ICS Youtube vs GB Youtube - HTC Rezound

Ive tried most of the ICS leaks and saw that youtube actually does 720p. Anyone notice this? I actually took my wifes stock rezound and put it next to my ics and found the video quality is very much superior on the ICS version.
In saying that, is it possible to get that on A GB rom? Or is it not possible ?
And im talking about the youtube app, not from browser.

ics 720p youtube
Just curious, how do you know ics youtube supports 720p. Because I'm on ics and my youtupe player still just shows (hq) ?

I always assumed that the GB player did 720p also since my HD icon/switch would always be lit up. I'm running ICS now and it's pretty nice but I don't use youtube enough to notice a change in quality.

ICS YouTube is superior in almost every way. Their normal (Non HD) setting is HQ (High Quality) on GB. Then when you click HD, the video will play in 720p (If supported). Dope.
Edit: ICS ROMs that are 4.0.1 will not say HD. It will say HQ, but still plays 720p when applied. ICS 4.0.3 has the "HD" icon instead of "HQ."

1080p playing

Hi,
I tried some Roms yet but only the Stock and Litening seem to play 1080p videos on youtube fluently.
Roms which didnt work for me are GalnetMiui, Cyanogen7 and already said Litening.
Any advice?
Dont the display on these only show upto 720p anyway?

No its displaying 1080p but its lagging

YouTube 1080p

Does anyone know if RAZR can play 1080p Youtube or only 720p?
Razr easily plays H.264 1080p.
So don't worry about Youtube. But with you qHD screen, you shoul use 720, or 480. Except if you want to stream on a TV, obviously.
Edit: And keep on fighting, Greece.
No. 720p yes, 1080p, no. It stutters like mad.
Are you talk via browser or the app? I don't think there's a choice within the app.

Both actually. Since you mention it, what is the resolution used by the app and are there any other apps that gives you the option to choose resolutions?
720p max in YouTube -- which looks great. 1080p is not necessary.

[Q] Animated gifs run terrible

I filmed my TFP, an ipad 3, a Galaxy S and a Galaxy Nexus running the same animated GIF here:
http://youtu.be/gKgtA8DUH6k
The prime was freshly rebooted and is currently running Virtuous .21 @ 1.6 GHz. What am I doing wrong with this thing? I've tried everything I can think of to get this thing to run smoothly (this isn't limited to animated gifs, its just very apparent with them) Am I really supposed to accept that a 2 year old single core phone can outperform this tablet? Help!
its software, not hardware. Try using a different program to open the gif, what are you using now? (If you say the stock browser im gonna slap you through the computer screen)
Oh, and a link to the gif would be nice.
I don't have any problem with this gif on my transformer prime

Same setup rom wise, and apart from a little lag from switching apps, mine runs ok
No problems on my end either. Downloaded the gif. Viewed through QuickPic result smooth as butter. The title of your video...
" Asus Transformer Prime fails at animated gifs. " Is far from the truth.. Not sure how your getting that lag though. Could be what your using to play the gif

found the gif in the youtube video, plays flawlessly on my prime, using quickpix instaed of the default gallery. Running stock .21
From the youtube video I would say your running stock browser and that's the problem.
I tested the gif in a few different browsers and the only one that had problems was also stock for me.

Yes it's the stock browser. It's also the stock browser on the g nexus and the galaxy s which is why I included them in the video.
And sorry for not hiding my disgust and disappointment with this thing in the video title. Thanks for taking the time to reply and for the video.

I know what you mean.
I came from a Nook Color to the Prime and the performance on the Nook was better sometimes lol.
But hopefully the new update will fix this.

slightly laggy video playback

I'm noticing that videos recorded on the device are slightly laggy on playback. It seems to happen at some points. A restart helps, but I don't know why its happening. Other full hd videos play smoothly and I have tried other video players with no luck. Verizon galaxy s3.
Is it ones that you record? If so is it on1080p?

Yeah just in the videos that I record on the device. yes full hd 1920x1080. Everything is on default.
I'm having this same problem, any ideas?

Do you find them laggy on the stock video player? I find that they do stutter a bit on third party video apps, but they're perfectly fine on stock video player.
Yes, on the stock player. I took some video of my son the other day and when I played it back for my mom, it started stuttering at the end. But, I just played it for myself yesterday and it worked fine. Not sure what's up.

I've found a work around,it sucks but if you record in 720p the video that you record wont lag at all, I've called Samsung they said to try a factory reset. But I'm not going to I'm OK with my 720p. Hope this helps you guys out, if any body trys a factory reset and it works please come back and let us know.

I have noticed that ocassionaly the last couple frames stutter. But I've recorded a lot of 1080p videos and no other problems playing back on stock player. 3rd party video players on the phone are hit and miss tho (mostly miss).
I'm running into the same problem. It seems to be the player. When I upload the videos onto my pc they playback smoothly but when I play them on the stock player on the phone it lags badly.

[Q] how do I watch 1080p youtube videos?

Using danvdh 4.4.4 GPE ROM. YouTube max is 720p.
I also have a stock VZW Galaxy S5 that allows me to select 1080p. Same video.
Confused.
I'm running Vanir and I only have up to 720p option as well. Personally on a screen our size I doubt it makes much of a difference.

I have a stock vzw galaxy s5 and I am able to notice the difference. I guess it also has a better display.
Me neither I've even tried viral and it wouldn't allow me to use 1080p on my s4 why
