I have a stock rooted 6p on 6.0.1. and when watching videos, weather YouTube, downloaded videos on VLC, or Netflix, at random points in the video, it will either completely restart or jump back in time. So like on a 30 min video, it may play 18 fine, then jump to the 4 min mark and keep playing. Very annoying when you have to find where you were all the time. If I take the video back to the 18 min mark, it might play all of it or it may go to 19 or 20 and then blip to the 12 min mark. I can find no rhyme or reason, and across multiple programs. It did this before I rooted, on 7.1.1.
Any one have any ideas?

Hi,
I have a problem with my Magic right now, I'm using Villain's Rom 3.2.
While watching movie (a full movie, mp4 format, 1 hour and 36 mins), after 6 or 20 or something minutes, it freeze, I still can go to home or other apps but oh photo gallery to view the video again is impossible. The only way is to reinsert the battery and play the movie again but then again after few minutes the issue still persist.
please help if you know the sollution...
Thanks...
Whenever I watch videos online or YouTube, the videos do not play smoothly. About every 7-10 seconds it will freeze for a second or 2 then pick up 2 seconds later. It is incredibly annoying and pretty much makes my NS useless for watching videos. Is this a common issue with the NS? Should I try to get a new one through warranty or do all NS have this problem. (Internet speed not the problem)
No problem here with YouTube over W-LAN and mobile connection.
Did the video preload fully or are these "lags" due buffering?
Not sure if anyone else have encountered the same issue, but when I stream lengthy videos on Youtube app (>15mins), the buffering happens fine initially and the video kicks off. After say, 5 mins it stops all together and the video gets stuck. Im able to reproduce it everytime on my device. The workaround is to close the app, reopen it, get back to the same video, and get to the same point where it hung. Imagine my plight, when you need to watch an hours video on Youtube. I had buffering issues on the TF, where buffering was slow, but it never stuck indefinitely.
Anyone else facing similar issues and any ideas regardin how to fix this?

Testing it out now with a 20:00 minute video, couldn't find anything but the Milan Fashion Show in HD
Will let you know (have screen timeout set to 30 mins).
UPDATE: Watched the ladies march down the podium in full glory of HD for all 20 mins without any buffering issues.
Not sure if its a Youtube issue or issue with my Tab. The speed on my Wifi router is close to 25 Mbps download. But, lots of youtube videos take hell lot of time to buffer on my TF, Tab and in some cass, on my laptop too.

Most likely it is your ISP. Is it happening when you are connected to another wifi access point?

Just got Nexus 7, updated to 4.1.1
I'm having an issue with the stock Youtube app. I watch a video and 5-6 minutes in, Youtube would just stop streaming the video. When I try to go back a page, Youtube hangs and crashes.
This happens with all videos and 5-6 minutes into the video. I can fast forward/rewind in the video, but the video stops after 5-6 minutes and youtube crashes after that.
Also another problem, sometimes when I click to watch a video, the video won't stream at all and will just have the circular loading screen.
Does anybody have similar issues?
I'm having the same issue. After I go to System -> Apps -> YouTube and clear the cache it works fine for a few mins but then goes back to this behavior. Any thoughts?

I have much better luck (and prefer) watching YouTube through the Chrome browser. No problems like you describe.
Having the same issue. I wonder, how many people have the same problem? If not so many, could it be related to:
-subscription?
-hardware?
-wifi-stength?
Any updates or solutions for this problem?
I've had this problem for a long time, although for me it usually occurs 1-2 minutes into the video instead of 5-6 minutes. Also it happens around 80% of the time i play a video, not everytime.
I'm stock and rooted.
I need to limit amount of video YouTube quickly buffers. I have high speed volume based internet connection at home. Say for example if I start a 30 min video, by the time I have watched 5 min, all video will have been downloaded. Family members keep surfing long youtube videos, watch 5 min and switch to another and that is costing me huge volume of video data download. I wish there is setting in youtube app not to buffer more than say 5 min or say 50 MB. Any suggestion for me?
QoS in my aging router is not feature rich and I do not want to go this route.
