[Q] Can 10.1 2014 Play 1080p Youtube Videos - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

I know this device can play 1080p videos as I have tested this across my internal network. But it seems this device does not play videos (in 1080p) using the youtube app.
For example, if I play big buck bunny on my tablet it looks to only play it in 720p. I confirmed this by trying to load it up in the 3rd party app tubemate and it only shows options for 720p. Obviously this is not the best quality available because if you go to the video from your computer there is a 1080p option.
At any rate, has anyone else noticed this and is there a workaround or is youtube somehow blocking my device from the 1080p stream?
Thanks in advance.

I think you need a modified YouTube app that can be found somewhere else on xda, not sure if it will work on tablets though. You can also try Viral floating YouTube app

I have been using JetVD for ages, and it supports 1080p. Usually download clips through that app though, not watch.

Thanks for the replies guys but I think I found my answer. Apparently google/youtube is doing something on their side to make it difficult to get 1080p streams from mobile devices. I checked the thread below from one of the developers and he stated google has changed something to where you can't access the 1080p streams. At least not at the moment
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2413078&page=23
@Ettepetje I tried the jetvd app you mentioned using the latest version on their website and it too suffers from the same problem. Only 720p videos are available for download or watching.
@ChrisNee1988 Thanks for mentioning Viral. The link I posted above is from the developer's thread. That is where I found out 1080p streams are somehow being blocked by google.
I guess the next question is why would google do this? I have a device capable of resolutions beyond 1080p but yet I'm limited to a 720p stream.

Have you tried more than one clip? Not all is available, but many you can find in 1080p, at least on my phone I can.

Yep, I tried 5 different versions of big buck bunny as well multiple 1080p nature videos which I know for certain have 1080p counterparts and still the same result. I tried this on my galaxy note II and note 10.1 2014 and both have the same problem. The weird part is that applications like tubemate will even give me the option of downloading the 720p 3D version but not the 1080p version. Very odd indeed. if you know of any other apps to try let me know.

Can you watch 1080P Youtube video's from the stock browser in desktop mode?

sorry, I should've mentioned that earlier. I can get 1080p videos to play if I open the stock android browser and request the desktop site. After that, if I select the gear icon at the bottom to choose the resolution it gives the 1080p option.
Unfortunately, that solution is a little tedious. Not to mention it makes navigation a little more difficult when you're trying to watch a lot of videos.

HDMI with browser videos?

Just ordered my HDMI cable and wanted to know is it possible to watch movies from the internet on my TV. Like hulu or megavideo? Idk if there r any hacks or custom rims I'm new sorry. And thanks
Anyone have an answer? Please
Works fine for me. Youtube and other movie sites that I frequent play through hdmi to my hdtv.
The image displayed on your tv will be the size that would he displayed on your evo so don't expect any kind of fullscreen display. The evo acts as the movie controls when using the hdmi video out.
Looks great on my 55 and 60, don't know jow it would look on something smaller.
Thanks. But your saying that its only gonna be like 5 in on the screen? Bc that's how big it would be on the evo..? Kinda confused

Yes that's exactly what I am saying. The screen resolution that would be displayed on the evo is what would be displayed on your tv. Slighty bigger of course on the tv but not fullscreen.

What ROM are you using that allows this functionality!??!
I believe Youtube should work, and so should any video that's played through the system's media player, but not the hulu app (The hulu app is just a tweaked browser). HDMI out doesn't show what's on your Evo's screen, it shows what's either playing through the built in system player (so RockPlayer, etc. doesn't show) or what the default slideshow app is showing.
Also, don't see why you can't fill your screen with the video. On all of my TVs, I can generally stretch out my videos to the extent of the screen's edges at about 720p.

I think you're confusing yourself. I never said the evo screen is displayed. The op asked about video being displayed through hdmi and I said it works fine for me.
As for not being fullscreen, the image passed from the evo through hdmi gets pixelated as it is. Do you really want to stretch that? I pass my hdmi cable through my denon receiver which does not upconvert hdmi signals....only analog. Even at that, stretching through my receiver or tv distorts the already pixelated image. But hey, if you want to stretch your images thats on you.

The Evo's screen resolution doesn't determine the resolution of the video being sent out through HDMI. That's determined by the resolution of the video file or stream itself. For instance, I play a lot of 720p videos from vimeo.com, and they appear to stream through the Evo and out the HDMI as their full 720p. And I'm 100% sure that 720p video files playing directly from the Evo go out as 720p through HDMI. I do that all the time and it looks great. Of course, a lot of stuff on youtube and other sites aren't very high resolution, or you may be served lower resolution versions since you're on a mobile platform. Those would look like crap if they were stretched to full screen on a big TV. But my point is, it's the video site, not the Evo or its screen size that determines it.

meaning the resolution of the video file on the evo screen when watching browser videos (such as youtube, vimeo, etc) would be displayed. I said don't expect fullscreen which pertained to MOST video sites (youtube as an example) that do not stream full 720p video all the time. If you are watching a true 720p file on the evo and output it through hdmi of course it will be fullscreen 720p. When watching youtube videos and you watch the sd versions it won't be fullscreen.
The op never asked about 720p videos in the first place only simply hdmi and browser videos. Like I said, most browser videos are not in full 720p. And if you have to stretch a file to fit a 720p screen it's not a native 720p.
I was answering the op staying within the bounds of his question but everyone else had to take it beyond what he asked. No where in the op's title or first post did he mention anything about 720p output through hdmi. The question was simply enough if hdmi worked for browser videos.

Understandable, which is why I stayed within the bounds of the ops question. While what I said was not misinformation, I probably could have worded it better. Either way, I do believe I made the points that pertained to the op's question clear.

The simple answer is it should since it would most likely play through the stock media player.
I use a modified stock rom and kings kernel so ymmv depending on the way you have your system setup. But if you are on a stock rom and a kernel that supports hdmi out you should be fine. I am work now so can't test megavideo but youtube, vimeo, etc. all play fine for me through hdmi.

[Q] Video playback fluidity / support on GN and over MHL?

All the reviews I have seen so far completely ignore media playback on the GN, or give it only a passing mention.
I'm really interested to know how well it handles media playback - AVI, MKV etc both on it's own screen, and over MHL to an HDMI connected screen - along with which specific MHL adaptor was used.
The SGS2 and HTC Sensation for example seem similar in spec, but when detailed reviews started coming in, it was clear the SGS2 was far superior in terms of media playback - both formats supported and fluidity of playback.
I'd love to get a GN, but I really need to know if the media playback is 'great' - and by great I mean 100% fluid on any reasonable file (up to 720p movies for example) - no skips, no out of sync etc... I'd also really like to know how well the MHL works in playing movies back on an HDMI connected screen - is it the same in terms of fluidity? What audio is sent over the cable?
Unfortunately here in New Zealand the device isn't released so I can't go try one myself, or else I would have already!
I'm not afraid of buying a good app if that's what it takes to have perfectly fluid playback - love to hear experiences with both the native and 3rd party payers on the GN.
Cheers - Neil G
I would also like to know about this.
Thanks
Theres a Diceplayer thread that says MKV work well, ive tried the trial version of it with 1 720p tv episode and it looked great.
not got any hdmi cables so cant test that but looked great on the phone.
AVI wasnt as good tho with what looked like a low fps problem.
do a forum search for Diceplayer for a bit more info.

Yea and the developer posted something about fixes for AVI, so that bug should be gone soon. Diceplayer might be the best choice for GN as of now.
EDIT: Actually MX Player seems to be updated and people are reporting better playback than Diceplayer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362375
It works fine over MHL and on Diceplayer, i've recorded a video of it.
Uploading atm, I have poor upload speed so it'll be a while till I can link you.
Help please
I really want to buy this phone but i'm waiting to see how the volume issue resolves. But one of my major considerations is video playback. I have a huge collection of blu ray rips(1080p and 720p) and most of them are .mkv; does the galaxy nexus natively support .mkv files? Is there any file size limit on videos i put in the device?(the rips range from 3gb to 10gb). I know that the galaxy nexus doesn't support USB mass storage... does that stop me from transferring natively unsupported file types to the phone? Any help would be greatly appreciated
I believe Nexus does have USB storage.
For the MKV, it does play them natively, can you post a short sample? We could then give it a try. Two players are supposed to be able to play with hardware acceleration: Diceplayer and MX Player.
From what I know, 720p is not a problem at all. 1080p, might depend on bitrate and other things.
Finally got the video uploaded.
Includes play of 720p + 1080p files.
Good value imo, works well and doesn't look or feel too cheap.
Thanks for the video samples!
Thankyou sir, that's _exactly_ what I was looking for. I think I see some jumpiness in the playback, but I suspect that's actually youtube's fault. Certainly seems to handle 720 and 1080 fine.
Could you link to the exact MHL adaptor your purchased please?

It was checking out my friend's Galaxy Nexus and we noticed he had to install the codec pack on Android Market for MX Player before it allowed HW-accelerated playback of the specific clip he used, even though it played back fine in the stock player (though no sound). With the codec pack he could set it to HW for the video and SW for the sound. In the end it worked out great and I was surprised, considering the table of supported formats on developer.android.com didn't list MKV + h.264 as a supported format.
I've been using Dice Player and MX Video Player for 720P .mkv files on both my Thunderbolt and Rezound. The Thunderbolt had sync issues(even overclocked). With the Rezound, most of the time playback is fine, but occasionally will have a slight sync issue here & there.
Considering the specs of both the Nexus and the Rezound though, even with a possible 'stock' issue, it'd just be a matter of eventually loading a custom ROM & some minor modifications/tweaks here & there.
Another video demo (though not specifically of the Nexus). MHL is just mirroring so there's no difference in playback. If it works on the phone, it's exactly the same mirrored.
I can also confirm that it natively plays back AVIs (Xvid), sample: http://www.multiupload.com/GML7HC3HHM

It's off ebay, item no 220897013161.
Can get the same thing a bit cheaper from HK if you're prepared to wait a few weeks.
The jumpiness might have been because I had a lot of apps open at the same time, I just tried playing back the same files and they were perfectly smooth with only the browser open.
Again, thanks OP - really great info and I've just ordered and paid for a Galaxy Nexus from Clove
Cheers - Neil G
Just an update to the 'clipping' on the home screen, you need to switch OFF 'overscan' in the TV menu settings, it should look like this:

Most of my files are MKV x264. 720p plays in hardware perfectly. I don't have many 1080p to try. also, 1080 move plays almost perfectly.
The only 1080p mkv x264 I have doesn't play in hardware for some reason.
Edit: MX Player seems best for me.

Video stuttering

Hello everyone. At first I have to say that english isn't my first language so please be understanding.
I've just bought new Note 3 and was pleased with it, until I've found that something is wrong with playing videos. When I try to watch some videos(for example anime) online, it is stuttering. Audio is ok but video lags like hell. Lets take videos from www*auby*no/files/video_tests/ (sorry I had to change "." with "*" because I was unable to post link to another site )as an examples.First I tried playing them online using official player and MX Player(using hardware decoding and software decoding). Then I downloaded them and tried playing again. While playing online using official player, every movie except Shrinkage and Shrinkage 2 was choppy. Playing them with use of MX Player with H/W resulted int the same thing(video lags), but when I changed to S/W everything run smoothly(except first two movies). Next I downloaded them and again tried to play them with official player, and guess what? Everything was ok. The same was with MX Player with H/W and of course S/W.
I also tried to play movies online with worse resolution (480p) and they were ok but other videos with 720p were stuttering. I also tried to play video in 720p using mobile-friendly online player and had lags, but when I played THE SAME video using not mobile-friendly online player(with usage of Flash Player) it was ok...
So dear friends I don't know what to do so I am counting on your help, because I really want to be able to watch movies online on this badass screen.
Try DicePlayer. Still one of the best players IMO, and one of the few that can play videos directly off of Windows network shares (though I use ES File Explorer to browse and Dice to play)
No stutter here playing even 10+Mbps 1080p h264 over wireless from samba shares on my NAS. (Haven't tried 20Mbps yet)
Well, I've tried this DicePlayer and it is really nice but only with playing videos where I can choose which player to use. If I, for example want to watch a movie on dailymotion I can't choose if I want to use MxPlayer or DicePlayer or something else. I have to watch it using dailymotion player (right?) and using these kind of players make videos stutter. That's my problem.
Note 3 has a problem. Verizon and ATT versions also show stuttering when streaming video. I have it in YouTube and other videos that streamed from a website.
We shouldn't have to use third party players, especially when it's not even an option (can't choose one) or in the case of youtube it's an app. This is nonsense. Samsung needs to address this issue. How can we contact them? I've been trying to figure that out.

I never said it was every handset. But I've seen complaints regarding this issue on t mobile, verizon, att and the international version. I haven't checked others.
Try any hd video. They show it the most. But if you don't have the issue I don't expect you to see symptoms.
Try another browser with java support like maxthon
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
Ok. I've noticed another thing. Stuttering happens only with films in HD. For example I've played some film from vimeo in (probably) 480p and it was fine, but after playing it in 720p lags occurred. Also I've tried maxthon but it didn't help.
So, to sum up everything for now, stuttering occurs when I try to play HD films online, where I can't choose players like DicePlayer or MxPlayer and have to use "built-in" online players (for example on Dailymotion or Vimeo) and also when I try to play films online (which I can play using players on my note) using official player or MxPlayer with H/W or H/W+.
I talked to Samsung via Chat and the guy said he's never heard of this issue. I find that amazing since I've seen the complaints all versions of the Note 3.
We shouldn't have to watch videos in 480p and we shouldn't have to switch browsers. All this does is try to avoid running into a problem that shouldn't be there to begin with.
It's a high end device with a low end problem. Something is wrong. I suggest you all that are having issues to tell Samsung about it. Call or chat or do some type of communication.
I've talked with someone from samsung via live chat and he said that if phone doesn't have problem with playing films on sd card it isn't problem with phone itself. He also said that he will pass it to proper department. Also doesn't this problem seem like this one? Maybe it's not problem with note 3 but with JB 4.3?
Yeah you're right, can't stream some HD videos, especially on vimeo. Youtube is fine for me on full hd. Anything downloaded plays perfectly though.
I've had this issue on two different T-Mobile notes. HD videos in any browser for me stutter. I'm hoping its software related and can get patched soon.

I hope that it will come out soon if it's software related, because if it was hardware related I would have to change it and it restrains me for now from rooting it.

Anybody Getting Youtube in 4K

I just came across this article that says YouTube is now playing videos in 1440p.
I'm not seeing this as an option for the videos I see when I search "4K"
Is there something I have to do, or just wait for an update?
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/youtube-app-support-2k-video-t2841657, just tested, video in 4K are awesome.

When trying to watch a 4k/UHD video on YouTube app, hit settings gear and you should see if the option for 1440 if you have the updated app.
2560x1440 is Quad HD.
3840x2160 is 4k.
YouTube will show videos in QuadHD (1440) in mobile devices
You need to update YouTube to last available version 5.9.0.10

You can't watch 4K video on YT in mobile. Only 2K option is available in the newest version.

YouTube doesn't even support 4k but there is a new update in which you can view videos in 1440p if the video is even uploaded in that high of a resolution.

You have to update the YouTube app either through the play store or manually.

Videos should be able to be viewed if they are available in 1440p or higher, just look up "4k video" and it should output after setting.
If it doesn't output, what version of YouTube do you have? Can be viewed under the Apps section in settings.

I have the same YouTube version and I have the choice to watch some videos in 1440p. I don't know what's going on with your phone but I hope you can figure it out!

I realy don't know what do
The official youtube application for android doesnt support resolution higher than 720p. Either install the application Viral Popup (youtube player) for a resolution up to 1080p or view the video from within a suitable browser. I ve heard that the lg g3 supports flash playback. If your browser can not play flash content then install the hacked version of flash player and the dolphin browser and you re set.

This is completely false. The official YT app will support up to 2k on compatible phones with 2k screens.
The official youtube app supports up to 1440p on the G3 and has done for nearly 2 months now, I use it all the time.
OP, I am not sure why you are not seeing it, have you tried to remove youtube (if system app "uninstall updates), wipe cache and data, reboot then reinstall and see if it works then.
Did u modify your phone resolution or dpi?

Do you have to be connected to Wi-Fi to stream that type of quality?
