YouTube app it kept doing it so I had to uninstall the update. It wasn't until I got my nexus s the YouTube app worked perfect with the gingerbread update
A quick work around is to use jetvd app from market to stream 720p youtube videos... but eah problem is there and its super annoying. Happens almost every time u pause.
It also reverts to 480p video, and nothing u can do will revert it back to 720p. U have to reload the video. Super annoying
Yeah both wifi and 3g I get the error. Instlling what looks to be an older youtube from the market lets me play HD no problem... just not as interesting looking.

So I'm sure it is well known that the nexus 7 doesn't have flash, however for embedded youtube videos that most likely use html 5 ( I know because I can play them on my ipad just fine) I cant seem to get the video working well on the nexus 7. for example, I tried loading up a roosterteeth.com video, (doesn't matter which one all of them are the same) and the video plays but I have no control over it, no scan bar, no full screen, and the video is choppy. this is one terrible experience that I really wish someone could figure out how to fix. at one point I was using dolphin and once it asked me if I wanna play the video using a stock video app, however that only worked that one time and only in dolphin. Someone HELP!
Bump, anyone have tips?

I'm also wondering this, any ideas?
Hi,
Is anyone else having these problems with netflix on their G2?
I did search google and this forum for problems like mine. I read a lot about out of sync audio/video. Slow user interface, bad image quality, etc.
All this is fine here. Audio plays well and keeps playing. All remains in sync. but the video keeps lagging in about every stream. It's not like it needs to buffer again, it's just annoying lag.
I had contact with netflix. They told me it was probably my Phone running background apps i wouldn't be able to stop, and i should contact LG. Well, if that would be true, my HTC One X shouldn't be able to play everything smoothly..
I am beginning to suspect it's something with the Phone and would like your comments on this.
Thanks!

no problems on my vs980
Little update;
I'm on Android 4.2.2.
I deleted the Original Netflix app and downloaded the "netflix black rotation v2.1.2 apk" from xda.
With this app, the quality is not as good as with the Original app, but no stutter/lag!
Any ideas?
Still using the old app. Works fine. Quality on the new app is better but still no lag or stutter with this one. Read something about the new app only working with newer android versions. Don't know if this is true but if anyone is having the same stutter/lag issues, try the older netflix app!
yes the real problem is when Netflix use best quality video stream, limiting the quality is not a real fix.
Is there something built within Samsung that will prevent streaming apps from playing video? I can't get any streaming app to play video whether it's streamed or downloaded. It doesn't matter whether it's Netflix, Peacock, Vudu, whatever. When I go to play a video, I get a playback error.
Anyone encounter something similar?
Instead of recreating a similar thread, I'll just bump this one. Hoping to get some help on this. My device is stock, rooted with Magisk and I can't get any streaming app to work whether connected to the internet with with videos downloaded within the app. Has anyone encountered something similar. The errors codes all point to something with the internet connection, but as mentioned, it gives the same errors even for downloaded videos.
