On my HTC Titan streaming videos is a mess. YouTube or any other HTML5 videos lag and stutter like nuts when playing. It's actually frustrating and embarassing to try and show a video to someone. And it's not a buffering issue I assure you.
I'm wondering how it compares on the Lumia 900.. How do you guys find video playback? More specifically YouTube or streaming playback?
I'm experiencing the same thing. Never really noticed it until you mentioned it. I just went to the YouTube app and played a whole bunch of videos. I'm connected to WiFi, but still got a bunch of lag and stutter. Not sure if it's data, or video processing issue.
No stuttering here on Lumia 900
none here, streams perfect in high quality too
Ok, it's my wireless in the house. When I go to the ATT network, it's much smoother. I must have something downloading somewhere.
Does anyone else have the same problem with Instagram? Every video is choppy and the audio is out of sync, no matter how many programs I'm running. My galaxy s3 didn't have trouble with videos, why does this Intel Atom 2.3ghz?
I have this problem too..And same in snapchat..In google chrome.. Everywhere..
Two steps forward, one step back I guess.
For anyone with the same problem (which I assume is everyone judging from the ASUS forums), installing the system update from settings will sort of solve the issue. It kinda fixes playing videos in a web browser and Instagram videos play well the first time through. When the Instagram video repeats, only the audio will play and no video will be shown. Video playback on a web browser is laggy but at least its in sync.
These are really inexcusable issues for the phone, and only further shows how much of a budget chinaphone it is. I would have returned it and gotten a one plus one if neweggs return policy were better.
I have been noticing small stutter while playing videos which are stored or while playing on youtube this can also be noticed while playing games and sometimes while playing videos on facebook and instagram
Is there any fix for this problem
Is anyone else experiencing videos on Facebook or instagram playing choppy??
It seems when I play certain videos the first frame of the video will flash repeatedly through the entire video.. It's like the video skips a frame and you see the very first frame in its place and then keeps playing normal until it happens again like up to 10 times per video
It's also pausing on its own
Yeah exactly the same on my s8...
same here as well
Also having the same issue
having same issue, i believe it's due to verizon throttling video quality. from what i read, videos now play at 480p, if you want to unlock full HD playback, it'll coat $10 extra per month on your plan...
Strange that it only happens with FB videos not YouTube or Netflix
Is there any end to Verizon's nickel and dime to death approach?
Same
Same here, on an S8+. Video will start, play for about 4 seconds, jump back, sometime pause, then continue playing, and repeating the same skip a few times throughout the video.
I don't think it's Verizon because I have Att and having the same issue with my note 8
I'm experiencing the same thing, it's only happening on Facebook and with my Galaxy S8. There's nothing posted from Facebook or anywhere else saying they've established a fix or working on one.
Note: I'm in England and on the Three network, my home Wi-Fi connection is virgin media.

It recently started happening on my gf's S6. I've tried Verizon support and they blame fb no surprise there..
Disable the video enhancer option in advance settings. That caused me multiple video streaming issues on my note 8.
It happens to me on Wifi too, so don't think it's Verizon, also had the issue when i was with T-Mobile N7 and S7. Also i tried disabling the video enhancer like failtorespond suggested. Still get random pauses on Facebook videos. I blame Facebook's buggy app
Just tried turning off video enhancer, didn't resolve issue... on note 8
I just installed the latest beta apk from apkmirror, so far no issues with video playback no pauses. If anyone else wants to test here is the link.

This is happening to me too and it is only on Facebook. I have Note 8 on the Optus network.
I'm experiencing the same thing- Facebook video gets choppy, displaying the first frame of the video for a split second then resuming. Super annoying! Galaxy S8 here on T-Mobile, video throttling turned OFF for my account, wifi through Spectrum.
i find that I only have issues when the phone is in portrait mode when trying to watch facebook videos. Try turning the phone to landscape and see if your video plays okay. Guessing it's a Facebook app issue.
Yeah, I've been having the same issue with my Samsung S8+ since Facebook pushed a recent update, maybe a week and a half ago. It's got to be Facebook, YouTube is fine, Kodi is fine, and it's happening over both cellular and Wi-Fi networks.
The issue that i am currently having is certain video sources (facebook, youtube, Crunchy Roll) have this issue of every time i play or resume a video after a quick second the video essentially stutter for .2-.5 seconds and leave a really noticeable delay in audio. Does anyone else have this issue? My mi mix 2 is on the latest updates and i've tried clearing out cache in apps and restarting the phone a few times.
