gnex 4.2 dont be mean to youtube! - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey devs , I have a question.
As soon as I updated to 4.2, the YouTube quality goes all pixelated as soon as it comes to sudden transitions and for example: when some one is in a chair and not moving the quality is fine but as soon as that person gets up the whole video becomes a pixilated mess. It is really bugging me and Ihave already reset it bit that did nothing.And yes hq is on. Some one got any solutions??

That's because hq is on. Turn it off or use wifi and it will be fine.

.
Yeah it still does it. It is really annoying!

[Q] Choppy Low Quality Video on Youtube in ICS

On every ICS ROM (not the 2.3.7 mod) I used on my EVO 4g, I have noticed choppy playback(I mean it was really lagging) on YouTube videos even on WiFi (20Mbps) but not on High Quality. Have anyone else noticed this problem because I haven't seen anyone complaining on this issue? Maybe its just my phone. Anyway thanks for your responses.

You might want to check to see what process' running on your phone,could be causing the lag.

But the lag is gone when I turn HQ on and comeback when its off.
there is no video acceleration on those roms yet, hence why your videos are stuttering.
I have pretty much the same problem, but when I leave youtube and re-open it, everything is fine.

Why are youtube vids soo slow?

I am finding youtube videos so slow slow to start and continuously stopping to download the file, I never had issues like this with my desire HD or HD2. Although the screen is so superior on the one X it is completely spoiling the experience having to wait for 10-15 seconds to wait for the video to begin and the to have the video pausing every 5 secs. IS this an issue with the phone or the wifi connection I am using. I have unchecked the high quality on mobile in settings but to no avail. Any help appreciated

stock android 4.0.3
I have the exact same problem, latest officiall update: stock 4.0.4 with sense 4.1
Youtub constanstly keeps stopping and I have to wait for download
It is not related to my internetconnection
I had the same problem on previous SW version as well....
The phone is not rooted
Just checked, it's fine here, buffering at over double real time speed, on a hd video. 1.29.708.15.
To be honest, the phone doesnt make that much different to the speed of a loading video.
Make sure its using WiFi and not data to load the video.
Also make sure a computer/laptop doesnt do it.
If it does then your WiFi needs to be quicker

if you do do this test, do it on wifi, in the same place you would normally do it on your phone. don't cheat by plugging in the cable.

Yes...
I didn't mean put your laptop by your router, and run down the road with your phone?
Haha
Stock 1.29 and YouTube works perfect when I am on 3.2mbps speed WiFi and it buffers when I am slow net. It is depends on WiFi .

lol, not to say that this applies to the OP, but some people do need very very very specific instructions, i bet you 98% of people would do just the above lol.

I believe yours is an isolated problem. My friends' and mine are perfect; plays INSTANTLY, videos are crisp, and continue to be so all the way. This is over WiFi, and I play mostly 1080p or 720p when available.
So, check your hotspot...maybe you have a free-loader in your hood
Mine plays totally fine 8Mbps down, with ARHD 9.3.1.
Only thing i've found with it since i got my HOX, was the constant stuttering on sound. Stopped using it now as its annoying,
It depends on the video IME. Even on my hardwired desktop with a 60meg connection, youtube often pauses to buffer.

[Q] screen issues

Hey guys hopefully somebody can help me...for whatever reason when I'm screening videos my screen goes dark but the video keeps playing...when I tap on the screen the picture returns, but it happens every 5 seconds or so...the weird thing is it's only when I'm streaming...when I am watching videos stored on my phone it works fine, does this happen to anyone else

it only happens to me when I am playing content inside the web browser and only from certain sites. nba.com does it quite a bit for me.
Any video in an app works great, video stored on the device works great.
No idea why, I assumed that it had to do with support for flash or some such funny business.

It happens to me even in apps like YouTube and IMDB and ESPN...I can't figure it out
It's only happening on chrome for me. On Boat browser it works perfect.

this is a good point and video seems to work on Dolphin for me. Chrome has been the problem for me.
if you go to settings>developer options and click disable hw overlays it will fix the problem. but you have to disable it after every reboot is the bad part.

Was going to say the same thing, it's a JellBean thing. Option wasn't even there on ICS.

[Q] Sound glitching

So I know there's some issues with the sound on the Nexus 7 when the volumes are low.
But haven't read about anyone having issues like this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Nhy4sdjDXY&feature=youtube_gdata_player
This happens every couple of minutes, some shorter, some longer, when playing videos and broken sword ( only game it happends ).
Rooted using CM11, been happening for a long time. Haven't tried a complete wipe, thought I would ask here first for any opinions.
Yeah I had that. Flashing Glitch kernel seems to have fixed it.

Nice, 30 minutes of YouTube played, no screams from the speaker yet. Makes me wish I didn't sit on my finger for 4 months before taking actions, Darwin knows I've been startled many times when watching videos late night.
Thanks.

Screen Flicker Issue on Honor 7X BND-AL10 (Chinese Version)

I just bought the phone and I'm experiencing a screen flickering. At the time it occurs the screen becomes unresponsive. The bottom 3/4th part turns black. It keeps on flickering. The audio works when it occurs, but touch won't . It happens occasionally.
.
.
.
Maybe it occurs coz one day my phone dropped to the ground.
Any help would be appreciated.
[Update] : This happens only when using YouTube for a long time.

Probably due to hardware damage.

Thats the problem of YouTube not of the phone
Contacted huawei customer care regarding the same problem, they gave me an ota update which fixed the problem.
I used to get it but stopped having it. i didnt get any update. maybe it was youtubes issue after all
It's because of in-built YouTube application.. same happening to me as well. Finding a way to uninstall in-built YouTube app and download it again from playstore
It's not the phone's fault
YouTube isn't optimised for the phone yet so there might be some issues like the one you mentioned, but i haven't seen this problem yet at all.
Thank you everyone those who answered my question.
The problem was solved after clearing the data and updating the app.
