flash streaming quality...?

It seems that my 10.1 can't even effectively handle 480p streams without skipping. Problem withmy tab or just normal?

Can you give an example of what streams you are trying to play?
I haven't been able to play 720p streams smoothly but I haven't had any trouble with SD streams.

Hmm, wierd. I can stream 720p youtube and other embedded 720p flash streams without any problems :x

same here - might be a tab/OS version issue the OP has
my tab is the IO version - galaxytask 13.1, OC 1.4

Well I guess this is all pointless unless we start giving the specifics here.
I am running Overcome 2.2.0 with Pershoots latest kernel. I have the CPU set to the stock clock speed (1ghz) and the governor set to ondemand.
Youtube videos in the Youtube app play fine HD and SD. Flash videos on Youtube in the browser are a mixed bag. The 480p videos play fine but I haven't been able to find a 720p flash video on Youtube that will play smoothly.
Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atx2856pUos. On 480p flash in the browser it plays fine. On 720p it does not.

i have everything at stock 3.2. The streams I'm talking about are on sites not the you tube app. I think view on the YouTube adds are optimized for mobile devices. Anything higher than 380 on a site stream gives me hiccups.

I have trouble viewing some flash content using the web browser. I watch a lot of Twitch tv streams which play pretty well on 480p 720p is ok but it can stutter/buffer quite a lot at times.
I have encountered a problem with the latest flash update where bbc iplayer doesn't work and there appears to be screen tearing so I've had to downgrade to the pre installed flash.

Wait, which one do you mean? Stuttering can be caused by the tab, but buffering is always due to a slow internet connection.

I haven't noticed any stuttering on YouTube, browser or app even in HD 720. Then last night I was trying to watch some Dakar rally on their website, and it was stuttering like mad. Even at 320. Buffer was fine, but like every 2 or 3 seconds it would freeze for a few frames.

The youtube app works fine it's just when viewing flash in the browser that has problems.
I watch videos on twitch TV and the video freezes then plays, I have no idea if this is the internet or if it's the tablet but since other videos play fine I would have to say it's the internet however as youtube videos work fine I would have to assume it is either twitch tv or the web browser.
Edit:
I got in touch with Samsung support about the performance and video problems I'm experiencing and was told to return the tablet to 1 of their repair centres as it "would need a software reset, or re flashing of the Software," Samsungs wording. As there is a repair centre pretty close to where I live I'll be taking it there either this weekend or next week and hopefully they can get it sorted

Cool, let me know what happens after the new fix. Thanks.

Flash is really rubbish. I when I switch to full screen the screen keep flashing. I have to uninstall the update to solve this problem... Any1 experience the same problem?

Sometimes when I switch to full screen I get flashing, or a black triangle part of the screen that flickers. Again, this is just through the browser. I've tried other browsers (Dolphin, Firefox) and still go back to the stock one, I just like it the best.

I can confirm that flash on honeycomb is much lagging than on gingerbread or ics. Before I had Mytouch 4g( single core) and Motorola Xoom and the Mytouch gave me better experience when I watch flash videos. And now,I have sensation 4g running ics and SGT on 3.2. The sensation is the winner when watch flash content.T

Same here, 3.2.1

im using thors rom v14.2 and when i try to watch something from youtube it plays for a couple seconds then buffers alot and its really annoying and dont know how to fix this if its even possible so if someone could please explain that would be awesome thanx in advance

This for me i have noticed that commercial you-tube video works well. End user armature uploaded video is usually what gets lagged. Make sure you log into you-tube with your google account . this does make it a bit better. I Get the same thing on my notebook but of course alot less

it's youtube's server, they have been pretty hammered the past couple weeks. You'll notice that it's slow on any device, even on computer connected via LAN connection.

So everything else works except movie playing?
Could it be the audio codecin the movie is not supported?
Have you tried MX player?

I was thinking the same... What about other movies? In addition to a different player, may be worth trying some videos in different formats. What about YouTube playback, and music (not movies, but just some MP3s)?

Thanks for reply~
well, many players and many vedios tried.
the laudspeaker is still silent, but when headset mounted, sound can be heard.
The problem didn't appear 2 or 3 days ago.
I also flash different roms, same problem

Oh, sorry - I didn't read your first post carefully... If the headset works, the problem is most definitely not the codec. Frankly, I am at a loss here - your speaker seems to work selectively (system sounds OK, but not the media); I can't think of any reasonable explanation for that. If not for the system sounds, I would think of a bad contact in the headset jack (it disconnects the speaker when the plug is inserted), but it's not the case here...

Hi,
I had the same problem with my tablet GT-P5100 with original software. The solution is to preinstall the OS

When you play video in youtube change quality to 720p by clicking 3dot button at top right corner..

Have you tried changing the 'Hardware-accelerated settings' under the developer options?

Amazon Prime Video issue

Wondering if anyone is having the same problem I am with the OnePlus 6T or has suggestions to fix it. When I try to play videos I downloaded through Amazon Prime for offline viewing, the sound only comes through in extremely short stutters or not at all. If I stream it works as expected. Already reinstalled Prime Video, tried all the download quality options, and no change. Downloaded and streaming video from Netflix works fine. Guessing codec issues or sound settings but haven't found a solution thus far.
Anyone else run into this?

Did you root O6t ?
I saw on one of the post that, there's some issue with Amazon & netflix videos after root.

Are you on the T-Mobile version? The latest OS update pushed out a few days ago broke Play Store certification for many people. That can cause issues with apps that use DRM, like Netflix and I guess maybe Amazon Prime Video. If this is the case, clearing data/storage on the Play Store fixes it. Source.
ETA: Just noticed the timestamp on the OP, doh. Oh well, leaving my post up in case anyone else having this problem more recently comes here looking for answers.
