I've installed several version of Froyo on my Eris, and each one has severe video lag while browsing the web and playing action video games (project inf, and a few others). 2.1 ROMS didn't lag at all.
Is there a fix for this?
I'm running KaosFroyo v34 and I only see a noticeable video lag when I watch a .flv/.mp4 with RockPlayer. Browser, games, etc... seem to work just fine.
I'm getting 1 frame every two seconds at cpu intensive parts (smoke in project inf)
In 2.1 it was a little laggy but nowhere near as bad as this.

With flash 10.2, after 5 mins into playing flash video(HD or no HD), the streak will reboots itself and I have to take out the battery for it to boot.
Does it happen to anyone else? I tried it on att 2.2, stock 2.2 (318 &345), streakdroid 1.9
And at the rare time it doesn't crash/reboot. HD flash videos are also very slow and jerky to a point it's unwatchable....
Take the HD videos at megavideo for example
not looking for solution, just wondering if it's the same for everyone else??
EDIT: to answer my own question without bumping.
Got a replacement streak, same jerky HD flash performance but doesn't restart by itself now, so it's definitely hardware problem. And this is on DJ steve's 1.9 with perfmod
Just got my G-Tablet today and installed a few different roms on it with no issues (first time with a droid device! These forums and gtablet for dummies have been a very big help) but it seems that all the videos from say youtube or any site for that matter play with low quality. If I go to youtube and watch any clip that is suppose to be HD and open up the video it looks like 360p on my tablet (sorta blocky/ugly but plays fine). I can't select 720/1080p etc on the video. It just lets me click play and then it goes full screen. In the top right of the video it says "HQ" but it really isn't.
I'm currently using Calkulin + Clemsyn Combo Overclock at 1.5 ghz V6 ROM (flash works) and everything works pretty darn good. I tried CM7 and Vegan 7 and couldn't get flash to work at all and the video quality was poor as well.
I've tried playing the videos with the youtube app and 4 different browsers all to the same effect (opera, dolphin hd, firefox, and the broswer that came with each ROM). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
ps: I searched the forum for my exact problem and did not find any threads on it. Sorry if this seems to be a recurring thread. I'm also use to my iphone 4 which plays videos in very good HD quality and the only reason I'm switching to a droid tablet instead of getting say an ipad is 1. price and 2. customization.
anyone have ideas?
If you look around there is something on HQ video. I think until they get the proper drivers it will not work in HQ.
Hi i recently updated to version 2.3.4 via Kies since then i have been having issues with Flash based content specifically YouTube videos.
When i watch videos in the YouTube app the videos have constant stutter where the it will be smooth then pause the smooth and so on.
Its not just limited to the YouTube app. Videos in the browser on anything higher the 480p are impossible to watch. With constant slowdown and pauses. Not all YouTube content in browse r is like this Vevo music videos even in 1080p are perfectly smooth like everything else used to be.
I have everything updated im just wondering if anyone has any ideas. I have already done a factory reset and tried watching videos without updating flash or YouTube app no change.
Im not rooted completely stock any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou.
I find it a little strange that nobody answered that question yet.
When I thought back, when my SGS2 shipped with Android 2.3.3 , flash content ran ultimately smooth in stock browser, even with 1080p. Now I'm on Revolution ROM 2.7.1 (Gingerbread 2.3.5) with Siyah Kernel 1.7.7, and flash content runs horrible.
During playback in stock browser, the videos stutter all the time! There is a small but annoying trick to get it smooth: scroll a little up and down, keep your finger on the touchscreen all the time. now you can see that the video runs great, but you have to keep your finger on screen during the whole playback!
Had the same issue with CM7 and MIUI, too.
What is the matter with that?!
Come on, is there no one else here being a little pissed with this issue, too?!
Compare your browsing experience with that:

The Firmware is at least 6 months old, but browser performance is far superior and the stock browser has this fancy rotate animation, too!
I run Overcome 2.1.1 with pershoots kernel on an overclocked tab (1,4 GHz). Everything is fine besides flash video playback. Quadrant score is above 3.000.
I tried the videos from www.gamestar.de or www.laola1.tv. Preroll-ads are being played flawlessly but the real video is laggy and stuttering (music/speech is fine). I tried both the stock browser and Dolphin HD.
Any ideas? Thank you very much!
it does that to me too, for examle @ gorillavid, it continously looses framerate throughout the video 'till its unwatchable, but thats just because the certain servers i'd say
Hi!
My 2 cents:
I can play flash video on the tab and on tv without lag with the original rom and kernel 3.2.
But if I install pershoot kernel or a rom without the original kernel I get some lag
It gets worse if I conect the tab to the tv with the hdmi adapater.
Has anyone experienced the same?
Everyone can watch flash videos without lag or drpped frames?
I can with the stock rom, but can't with the developed roms
Hello!
After upgrading to ICS 4.0.4 the video from Youtube are playing not smooth. This happens only to HD videos, SD videos are okay. This happened after I upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 from 3.x. Before that everything was good. When I enable "Show CPU usage" in "Developer option", I see that skipping frames starts when mediaserver uses the cpu (I attached a screenshot). Tried to to "Factory reset" - did not help. When I did factory reset, tried to watch any HD video - same thing. I use the tabled only to read news and watch something from youtube. Some other application are installed (for Kids).
WIFI signal is strong, I see that video is buffering ahead of playing, not rooted.
Question is - what to do to fix this issue with ICS 4.0.4 or how do I roll back to 3.2 or even to the ROM that was in the box when I bought it.
You cant really fix it if you are not rooted. Samsung's fault.
The only way of fixing it is going back to HC and rooting and installing Custom ICS or JB roms did not help at all for me.
In HC, the Youtube plays smoothly in the app, but still lags in the web browser..in www.m.youtube.com
In ICS and JB, both options lag like hell.
I downloaded Pimp My ROM from google play, and set everything possible that is present to make the tab faster and perform better, and the youtube is a little bit better now, but still there are lags. It's definitely better though.
But still, Youtube in HC plays better.
