YouTube app constantly buffering.. - Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just wanted to know if anyone else has had this problem too with their YouTube app.
Basically when i'm trying to watch videos using the Youtube app every so often it'll buffer the video which obviously isn't anything new but when it buffers it just doesn't stop and eventually i'll have to back up and open the video again while moving the slider where i was in the video, then it plays again. Sometimes it'll buffer without stopping right after i've refreshed and it's really, REALLY irratating! Can anyone shed some light on this problem i'm facing? Thanks in advance!

Yes it seems a lot of people have this problem, the app itself seems to perform very poorly.
Try using an old version of the app it may help.

Ah i did think it was the app itself and not really anything to do with the rom i'm on at the moment.
Thing is, i used to own a Galaxy S i9000 and although buffering has always been present, it never constantly buffered as much as the YouTube app on the 5830i does.. :what:

Hmm, never heard of that app before. The thing is, i don't want to have to use a third party app, i should be able to use YouTube on my mobile!
I mean, it's an official Google app and it shouldn't have this issue to be honest..
Thanks for your suggestions anyway guys.

[Q] is there a movie maker app like the one in the galaxy s2

ok so i took a video of my daughter and went to look for the movie maker/editor 0.0 its not there was on my galaxy s2 it let me ad audio to my movies but i cant do that now anyone know of a replacement app? not a video trimmer..
bump! i tried putting the gs2 video editor apk to my s3 also the one from the galaxy nexus but the nexus is slugish and freezes while the s2 just force closes.
this (beep) is annoying a simple video editor please... anyone? maybe someone knows how to get the s2 or n3xus movie makers to work on the s3.. im thinking its because of the quadcore processor tht they wont?

hi thanks iv already tried that, the problem with that is it force closes on me when i switch to the audio edit part and then try to go back to the video.. also it doest let you remove the sound from the origional video like the movie maker does in galaxy s2.
Just installed Andromedia Video Editor, but unistalled it straight away as it was picked up as a threat by TrustGo Security which advised that it could read your phone book, change your browser homepage and create shortcuts without your permission.
Have to say, I love the fact I can get free apps through the Play Store, but why do the app creators have to let themselves down by building crapware into the app? Stuff like that actually makes me want to pay,
there's video maker which is free in the Samsung more services app

video lag in browsers

hi guys,
looked through the fora but could not find something maybe someone can help me out.
I have bad lag when i watch flashvideos in my browsers. all of them same lag. standardbrowser, skyfire, mozilla, dolphin.
Anyone with the same problem and even better anyone a solution?
Yeah I started thread couple week ago. It's in a q& a section. Unfortunately, there's no solution as of yet regarding video freezing but sound keep playing when streaming on network. Playing on wifi works fine.
One thing I found helps is restarting phone before starting Netflix for example or watching from browser.
Also note YouTube app does not suffer from this, so sometimes if it's a YouTube video embedded in the Page I just click on video link to be able to watch in the app instead of browser.

Yes I'm also suffering this problem. On network or WiFi on all browsers. Pain in the arse!

Flash doesn't lag on the GS3. But it does freeze frequently. If it lags then very likely you aren't actually using flash but the html5 player instead.
Netflix app does not actually use nor is dependant on flash. Also uninstalling flash completely, so that videos that do play, default to html5, still freeze while sound keeps playing, which leads to conclusion that it's not flash issue.

Try ICS Browser+ from Google play...
Flash videos did lag for me initially, so I tried clearing the application data but that wasn't possible. So I installed flash 10, which was incompatible, then updated it using Google Play to flash 11 and it seems to work better now.

Unable to Stream Videos.

Hi guys, hopefully an easy one.
Have searched previous threads for advice but no luck.
Recently purchased Samsung Galaxy sIII, i9300. Network provider o2.
The phone is ROOTED and is running on Android 4.0.4.
My problem is that I am unable to stream videos on Facebook, iPlayer, ITVPlayer or TV Catchup. The videos load, and I can hear audio but there is no video. Also, the phone kind of locks up when I try to quit the app.
Youtube streaming is fine!
The problem occurs when connected to 3g and also when connected to WiFi.
Adobe Air is updated, can't find flash in play store, but I've downloaded SmartSWF instead but still nothing.
Was considering upgrading to JellyBean to see if this would resovle the problem but thought I would try here first.
Thoughts / advice please?
Much appreciated. S.
Try searching for adobe flash player for Jellybean.
You will find threads about it and there it will give the apk to download and install and it works perfectly fine.
Not completely sure why your device isnt finding adobe flash player.
But they stopped officially supporting android devices from 4.1 and above.

Yeah i know which is what i dont understand but using the Jellybean method of installing Adobe Flash ayer would at least be a work-a-round to fix his problem mate

Waving strippes while playing vids. *Xperia U*

Hi guys. Firstable I want to say hello, because im new here. I will start instantly:
I've got a problem with my Xperia u. Since i've installed eXpirience v2 (before i was using stock rom and i haven't noticed any video bugs) strange thing happened to my phone :E. When i am trying to play any video using player "films" or "ES Video player" i can see semi-transparent stippes which are more visible when i'm opening gui. I'm not sure if it's caused by damaged phone or software becasue i bought my Xperia a week ago and i have installed eXpirience one hour after my phone arrived to me. I hope you will forgive me mistakes. I'm learning english yet and i can't speak perfectly. Thank you for reading my topic and i hope you will say me what is the reason of my problem and may solution.
If it's just videos, it's a software problem. Try to play your videos with MX player and if there is no changes, try to reinstall the ROM or change your ROM! I find eXperience very uglyyyyy

Seems like it's happening while playing videos only. When I'm exploring websites or menu or even playing games it looks like everyting is ok. I'll try to install new ROM and give a sign here if new soft is the solution.
Edit: MX Player is doing the same : ( I'll try to reinstall ROM and install stock for example, but i will to it tomorrow. After testing i will post here how it's working
We've got a problem. When i'm exploring internet i can see the same strippes but only horizontally and only in one part of the screen. They're also visible only at site. I can't see it on Opera bar or that bar at the top of the screen.

Change the decoder to sw instead of hw..it will work..and untick the 2d hardware rendering option in developer option
Sent from my ST25i using xda premium
2d rendering is unticked by default. I have changed decoder and so far seems like everything is ok while playing videos. Hope it will keep actual condition. Thank you guys and got one more question: Why is it happening when i'm exploring websites and only if there's a picture on the screen? What is the reason?

Ask where you downloaded the ROM, maybe it's a known bug.
