This is caused because the official youtube app plays at 480p resolution and you cant change it to hd quality. Either watch your videos from a browser that can play flash videos ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2579795) or use an alternative youtube app like this one here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529715

I am pretty sure I watched a video today on the stock YouTube app and I had it in he and was able to change it to sd or add.close captioning

I experienced the same issue in KitKat but its lagging in every quality. I heard that some people got für same problem in für G2. Maybe its caused by a too low CPU frequency vor something like this. Using cm solves the Problem on the g2 so I'm thinking about switching to cm, has anyone with these issues tested how it works on cm?
Thanks in advance

[Q] Youtube App SM-T217S

The (Official) YouTube App's playback quality is awful. I've tried several different HD enabled videos and they all look blurry or pixilated. Not sure what the issue is.
When going to www.YouTube.com (web app) the playback is fine.
Anyone have any idea why this is? I've played around with playback quality settings with no effect.
Not a big deal, just that that was a strange bug.
If you're rooted, you can try this:

If not, try to install anyway. It's worth a try!

I think it also has something to do with the quality of the video. If the quality is low, the video wont have a HD option.
Hope this helps.

It's not the video, I think. I have ogYoutube and official Youtube apps. Same thing with both of them. I have H+ connection btw.
I saw a tweak in custom rom to make youtube videos play in hd. Is there a way to do this with mobile data connection too?

[Q] Snapchat Video Recording/Playback Error

I'm using a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S2 on CM11 with TWRP. I cannot seem to get video recording or playback (although I am not very sure about video playback, I've only received pictures in the past while) to work. With an older version of Snapchat, video recording appears to work but then right before I am about to send the video, a message pops up and says that it cannot play the video. Is this related to "Camcorder does not actually record to storage" in the TeamChopsticks "Known Issues That Will Be Fixed"? If not, is there a way that I can fix this?

I've been having this problem with all jellybean ROMs, including stock.
I'm with ya, most likely a Jellybean problem. So if you absolutely need it, maybe revert to an ICS rom or go to stock.

Okay...so I just got snapchat. Never used that before...LOL. So im guessing when you record the video...it dosent play back, right? Do you get to the part where after you record and it plays back? Or is it when you send....it dosent work at all? I havent sent one yet...but I will test more...but I had a camera problem and combined a lot of peoples ways to make it work. I can record at 1080p, I can watch what i filmed, and my gallery dosent FC and reboot phone. I am on UB4.0final, but that camera had issues so I did some research and tested stuff out and now I have what I have...LOL. Let me know if I was right bout the video play back after you record or is it just sending and I will try to help you guys out best I can

the only fix I've found is to use an older version of snapchat , but you unfortunately lose many of the newer features
You wouldn't happen to have an older version would you

working version
I have had these problems too, I find that the version that works is SnapChat 3.07, lets you use front and rear cam for pics and video with no issues.
I just googled for the APK
Im running CM 11 nightlies. I think it's something to do with video framework. I have similar problems with the Tiny Chat app.
I tried googling but couldn't find it could you pm me a link

[Q] Youtube low resolution

Good day,
I just noticed that the youtube videos in app only go up to 360p. This is horrible. Is anyone else have the same problem? Is it just version related?
Thanks

That how the default YouTube app for Android. If you want higher, you need to root the phone and use a modded version of youtube.

In that case I would say that a Google problem? In any case, there are modded youtube app on XDA that allows 720/1080p.
It sx, I might take a look to modded apps or mod this one myself, if I find how.

If you're rooted change your android version in build.prop to 4.4.2 or 4.4.4. Then reboot and 480p will appear. 720p or higher are useless on a qHD screen.
If you want to have 720p, install app settings and then edit screen option for youtube to 600x1024, it will appear 720p option
(for better result use dpi 220 and font scale 90 too)
On xda you can find a modded Youtube version that supports 720p & 1080p. It also supports "play while screen off" = the best feature ever! Works great on my S4 Mini!
