[Q] HD video streaming issue - Huawei Ascend P6, Mate

Every time I try to watch an HD video in YouTube, or on the web, it buffers every few seconds, even though my internet connection is fine. I'm able to watch the same videos on my HTC Desire S, without it even buffering.
I've tried it on b122, B119, and the latest b118 (cn). All of them do the same thing, and it's extremely annoying!
Am I the only one with this problem, and how can I fix it?

Both on Wifi and 3g ? For wifi I'd suggest changing the channel. Try a Wifi Scanner for any other networks overlapping with yours.

I haven't tried it on 3G yet, as data is a bit expensive, but like I said, it works perfectly on my Desire S.

I find the nexus 7 streams movies better. The P6 seems to stop and buffer. Is there a setting in MX player to change the buffer sizes? As the P6 downloads files on same the network ok?

I'm afraid I don't use MX player, so I can't help you with that, sorry.

Does any one know how to make streaming movies better in MX player or any other player better on this device?

I have problems playing videos on my phone. On YouTube and MX. The MX problems are even with videos stored on my internal SD. I'm using CleanROM btw.
The MX videos hang up for 2 second every time I try to pause or do anything. To solve it I just decode them using software instead of hardware. You can go to options and enable HW+ which uses less battery than SW decoding.
The thing is that YouTube doesn't have this options and the interface freezes for everything.

It's a ROM relatet issue. Try B125, it is the latest firmware, International.

I already tried it with B125 when it was released, and it was the same.

Playing .mkv over network

Anyone successfully played a 720/1080p file over their network?
Ive tried all the players but just seems to stutter like crazy!
Used to use diceplayer on my HOX with the dts plugin and had no probs.
Anyone got a player/settings thats working?

VLC Direct
When you say playing over the network you mean accessing the share via dice or play stream via upnp?
I assume you mean the first. I too use dice with plugin and noticed indeed reltively frequent stuttering when acessing share from dice but using buble upnp all is fine against an xbmc server without any transcoding and dice so that is what I use and it is fine for me.
Also compared to gtab 7.7 less powerful HW I noticed wifi on note2 to be more sensible; I mean if I watch mkv covering fully the device with my palm I get problem. Of course cant really do that with the 7.7
So other than that all is quite fine on my side. I really do suspect though accessing cifs gives bad throughput somehow. I use omega 3 and cifs.ko copying stuff from a share is abnormally skow for me.

Use es file explorer and play through stock player.

Actually tried playing though the bsplayer app itself and its much improved although its struggling with 1080p
Will give your tips a try, thanks

doesn't make sense, he said it does so with every video
Try using ' MX Player ' or ' Mobo Player ' they both have hardware and software support, you could alternate.

Indeed, I noticed a similar issue. Sometimes it stops buffering for some reason. However other applications are working fine.
I'm on Youtube version 5.0.21.

Youtube 5.0 - 2G problem

My official app of youtube say UNSUPPORTED VIDEO everytime i try to see one video with 2G/3G/H connection
But the same videos work great in wifi connection.
Why? Any solution?

you could search for a older version of youtube in hopes that that will fix your problem, honestly i have Wifi issues, shows the whole video is loaded but i keep getting the loading screen :/
doesnt help that There is no way to notify google of this problem (well there is but google will ignore you :/)

YouTube only 480p

A lot of YouTube video's are only watchable in 480p, but oneplus 3 has a 1080p display. How to fix this ?
( Btw, the video's are not uploaded in 480p )
TIA
Must be a setting in your phone. Here everything in 1080p on my OPO3
try clearing cache. (maybe delete app data) I had this issue on my old phone.
for a permanent fix try using the 1080p 60fps guide on xda (just linked below)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/guide-how-to-enable-720p-1080p-60fps-t3406072
I found out that i only have this problem with a few channels, i can watch other channels in 1080p.
And i don't have a rooted device
Clearing cache, data, etc. didn't work
For example,
I can watch this one in 1080p :
And I can watch this one only in 480p :
Same problem here and yes it is only with some channels. The option just isn't there
Maybe your data connection? When I'm on a weak connection I can't seem to get a high resolution either. Also YouTube settings change to 1080.
Same problem for me too. Wth...

3.1.2 and yeah I'm rooted with xposed. I'm getting a replacement for weak/intermittent signal for Wi-Fi and network. I'm curious if it's gonna happen on the new one.

I'm only on wifi, with the speedtest.net app i tested my connection and it is around 90 mbps, so i don't think that that is the problem
Same problem here.
I'm also having the exact same issue. Both on LTE and Wi-Fi, complete stock not even rooted.
I cleared the YouTube app data and it seems to be working correctly now.
Correction, not all vids to be corrected. It seems like if the video is offered with 1080p and 60fps then we only get the option for 480p. No idea why.
I have the same annoying problem. All videos only show 480p option. I'm stock on OOS 3.1.2.
Edit: Tried watching a 4K video (I know our display is only 1080p) but in this video it gave me the option for 1080p but on videos that are in 1080p it only gives me the option for 480p wth?
Extremely frustrating. It doesn't make any sense at all.
