YouTube app - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

There is a buffering problem when watching videos. The video plays for about 8 secs and then buffers. This process repeats throughout the video. Any help? :/

I don't have any buffering problems with my N7 at all. Are you sure it's not your internet? Have u try running a speed test?

Nope, my internet is running download speeds of 5-6mbps. Don't know what it is.

Maybe use the Clean Sweep app and SD Maid to clean things up. It can make a huge difference especially if your storage is getting full.

YouTube not caching data?

I've got a small issue. Whenever I am watching a YouTube video and I use app switching to respond to a text message, when I return to the video it has lost all of the loaded video and has to rebuffer. Is there a fix for this as it is very inconvenient.

That's how the app is written.

That's what I thought. Its extremely annoying though, for an OS trying to do multitasking it doesn't really make sense.

Dead Trigger Issue

When I load into a mission the first few seconds of game play stutters a lot.
Is this a common issue and is there any way to fix this?
I am using TeamEos ROM.
Thanks

If it doesn't bother you you can change from ultra high settings too high this solves the problem for me

Ultra high works fine for me .never had a issue yet ....besides losing all my crap when they updated it keep force closing if we had the first release of dead trigger ..so I had to re install....
The posted the info about updating a few days after.........
Either than that no issues on updated version

Youtube playing on background?

Hey everyone
i was wondering how to play youtube videos on the background so i can multitask. Right now if i play a video on youtube i have to stay on that video for it to be playing.
I wanna listen to music from youtube while im reading a book, since i dont ever download songs to my nex 7.
My friend can do it with his iphone 5, i saw him playing a song from youtube while his phone was locked.
Any ideas? Or am i missing an app or aomething?

I use the YouTube Player by FREEdi. Here's the link for the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsInR3LmNvbS5mcmVlZGkueW91dHViZS5wbGF5ZXIiXQ..
It works great! There's an iOS version too, just in case you have an iOS device.

You can install BSplayer that allow you to reduce vids in a small pop up who keeps playing while you're doing something else with your phone...
This is great info, be nice if Youtube natively supported playing in the background like Tunein Radio. I'll give this a go later on too.
Another option is StickIt:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sImNvbS5teWJveWZyaWVuZGlzYWdlZWsuc3RpY2tpdCJd
it gives you pop up windows you can resize and place over other apps or keep on your homescreen.

[Q] screen turns off during video.

I'm running the most recent update XenonHD. My screen times out when I'm watching a video on the CNET app or streaming anything on the browser but doesn't do it on YouTube. I would like to fix the issue and not download a app like I have been doing for some time now.
Thanks. Shane

Mediaserver?

My battery stats say that Mediaserver has kept my device awake for 2h 13m. Is this considered a wake lock? If so, how should I go about finding the app?

Google for mediaserver battery drain, known issue if I am not wrong. There are a few things you can do described in the appropriate threads.

I would believe it but I had like 1h 30m screen time, barely any of which was YouTube.

I think it can also be an issue with a messed up video file
