youtube player app from blackstone is playing video baldy with the generic UK R2A ROM. Very sluggish and lags a lot. Never had this problem with any of the ROMs i used before. Note that the video playback is good with this ROM, its just youtube videos on "high quality" with the youtube app play very slow and lagy.
I tried to re-install the app, not luck. Still videos play bad.
Any thoughts?
Guys anyone with the new generic UK ( or any R2A ROM) can atleast try youtube videos (on high quality please) and report?
would like to know if this is a problem with my phone or is it the ROM.
I reflashed generic UK ROM again (yes reflash, not hard reset) but still facing the same lag playing HD videos.
ive got the same lag while playin HQ videos with the new r2a swedish fw

Same here I'm using I'm rom new one
if you're with Vodafone UK, they say there's problems with gootube traffic currently and they're planning on changing something on their network to resolve it. if it's wifi/non-VF-UK, then i've no idea.
i'd try it myself, but mine's off for repair. using an N73 in the interim. grim.
It lags when using WiFi and High Quality Youtube here.
As long as the video loads, it lags very much and as soon as the file is fully loaded it runs smooth.
Are you guys/girls having problems with Internet access?
Opera Mobile/RSS hub has no problems connecting, but PIE remains forever on "Searching" (and never really pulls the website). The same is the case with Gmail using Pocket Outlook (IMAP/POP3). Thank goodness for Opera Mobile otherwise I would have gone back to R1A.
What I'm getting at, is maybe it's something to do with the DNS lookup/download routines? Is anyone else having the same problem?

This I dunno, because I never tried youtube with the old ROM.
But it's very annoying. I would let it load completely before watching but it seems that the video won't completely load before you start watching it -maybe there is a buffer size that has been set too little?
Yesterday night, I wanted to show a few music video to my girlfriend (no, it's NOT the best thing I know to do in bed ) but first it won't load completely and after a few seconds it started lagging. Then I had to pause it to let it load a little more.
^^lol. watching desktop youtube vids on opera is smoother. video plays smooth even when its still loading.
I also have lag in the youtube app since the r2a Dutch Rom
Anyone has a solution?
I have lag with R2A generic UK too.
Plays fine once the whole video is loaded.
It's choppy here too. Generic UK R2AA.
I've been playing a lot with the registry settings but there does not seem to be any difference no matter what I do.
I did manage to find one useful setting though; Set 'DisplayThroughput' = 1 and you can see the kBytes/s transferred in the titlebar when playing a video.
so is everyone saying that the upgraded rom is not as efficient at playing youtube as the old rom? or is it about the same?
i really dont watch you tube on my xperia but just curious. i got an x1a with the original firmware and for what i use it for, ive had no problems with it (bluetooth, wifi, phone calls, connections, gps) and so upgrading would be like pointless for me or not worth taking a chance to upgrade and be disappointed.
^^yes. video playback on the youtube app is laggy when its not fully loaded. def not the same.
Nothing wrong with mine. NAM rom, YouTube from the manilla cab.
Got the same problem, thru WIFI-connection. A friend says his is good but he goes thru turbo3g. Could it be a wifi-error?
It's the same on HSDPA here, so it's not necessarily a wi-fi problem. I did try with 3G only, and it does play a lot better, but not 100 % smooth as when the video is fully downloaded. (Additionally, HQ over 3G is not usable.)
It looks kind of like video on a windows computer without a display driver installed (default VGA windows driver installed). Choppy and laggy as hell. This may be connected to the same issue in video playback, where the Xperia has problems playing videos that should play smoothly. It may be some sort of I/O problem - prioritizing or the like.
We have to remember that Youtube is made for HTC devices, not 100 % Xperia X1. There may be some hidden issues there. Let's hope SE comes up with their own YT panel or app.
I flashed back to the old ROM for now, until someone fix this problem. Youtube is kinda important for me

Use coreplayer YouTube seems fine
is anyone having a video playback problem with HTC video player ???
I have, tried openeing a rather low-res MP4 video, and it wouldn't open it; the screen was black and it only said "loading" or whatever.
I tried 3 or 4 times, and during the last attempt it said something like "fatal error - blah blah - ARM11"
I didn't risk trying openening any videos again
No problems here at all - with mp4 files. Any other format is... disappointing. Except maybe if you install another video player app.
the problem, i am experiencing is the video recorded with the handset can not be played at all. i had to do hard reset couple of times just to have it work again. this happens after i install some applications. i tried uninstalling the apps, but in vain.
really appreciate if anyone can help me out here !!!

If it works after a hard reset, but not after installing some apps, do a hard reset and then try playing a video after each installation. That way you can identify which app is causing the problem.
Sounds like you'll need another hard reset afterwards, but at least you'll know the app that is breaking the video playback, and you can let us all know so that no-one installs it again!
I will bet you its right after you install the youtube app, because it uses similar files (you may notice the video playback uses a UI similar to that in the playback in the YouTube app) Would like to know if this situation can be fixed myself, without having to resort to flashing a rom and losing my warranty

You're spot on dude. I device was playing videos very well until I installed Youtube. Noticed straight away it was that causing the problem. I haven't removed youtube simple because of the fact its a brilliant app! works brilliant with wifi. Such a shame its the only place I can see video footage!
SOME ONE PLEASE FIND A WAY TO FIX IT OTHER THAN UNINSTALLING YOUTUBE!
remove youtube app and still watch youtube on opera
You may find this thread useful in getting opera to work properly when you visit youtube dot com. That way you can get rid of the app and still watch vids from there - you can even cue vids up in a playlist exactly like on a desktop pc.
So I have a Hero... and at fist it had bad quality until I found out that the setting could be changed. Now, my problem is that I can only play 1 out of 10 videos I try and play, it sucks... is there anything I can do to fix it and is anyone else having this problem??
yea, alot of videos dont work from the youtube app, even more dont work from youtube via the web browser + going through the browser gives ****ty quality
lets hope htc fix this up in 2.0/2.1 when they release it with the sense ui!

i heard in 2.0 most videos work cause of flash 10?
So I need 2.0?? How do I get it?
Also, is there maybe a differnt app or program that allows me to play youtube videos that isn't the one that comes with the phone? links if any plz.
are you on the stock rom? i'm using modaco's 3.0 and haven't got any problems, either on 3g or wifi.
there might be some media player apps that play streaming videos. on windows mobile, i used to use 'coreplayer' to stream youtube videos, worked well. there's gotta be one or two on android that do this??
btw, where is the setting to change the quality?
android really needs a coreplayer i miss the youtube on that works flawlessly
*EDIT*
maybe i spoke to soon
http://forum.corecodec.com/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=2885
nice!!! android needs this!
yes.. please.. what to do.. to fix this ??
I dont like.. that we have a youtube app.. that is 1/10 working!
any one.. have ideas ??
I think Youtube are using some Flash10 exclusive coding techniques that our beloved Hero can't handle due to the Hero actually don't have a full blown Flash10 support...
This would make sense, except that before I got the hero I had the mytouch and youtube app worked great with little to no problems (I've tried it on both a stock and rooted rom on both hero and mytouch). I'm having a hard time understanding why the hero has problems with it.
I do find that sometime if I go into a task manager and kill youtube and start it again it works for a bit. It seems also that changing the quality of the video causes it to quit working too.
I must be very lucky every single video i tryed to watch worked fine with stock ROM...
Maybe is connection related...or just pure luck
They should work as if I'm not mistake the youtube player links to the mp4 feed, he may need to update his rom to the latest version which plays smoothly.
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?
