Anyone having the problem with Netflix A/V being out of sync? Any suggestions on fixes?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I installed Netflix from the Amazon Appstore and briefly watched about 15 minutes of a movie. Worked well for me so far. Did the a/v out of sync take a long time to be noticeable, or was it immediately?
I've been having problems with netflix as well. I set a static ip and set the dns to gooogles servers and it seems to be working a little better. The sound can be just slightly off at times, but before it was skipping a great bit.

Noticed as soon as I saw a mouth. And as far as static IP, i don't know how much this will help me.

I had this problem, and looking over reviews in the Amazon Appstore, so did many others.
I found an APK for v1.4 online and that seems to not have this issue.

Have you tried playing the video on another device like your PC? Sometimes it's the content that's the problem and not the device.
been hearing about this for a few days now. I really would like to get my hands on a Kindle Fire (more so after the root has been announced) so my question now is that this "a/v out of sync" issue, is it just for the version of netflix on the amazon app store (i know that one's different from the phone version, its apparently "optimized for tablets") or does it apply to a netflix apk sideloaded (from perhaps a HTC Sensation?)
Hulu+ is PERFECT
Hulu+ is perfect, if you're into TV. No glitching, sync problems, or anything.
I ended up removing the app, rebooting, installing again and now netflix seems much better than before.

I haven't noticed this yet on the Fire but with the PS3 app it happens quite often.
I noticed this as well, but it seemed to clear up afetr a reboot. I've heard that other devices have started seeing issues only after the netflix update that came out last week. So not sure where the problem lies...
I've been trying out the modded version of netflix found over a PPCGeeks. I've so found found the "Isystems-Netflix1.4.1-XH264-Tablet-Wizard-RR.apk" file to run the best on the Fire. The stream quality is improved, rotation is enabled, and audio is in sync.
Videos played by my nexus have an odd choppy feel. Every five seconds or so, the player pauses for a very noticeable moment, then continues. Is anyone else experiencing this?

No problems regarding smoothness.
The only problem I have is that nothing seems to have audio (using mxPlayer)

Yes.
Is it a background app causing it? I read about a few phones having this issue in the past.

I'm on 4.1.1, not rooted and I've noticed the same problem. When playing a video or certain games every 5 seconds or so there is a slight pause. I've tried different video players and still the same issue.

Having the same issues but it seems to happen more with games especially tegra 3 games like a riptide. the funny thing is is I swear I remember playing riptide and It had no lag. I can't remember whether it was prior to the 4.11 update.
Same here! I tried watching the Transformer movie we got for free and it kept freezing up! This is irritating, I'm going to try a factory reset. I'm exchanging this thing any way cause the headphone jack is defective.
From my long awaited and totally worth it EVO LTE!
Same issue here after upgrading to 4.1.1. Anyone here having this issue on a custom ROM? If not then I'm flashing a ROM ASAP.

Try other video players (MX Player, BSPlayer)
Was this apparent before 4.1.1? I just got my 7 yesterday and updated right away and do notice the stutter w/ my high profile 720p vids. On my Prime stuttering was fixed with over clocking and running an interactive governer.
Edit: this is for 720p high profile movies stored on the device, happening w/ dice player and MX player. Don't use stock since it doesn't support ac3 audio.
stock n7 with latest ota updates, unlocked and rooted. No problem playing any game and video, either stream from play store (transformer movie) or stream my my home network.

It doesn't matter if it's on the device or not, it happens when I stream the transformer movie and/or any YouTube video. I'm about to return this back to Google if I don't find a solution soon. Going to try a data factory reset and see if that helps.

Yeah looks like its happening for me on YouTube as well.
I just put a video on my device from my PC and it played fine. But if I stream anything it plays like crap
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Did some more testing. Tried the stock player and no stutter but no sound due to no ac3 support. I have another 7 coming in on Monday and will test that one leaving it as is (before 4.1.1 update)
I just got off the phone with Google and they said it's probably a issue with my router streaming media on the device. I'm going to test another WiFi connection sometime soon and see if the issue persist or not.

I'm having problems with this, I can't watch a single video on this device without the lag. I've tried the youtube app, Netflix, dice player and a few other video apps and everyone of those lag.

Is it just me, or is the YouTube app really slow to load videos? And when I skip ahead or go back, it just refuses to go, even after twenty minutes of "loading".
I went to go to the play store to give a comment that is was being slow, and then I realized it said the app wasn't compatible, and the YouTube app we have isn't the same as the one from the play store.

I have this same issue. Youtube app is so slow in loading videos that it is unusable on my Nexus 7. Using Youtube via browser is a bit better but still way too slow. Does anyone know what might be causing this?
Btw, what do you mean by different app? I think nexus7 yt app is certainly the same app as the one on Play store..
Not for me. Videos start streaming nearly instantly on the YouTube app. I jut tried a random HD video. It started in ~one second. I tried changing the location slider and it responded fluidly.
In fact, this is one of the things I like a lot about the nexus 7.
I have noticed that while Netflix is very responsive its try difficult to get the position slider to nudge just a little forward or back.
Stock, rooted.

That is strange because for me, it just keeps "loading" forever when I try to watch a video (the menus and search etc. still work nice and fast in the Youtube app).
Maybe I should do a factory reset to see if that fixes this issue. My Nexus is stock, unrooted. I love the way this tablet handles but this issue is driving me crazy..

I've noticed youtube videos take a while to start but once they've started there's no buffering issues and skipping to different parts works fine,
It seems Nexus 7 doesn’t like my internet connection / wlan router (Cisco epc3825).
When using 3G connection (using my Galaxy Nexus as wlan access point), Youtube works fine. But with my 40mbps cable connection, it’s a no go.
This sucks, especially since my 1st gen iPad works fine using the same connection. I guess there is no workaround other than to buy a new wlan router - anyone know of one that would work well with Nexus7?

EDIT: I switched to Zyxel router and everything works fine again.
Guys, i had the same problem and i just went into play store and deleted the last update.... There are a bunch of bad reviews for the latest update... Give it a try, it might work for ya as well ^-^
I tested with the stock rom and it loads fast. With custom roms it loads slow. Check it out.....

Could someone please test this for me. Make sure the video is playing in HD and look for every so slight choppy playback in the video. You will need something action packed.
Cheers!
mine is ok it depends on the speed of your connection.

Maybe I see it more then you do? Try using SmartTube from the app store. Plays a lot smoother and 1080p . It also allows you to set the video quality from 240p to 1080p and everything in between. Sorted out all my youtube playback issues.
Haven't encountered any problems.
The linked video also works fine (after waiting for it to load, slow internet connection).
Is it choppy for the entire video?
I.e. do you get this just for some videos, but then it's for the entire video, or does it happen just for part of the video?

Yeah all videos but heres the kicker. Using an app called Smart Tube I have no issues at 1080p playback. Perfectly smooth! Using the stock youtube app is choppy for me.
I've had this phone since Sunday. Bought at an EE store in the UK. I'm loving it. However....
1) It has crashed twice while receiving calls...just keeps ringing and phone frozen...not too worried about that...yet.
2) Twice it's booted up with the screen not taking any input whatsoever....again...not worried as a hard reboot sorts that.
The 2 above are just minor inconveniences...doesn't actually stop me from doing anything....I've taken enough calls to know...that crashing when receiving a call is going to be rare enough not to drive me mad.
The real problem I have, is that google Play movies and TV will not settle down and play without stuttering between 5 and 15fps. It's only google play movies and TV doing this. I can play back all content on the device fine with no problems.
It doesn't matter if I stream or download the content on google movies and tv - it will stutter.
Tried re-installing...tried clearing app data + cache...it will not sort itself out.
Does anyone else have the same problem?
Note to mods : My apologies...I should have posted this to Q&A.

Hi! Thanks. Just one bit of info that would be useful to me. Do you have this phone? Is your google movies playing back OK? If you have the phone, but you don't have any content on google play, would you do me a really good favour and download one of the free TV shows? Especially if you happen to be on EE!
Cheers!
Yeah I've got the phone, unlocked from cpw so no EE stuff and I've got no issues on the minion movie

Yes. I've worked out that it works WITHOUT storage encryption. The moment the phone is encrypted, the stuttering comes back.
Google won't fix it, saying that it's a performance issue. Sony have told me that they've booked it in as a bug, but I can't expect any fix anytime soon.
The problem I have is that Hulu crashes on me. All other video apps have no trouble.

Ok I just tried it. I couldn't get to open a Violet account, and I had to skip it. When I purchased a video it was fine(free one), and then tried to play it. It'll hang no matter which resolution I chose. Same thing happens to Hulu. Netflix, Vicki, Drama Fever, Crunchyroll, Google Play Movies, and Funimation works fine for me.

Seems it's a problem on all Z5 Premium phones. I really like Vudu because the streaming is basically blu-ray quality.

Hi, are you on MM yet? Have you tried Hulu & Vudu? Seems the Z5P isn't ooo friendly.
I sold my Z5P. I wasn't happy in the end with their support over movies I had purchased and couldn't even get them on my phone. 3 months later and still couldn't get them. I gave in and walked away.
