Hey guys, all of a sudden videos on my YouTube app are playing very slowly. I've tried clearing the app's data and cache still not working any ideas?
*edit*
I figured out the solution turns out Google Earth was bogging down my gpu for what ever reason. Mods can lock and delete this now.
When you find the solution, you should put [Solved] in the title to help people who stumble across this in the future.

Hi,
I have an Optimus One and i'm quite pleased with it.
But lately i have noticed that sometimes videos in the youtube app don't run smoothly. It's quite random and i can't find out whats causing it.
It's not the version of the app because it happens to the updated and to the native app as well.
Do you have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Upon further investigation i found that the problem isn't in the youtube app itself. It's with the mediaserver service which provides the video playback. When it's starts lagging it's lagging in all apps with video.
I couldn't find any way to restart or kill the /system/bin/mediaserver
Hasn't anyone else come across this problem?
Hello guys
Every time I want to watch something in YouTube and we I click on the video that I want it show different one. I do factory reset and still the same
Anyone can help
Thanks
I know this is an old topic, but I recently got a tab and I'm finding the same issue. I've searched this here internet, but I can't find an answer anywhere.
Symptoms:
It doesn't happen on every video - sometimes I can go 5 or 6 vids without a problem.
When it does happen, it's basically like this - I select a video, and Youtube shows me some other video. The most common ones are:
a grainy boxing video
a clip from a Rob Schneider movie
some guy loading a machine gun
a group of women doing aerobics;
Others include
a baby watching TV
2 hot girls dancing
2 hot girls kissing
I can get rid of them by hitting the 'back' arrow and then re-clicking the video I wanted. It works the 2nd time.
Additional info:
There's no repeatable pattern. I can select the same video on different occasions - sometimes the problem happens and sometimes it doesn't.
Just in the last couple of weeks, I was seeing the same with the Youtube app on my android phone (a flashed Captivate). I uninstalled Youtube (which didn't remove it completely - just reverted to an earlier version) and the problem disappeared.
As there's no option to uninstall Youtube on the tab, I tried flashing a ROM to see if that would help (Starburst). It didn't make any difference - I'm still getting the problem.
It only happens within the Youtube app. If I watch a Youtube video via the browser, the problem doesn't happen.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks everyone
Hello,
I flashed the new, official build of ICS for my U.S. Tab and Netflix has been having issues since I did it. It never had problems before, but now the video consistently freezes when I try to watch. Things run fine at the beginning, but the video stops after like a minute and the audio continues on as normal. This is the only problem I've encountered so far. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
There are a cpl of threads open on this one...have a look around for details. One work around if its freezing on HD is to lower the quality in the app...you could also try clearing cache. Search the forum and you'll find the threads...sorry I'm being lazy, about to run out...good luck!
For me nothing worked but switching to "better quality" in the Netflix account settings (Manage video quality). -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29623239&postcount=40
I'll start off by saying that I already searched for other threads like this and I formatted everything and reset to default settings, everything still lags like hell. Other threads say "cant play back 1080p videos" well I can't use the youtube app or the web to play videos in "hd" setting on the app or even 720p on the web. I get fps drops to like 10 every 40 seconds or so. So my question is has anyone found any solutions to this problem yet? I hate apple but find it funny that they can provide a better experience on youtube (a site owned by google)
Sorry if this is the wrong section, but thank you in advance for any help.
Hello there.
I just bought the OPX and it's a great device (except for the camera, of course)
But I have this weird video player problem.
videos are lagging and stuttering everywhere! twitter, youtube, browser, anywhere! except if I used an external player like (mx player) it goes kinda smooth.
I tried to disable nuplayer (or enable it, I don't remember but I changed the default state ) and got to nowhere. Same thing.
I've came across some webpages of people having a similar problem, yet no one have offered a proper solution.
I'm on the latest OTA oxygen update, just bought my phone 3 days ago so I didn't even have time to mess around
really looking to fix this problem ASAP because it's annoying, VERY annoying.
May be reset will work out!
Do a factory reset, or replace the device to a new one!
I guess I would do a reset when I'm totally out of ideas.
any sugs?

Try Awesome Player in developer options
Blu-spark kernel really improve the experience with the OPX. But I still have this problem sometimes.
I noticed that it's not on all vids on the youtube app for ex. It should be related to the video format (of course, worse on 1080p) & codecs/encoding properties (VBR ou CBR) or the servers the video is on. My data speed transfer is not the issue on that.
Tried awesome player, nothing changed.

so what do you suggest beside changing the kernel?
