[Q] Youtube video online streaming - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys, i observed that when i play HD videos using youtube app or mobile version on the browser and usually if it's a long video it somewhat stutters.. Am i the only one experiencing this?
I am running on Hyperdroid 1.1.1 with stock kernel (the kernel that came with the custom ROM)..
Don't know if this has been asked before so please just leave your experience and no trolling or flaming etc..

It's 3am in the morning here and i need to sleep.. Will be back after a few hours.. For those who will answer you will receive my thanks and if there is a way to fix this you may share it as well.. Cheers!!!
P.S- Stuttering only happens when the video is HD and it doesnt appear to stutter if the video is not HD..

I've also noticed it but can't remember when I first started to see it. Would be good if someone more skilled could shed some light on the issue as its really distracting once you notice it.
Surely it can't be the phone itself as there are plenty of older phones capable of playing youtube vids just fine.
Stock KI8 BTW.

I'll just bump this thread so everyone can see it..

I have the same problem, posted in many forums about, but no one gives a solution for that. For me this problem is present since update from 2.3.3 above, and no rom,kernel or anything, solve that till now! Its a real shame that such a problem stayin undiscused,and doesn't get a proper atention!

I'm using Speedmod Kernel K2-18 test2 now, this is the only kernel, that gives me smooth playback of HD videos on Youtube. I don't know why, but guess something releated to the governor or scagualer. Try this kernel.

flash player not loading on cm9/aokp

Hi anyone else noticed on 80% of sites flash player won't load on most sites .. I've tried nearly all roms and on cm9 it won't work..
There must be a fix to this??????

Same here, is not a ICS issue, just CM9, really weird, it works on official LPQ firm.
Let's hope it's easy to find what lib is causing the issue.
Notice two posts above .
CM discussion thread ????.

I downloaded the actual adobe flash player app from the market on CM9 and flash works fine. The stock roms come with that pre-installed so its worth a go.

Flash does work but stalls when trying to load a video. Still not enough for me to not use cm9. I dont know why it works for some people and not others?
Dolphin + flash player works fine 4 me.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2 Beta-2
I have tried just about everything to make this work, stock, dolphin hd, opera, chrome, with and without flash app installed, clearing data ect ect. Maybe someone can send me the link from a video that they have had working to make sure it isn't just site related / adblocking ? Flash is working on websites for me just isn't loading videos? Youtube works fine direct from mobile site, i'm thinking this maybe a adblocking issue?

Videos capture and playback problems

Hi, I'm running HepHappys port of CM9 for the LG O1. My problem is this: when I take videos the video in the view finder is jittery. When I playback any video, either imported from a computer or taken with the phone camera it says "sorry, this video could not be played do to an error". I have tried using multiple media players to no avail. YouTube pays fine although idk about HQ. If I flash back to CM7 no problems. I've tried playing videos taken in CM7 while running CM9 and still no playback. I had the same problem on AOKP. Does any one else have this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

you are facing this problem becasue we are unable to get openmax codecs for full hardware acceleration . so if you record video it will b laggy and if you play hd video it could not be played . if you cant compromise with this problem then i suggest you to stuck with gingerbread because it is better than ics on our phones .

Try using mx player with armv6 codec,both found in the Google play store

Every ics thread shows this problem and its discussed at length in all of them. No driver from qualcomm. Nothing you can do except software decoding.

Thanks guys! I thought that was the problem.
I tried MX media player and now I can play videos! Thanks
Sorry for creating an unnecessary thread, I've looked through several ics forums and I guys I just missed it.
Thanks

Online Video Corruption

Hi Guys,
I've had my S3 for a couple of months now, but i've found that i'm occasionally experiencing some corruption when viewing online Videos (guessing they're Flash vids). I have the latest Official Firmware, rooted with Franco Kernel - though this did happen before i rooted. It doesnt happen everytime, and even videos on the same website will play and then some don't. Has anyone else seen this before, have any ideas on how to fix it? Attached a screenshot of what happens.
I've been having the same problem I think I its a flash player issue and jellybean

Thanks for the response - puts my mind at ease a little. Was beginning to think my S3 was faulty.
Same here.
Same here on stock Jellybean

Never had this on stock rom/kernel or foxhound/siyah kernel.

Same here on a Sammy jellybean rom, i don't recall seeing this on aosp based Roms, I might be wrong though.
I did notice a work around though, the "corruption" only happens (or mostly) at 480p videos, so if you change the quality to 360p or 720p it should work as usual.
Hope this helps.

flash 11.1 had this issue on certain flash video's, since you can't get a newer flash branch, just uninstall it and use html5 video.
Try this... http://db.tt/Nlqa2OnD
Its an older version of flash. It should work.

Freezing during streaming video

I have an 8gb, and no matter what ROM I use, streaming video freezes. Like YouTube. Has anyone else seen this? Video stops but sound keeps going. Have you found a ROM that doesn't do it?
I thought I read before that it was an old kernel issue but the ROMs I've been trying lately seem to have a newer one. I don't know.
Thanks

Mostly all the ROMs have this issue. I haven't found one that fixes the problem. Hopefully that is changed soon.
I have the 16 GB, but I have experienced that "video stops, sound goes on" thing in some ROMs. I haven't had it happen since I installed Succulents 1231 build of CM10 though. http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/03/cm10-0-jelly-bean-for-nook-tablet-uploading/
I don't play lots of streaming video though, so maybe I've just been lucky, but on the ROMs where I have noticed the problem it has occured very frequently. And with this one not at all...
Edit: I now see that Datallboy uses that same ROM on the 8GB and still has the problem. So I guess the fact that it works on my 16GB is of no help to those with 8GB. :crying:
Thought I'd give an update. I've been using the slimbean ROM and haven't seen the issue yet. But the ROM itself isn't that fast.

That issue came from cm10 up to now. To avoid of this, I choose to install youtube alternative app called "smart tube" set the quality of video to 360p and the device doing very well.

I never had this issue with Succulent's final CM10.0, but have run into it with some CM10.1 builds, typically when I had not done a clean install (i.e., wiping /data partition) in which cases doing an un-install/re-install of YouTube would fix it.
Dang Slimbean rom does it too. If anyone figures this out let me know.
