2k Youtube videos freezing? - LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Every time I try to play a Youtube video in 1440p, it freezes after about 10 seconds. I'm on my second V10 and they both have the issue. This happening with anyone else? Kinda disappointing that the V10 isn't capable of playing 2k videos...

That's a bummer.....No issues here....tried 6 different 2K videos on Youtube after I read this post. They all played great. No stopping or stuttering.
Which carrier are you on?

Tmobile. How long did you let them play? Mine always start out fine but freeze after 10-20 seconds. The audio keeps playing, just the video freezes

Same issue with 2k videos on YouTube freezes but sounds works

Wonder if it's a T-Mobile device issue....I have the AT&T version. I watched the 2K videos all the way through....some were longer than 10 minutes and some just over 2 minutes. Watched a few UnboxTherapy vids...they have vids in 2K. Also watched some 2K movie trailers. Godzilla for example....haven't heard many people with this issue though.

Just tested several 2k videos. All worked flawlessly and showed off this ips display quite nicely! Tmo variant on LTE network

I have watched many youtube videos and have had no issues. All hq videos look and play great. (on t-mobile)

I've got the tmo version and I definitely have issues with 1440p. This is my 2nd one too.
Side by side be S6 active the V10 skips frames during 1440p. Also I have experienced it stopping video as well... One of the reviews I watched on the V10 after I got it, nonetheless, in 1440p it just stopped playing video. Ironic.

This happens over wifi or LTE, so I can't see why it would be carrier specific. Especially since the audio keeps playing & just the video freezes

I have the TMobile v10 and I just watched 4 2k videos on YouTube without an issue. I watched:
Jurassic Park preview https://youtu.be/vBfY-o_OIPI
2K Demo https://youtu.be/hddwAIXbKZo
Another Demo https://youtu.be/0vrdgDdPApQ
And Godzilla preview https://youtu.be/kCUmjVys0MA
May have mixed up the last 2 links but I didn't have any issues. I am on 4G LTE waiting on the doctor who had a flat this morning.

We'll I was just curious when I asked what carrier you were on because each carrier has its own model.....not because of signal strength or quality of LTE and Wifi. T-Mobile is the H901...AT&T is the H900. T-Mobile's is unlockable and rootable right now.....AT&T version not so much. So far on this thread the people who do have problems are the T-Mobile version which makes me even more curious....

I watched some of those as well....Jurrasic Park trailer is awesome! Very fluid....and all videos have played great over LTE and WiFi for me.

I just played the above videos with no issue, but I can confirm some 1440 videos not playing properly. This is the very first video I tried to watch on this device.

I'm still having issues with it. My simple guess is vids with issues were encoded at a higher bitrate. That said, this device should not be affected.

Just watched the video you linked to....Thanks for sharing! The clarity and sharpness is outstanding and the video plays smoothly. No issues here.

i am having the same issue with 4k videos, videos freeze and sounds are going on. what is the issue?
Guess the gpu is not powerful enough to render the pixels?

Hey everyone, I just made a video to show this issue happening. If anyone has any suggestions throw them out them out there.

Just watched your video bud......damn shame. Have you tried clearing the cache and data in the app and starting over? Don't know if it'll help but it's the only suggestion I got.....sorry I can't help any more than that.

I am having the same issue with my T-Mobile V10 as well. Some videos play fine but for the majority of them the screen freezes while the audio continues. I have found that pausing the video and pushing play again can correct the problem but it can happen again on the same video.

Yeah so far the people that are having issues are using the T-Mobile device.....don't know why that is though.

Can we scroll through 1080p movies?

Hi everyone,
Been happily testing out my newly arrived sgs 2, everything working as they should...well, almost
Thing is, when I played some 1080p movies encoded with h.264, they played just fine, but I seem to never be able to jump through the movie, namely, the movie will only play from beginning to end, but no jumping in between...i think this is really weird, since it's working with all other movies with lower resolution... So I'd like to know if it's common, or only just me, and if the latter, how can I fix it. Thanks

I can scroll/seek fine on 1080p video. Try another video player.
Likewise, seeking working fine for me.

Youtube lag issue

Hi there,
Just got my galaxy note yesterday and ive noticed that certain youtube videos gives lag in the transition. Is this normal for stock rom for this device? My nexus s had no problem before and my transformer prime runs everything smoothly for youtube.
Also when i do a benchmark test... During the fps test, it only shows like between 30 - 50 mostly in the 30s... My tfp gives constant 60 fps on the test. What is the average for stock rom?
Sent from my SGH-I717D using Tapatalk
Your Nexus S had no problems with video play by because it was displaying less pixels than the Note.
I'm assuming you're on a stock Note with Gingerbread. Root and update to ICS if you want smooth video playback. I had the same problem with my Note until I moved onto 4.0.3 and now 720p videos have no stuttering whatsoever.
Thanks a bunch for the tip! Much appreciated

The bitrate of the videos are probably encoded at a high rate and maybe some videos have a bitrate too high to stream smoothly over you connection. I have had the same problem with a few videos but its not a big deal to me. If you have the problem when a video starts playing pause the video and let it load til you see the transparent red line get farther down the timeline.
this laggy transition only happens on youtube. When i play hd video files saved on the phone there is no lag whatsoever runs smooth like all my other devices. Only youtube is the issue... Im not sure if i should return my note because my dad got one as well the same time as me and his note has this issue as well. ..
Sent from my SGH-I717D using Tapatalk
Forgot to add that issue only comes up on fullscreen landscape mode. When it plays on non fullscreen then it plays smooth on youtube.
Sent from my SGH-I717D using Tapatalk
Does anyone still have this problem on their note? My note has this problem and it is really annoying (using stock version). Viewing in desktop version does not have the inconsistency with audio to image, but it does stutters a little.
The problem drastically improved after installing ice; although its still persistent.
I believe I saw somewhere somebody on android apps and games posted a modified YouTube which solved this problem-although I didn't try it. Ill keep a look out

Review on the HTC media link hd

WOW
Really is all I can say if it only had surround sound then I would give it a 10 out of 10 but I will have to give it a 9.8. I used Pavtube Blu-ray Video Converter Ultimate to convert the Dark night and boy for 720p video its killer to be able to stream from my phone this quality. WOW But i used the One X profile and it out put 1280x720 i am sure i could get full hd later on but for a simple convert it it kills all other programs for the Evo Lte.
I really think its a great tool that if you used it the right way you could do about any thing. Yes its a little laggy but not by much when playing video it really does not see any of the lag at all. I really can not say more then WOW.

How are you connected to it? I don't have Wifi at home and was hoping I could use the HD LINK and my phones internet at the same time, But I get all kinds of errors, that make the Media Link useless.

I might take you up on that, Depending on what HTC support says.
so far I love it also!
I'd love to be able to do other tasks (send sms, look up reviews on the imdb app and so forth) while watching the movie on TV. just like that demo I saw on YT of the One X over the MediaLikn HD
for a quick minute one time I was able to do this. stranegly enough I cannot not duplicate it...
anyhow, I did play a movie oncoded to 720p, 1500kbs, mp4 and it played nicely.
I'll try a better quality encode next time.
but, yh, love this thing! can't beat the no cables covenience

Most tasks, if you want them to stay on the tv, you have to three finger swipe up when on that screen, like the music app.

I love the media link, I have downloaded tv shows and it streams great, I use it with all kinds of players.
The only bug is that to get 3g and media link to work you have to edit ur build.prop to enable tether

I just picked mine up today. It's okay...but I think I'm going to return it. $90 is a bit steep price wise and it lags a little too much for me. Plus Netflix plays on both the phone and the TV through this not just the TV so you have to leave your phone's screen on, which I dislike.

Netflix audio out of sync.

My Netflix audio has been out of sync since I first got my G3. My network is fine as Netflix works perfectly on PC, iOS devices, Chrome casts etc. The audio seems about 1 second behind the video. Anyone have a solution or have the same problem?
Sent from my VS985 4G using XDA Free mobile app
I typically watch on my chromecast, but the few times I have watched on the phone everything has looked good. If you're running ART try switching back to Dalvik. Other than that, try the typical force stop/restart on the netflix app and then a full on reboot. If it's still laggy then I'm out of ideas.
Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately I've tried all or them. So far
I'll update if u get it fixed. (and yeah casting is fine for me with my phone because it isn't really my phone doing the playback but rather the actual chromecast)

Maybe its because the image quality is much better than on most other devices that its arriving slower than the audio? That's my best guess. Its not super annoying, the delay is small enough that if you don't pay attention to who is speaking then you cant really tell. But it is noticeable. And if there is a fix that would be awesome.

I have this problem too. Tried downgrading Netflix but no luck. Tried different Roms too and nothing. It's pretty annoying. Funny thing is I don't have these issues with video players or videos streaming from YouTube.
Just found this thread researching this issue. Just got my G3 yesterday day. Everything is still on stock. Anyone notice if other video apps suffer the same problem? I ask because to me it feels like video generally looks a bit like overprocessed motion-interpolated modern tv sets. And if the g3 uses stuff like that it might be related...

Can you actually select 4k on Youtube Mobile? Just got the Note 4...

Pretty confused. I cannot select 4k, or at first anything above 720p until I installed the re installed Youtube\cleared it. Now I have the option of 1080p, but I am still missing the option of 4k as I have the Note 4, is this just a Youtube mobile app problem or what? Thanks in advance, loving the display but confused as the Youtube app just seems funky and won't allow anything above 1080p, so I have no way of really showing off the phones 4k feature in terms of video quality. Thanks in advance
Well the video has to have been uploaded at 4k quality... Try Rhett and Links "Vacation Song". I know that was uploaded in 4k.

You sure that the content has 4k option on your PC ?
There's no option in the YouTube app for 4k. You yourself a can shoot 4K video or view content that has been uploaded in 4K.

Oh I've tried a boat-load of 4k ones. On my PC there is an option for 4k with them, not on Note 4's Youtube app. I also at first was stuck with just up to 720p, I uninstalled Youtube and re-installed and now get 1080p, but still nothing like 1440p or 4k.
The 1080 option is a very recent addition to the Youtube app. (one of the last two updates.)
Which is ridiculous, since 1920x1200 screens on Android have been around since the Asus TF700T introduced them in July 2012. More than two bloody years ago.
2K will probably take them another two years to figure out, 4k at least four.
So no, the option does not exist.

According to what I was reading if you go back two Youtube updates you get 1440P, you just have to uninstall and manually install the old package. It was in there, as was 1080P before, they just took it out for some reason. Stupid considering all the 4k devices on the market now.

Dident you even consider that it wasnt stable enough and 1080p is back, at least here in Europe.
Still having this problem
Load 4k vids on YT and 1440 is the highest option
Anyone know if and when YT will include 4k as an option?
Also is there a site or resource that posts what youtube is working on/releasing/released/etc. ?
Like when app updates say what comes with the update and what's different. ..something like that for youtube android development
