Anyone else having an issue with YouTube streaming videos extremely slow and having to buffer every 5 seconds from the app? It doesn't matter what quality it is, it goes slow as hell. And make me wonder more I can stream it just fine over data at any quality with little to no buffer

My videos recorded on the phone do not play worth a crap after the update. Way too much lag. Sound keeps playing but video stops. Anyone else having this issue?

I just received this Galaxy Note and noticed that on youtube video playback, the HQ playback on various vids look grainy and somewhat pixelated. My friend has a Nexus and the same playback looks really clear. I've always heard great things about the Note's screen so I'm really surprised and disappointed. This is noticeable on different brightness levels. Can anyone suggest what I can do to determine if my screen has issues or if there is some setting I have to tweak?
You need to update your YouTube app as the default doesn't use hd, just hq. Also HD only works over wifi.

Thanks bud, updating the app worked.
HQ=480p. Obviously when you compare it to true HD, the HD will look better...

I hope you don't have the black clipping issue that is widespread on dark videos. By your're description of pixellation, it sounds like you might... :-(

I just got my note and it's showing the black clipping issues that are described here.... should I return my not and try to get one that doesn't have this issue?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
As soon as you can, yes. Some units play almost unwatchable videos. Better units r out there

Hi there,
I recently purchased a Nexus 4 following the price drop and generally speaking I'm very happy with it. I do however have one issue. When playing HD YouTube videos, there appear to be dropped frames every 5 seconds or so. This gives videos a somewhat jerky appearance and is particularly noticeable in clips involving slow panning. I did not expect this from a phone with a quad core processor. The video buffers fine and there is no apparent lag in other areas of the OS.
I am running stock Android 4.3. The phone is not rooted.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Quad core doesn't really have much to do with video playback smoothness. It may be thermal throttle. If the phone is getting hot, it might be lowering clock speed to keep the temperature safe. See if you get the same behavior on a cold morning, or with other video playing apps.

Thanks for responding. I've just tried the DailyMotion app and it is noticeably better. I'll also try YouTube tomorrow morning as per your suggestion. I do use a case with Perspex on the back. Could this affect heat dissipation?

Any case potentially could, though I use a pretty sturdy one and don't experience YouTube stutters. Are you running the latest YouTube version?

Yes I am. To be honest, the stuttering is pretty subtle but its one of those irritating things that you can't forget after you first see it.

I've noticed stutters on YouTube when the screen is tapped to bring up the buttons, when watching in HD.

Really pixelated and laggy for me right now, but progress is good.
Yeah the stream is a bit pixelated and unclear but the Dev in the video was using an apple tv, is there a difference, or could it be my router?

Using an Apple TV is smoother and looks better. Chromecast casting will probably get better as the app progresses.

Yup, slight lag and pixelation around movement, using a n600 buffalo router. Loving the progress and stream to pc is a fun plus, I cant wait for more updates on it. Thanks for the share.
Very good start. I didn't expect it to work as well as it did.
I don't really see much lag, but the pixelation is there. I casted my N5 with a hockey stream on to my desktop and to my TV with a Chromecast and it was definitely watchable but there is definitely room for improvement.
Pretty surprised overall.
Recorded some videos with stock camera earlier and they won't play on my phone anybody know why.im running lollipop bln9
