Streaming video stuttering after update - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have no root, just a standard note 2 that worked perfect, after upgrading to 4.3, I cannot steam anything from my pc to my phone with wifi without stuttering.
Tried every player. This worked perfect before the upgrade.
And I'm a big movie viewer on my mobile.
Anyone an idea?

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

Streaming media from computer to phone without wifi

So my basic problem is that I have a lot of media on my home desktop. It's a home built machine that has no sounds and runs windows xp
I have no problem streaming video over wifi. Everything works absolutely fine that way.
What I want to know is how to open media that's on my computer from a remote location (using a separate wifi network)
I'm currently using team viewer for remote access and it works for many things but it doesn't allow me to stream video to my phone. It allows me to play video on my computer and to view it but this is useless without sound
I'm considering trying to make a vpn but I'm not very computer literate.
Any suggestions?

No such thing has been done yet to my understanding, you can only stream over a WI-FI network so far

I think I might have found a solution and I feel sort of like an idiot. I'll test it out tonight and see if it works.

splashtop remote transmits sound
I'm trying the emit app it seems to work but I'll have to try it at work. As I said I feel dumb finding this a few hours after posting
I do seem to experience a lot of lag on videos so I guess that's my next problem to fix.

Emit works fine over the net (both on my own wifi and using my cell phones Ltd or other computers on different networks)
However lag when using it over cell broadcast is pretty bad and I'm trying to find a way to improve it

Netflix in HD with root?

Anyone here rooted and or with a custom ROM able to get Netflix to play at 1080p? Mine won't. Don't know of its because of root, deodex, not stock, slow internet, etc. Anyone able to chime in?

The most I've gotten is 720p, but I've read in the CleanRom thread that Hulu will play 1080p. The problem is either Netflix or your internet speed.

How can you tell if its playing in 720 or 1080 p? I just played the expendables 2 and it looks very good but I don't see where it said what quality.
So here is what I can tell you, you have video quality settings in your account on Netflix. Set that to best, then you have to have a high speed internet, even at that apparently to get HD your ISP has to have signed with Netflix for Netflix to stream it.
I noticed that my Google play movies will not play in HD on anything but the stock ROM. I can be rooted and get HD but not on a custom rom. Cleanrom won't even work. This is weird to me.

Netflix will range from low quality to HD to 1080p(if supported). 1080p on a 7" tab is overkill and much more bandwidth intensive. It would be skipping all over unless you have an almost flawless connection.

Netflix has been updated to work flawlessly on JB 4.3 !
Just update it
Does anyone know what shows/movie support 1080p right now?

[Q] Video content Apps LAG when playing HQ videos in HULU/NETFLIX

Looking to see if anyone else has the problem with the video stutters but audio is fine in apps like HULU or Netflix. For my note 3 it feels like the apps are not updated to support this awsome device yet. Does anyone notice this or have the same problem? Or is it just my Note?
Hulu lags for me too and I'm on strong wifi. No idea what's wrong

My note stutters on hulu too.
Sent from my SM-N900T
I msged hulu trying to get this fixed and they won't help me it looks like without proving my IMEI number which is just plain dumb.
Has anyone found a solution for this or is it just certain devices? It is very bothersome not being able to use apps.
I get stutters on any 1080p YouTube video and any video inside of chrome or stock browser.

Really? Man this just doesn't make sense. This thing is a powerhouse and it can't play videos. ...Samsung FAIL

[Q] Video Playback

Just wondering if anyone else experiences pauses/jitters while watching videos from the Samsung hub on their Video player? I watched two movies now (42 and Despicable Me 2) and both would slightly pause or jitter while watching the movie. Happened maybe a dozen or so times throughout the movie. Is this just the video player sucking or is this pretty common with tablets? Thanks
Use moboplayer

I used to use moboplayer but i find MX Player the best.

This happens to me everytime I watch a movie. I would think , with the good specs of this tablet, that I could watch an entire movie without those hiccups..... I'm looking forward to root, debloat, and try some custom roms, but i am in no hurry to do it quite yet.
