WM 6.5 - Youtube playback lags, Webcam does not work - XPERIA X1 ROM Development

Hi,
I have recently flashed my phone with WM 6.5 ROMs such as: Touch-IT BL Landscape W6.5 sense2.5 - 21889 (20100110), Rotastrain's Blaze3.5_21890 (20100214). All the time, I have experienced Youtube playback lag. I also can not use my phone as a webcam anymore (using MobileController, WebCamPlus).
When using WM 6.1 ROM Touch X 10.9.1, I did not have such problems.
I read in the forum that WM 6.5 has different graphic API from WM 6.1. Is that the reason? And is there any cure for WM 6.5?
Thanks for your concern.
=====
- Youtube lag problem is solved by using ROMs with builds 21892, 21893.
- The problem with webcam still exist. THe only ROM that I have tried which provide webcam capability for the X1 is Energy "Leo" 21892 |Feb 16|. Anybody know why?

I had the YouTube playback problem with every rom (original or cooked). I dont know why its so messed up on the X1 but then i found [GER] H.V4 Final and its totally smooth. I dont know why he seems to be the only cook to get this right. When i had the original x1 rom on my phone i once called the support and he said he has the same problem. Thats why my next phone is gonna be a htc hd2 or something...

How well does XPERIA run on 6.5?

i was just wondering XPERIA is running the latest beta of windows mobile 6.5.
Is the program scrolling really smooth like the iphone or the toshiba 1ghz phone?
because i seen in some videos its a little laggy and well not all that smooth.
i'd install it my self but i dont have the time, or any idea of how to do it.
And feedback would be greatly appreciated! A Video of 6.5 would be fab!
i cant give you a video of me scrolling through the menus on 6.5 but i have to say its very fast. Faster than any Manila Rom. Titanium works here and browsing windows directory is no problem
thanks,
so a noob question here,
if i flash to wm6.5 what happends when the seus releases R3A?
will this flash over 6.5 or will it stay?
also do you recomend wm6.5?
cheers

ah sweet - good to know that because i've seen some 6.5 videos and the scrolling doesnt look very smooth at all
6.5 quite slow for me.. they improved the visual enchantments on the user interface, but then sacrified the speed..
I have found that WM6.5 is very fast on my X1. I like it so much that i've taken to using it as my main OS over 6.1.
I love Titanium, and I especially love the new kinetic scrolling feature. It's so much smoother and easier to use than the clunky one which HTC made. I do appreciate that the HTC model was made to snap into the existing lists, so it had the flaws of the windows lists to contend with, which is why the Microsoft implementation is so much better.
Long story short...
WM6.5 runs very well on my x1
yeah poeple, let me know, what happens, if you flash the new windows mobile 6.5 , you can make a backup of your existing rom with all programs, contacts etc ??? is that possible ?
and if yes, some link to any tutorial ?
would be great !
quite smooth now. im happy with it .
not as smooth as iphone

do you think it will be smoother when it is finally released??
Okay..where to get WM 6.5 Beta?
i wanna try it on X1 too.
it runs great on Touch HD ..i saw on youtube
It will be smooth when it's out of beta and the cooks here at xda have a go at it. I hate all stock ms roms. Without the cooker here,any stock ms rom is junk, 5.0, 6.1,6.5 all crap.
The 6.5 beta that I tested run very slowly so I had to change back to a cooked 6.1 rom.
On the other hand a friend of mine who has a Touch Pro said it ran really well on his device and he kept it...
Dunno what to say...Ill wait for the official release...
Whens it officially released..will we have a chance to run it on Xperia for free?
i'm using 6.5 for a while now and i love it.
i don't know how come people saying its laggy by me it works great now the first 6.5 rom of itje was slow but with the new build its great.
everybody is speaking about speed but what about battery? with 6.1 the phone holds up to one day by me but with 6.5 its almost 2 days the battery consumption is very improved.
the scrolling is much easyier to use with youre fingers. for example when i'm browsing the net i have to select something from a drop down menu with wm6.1 its a nightmare, wright? and have to use the stylus. but in wm6.5 i can easy scroll with my finger no need for the stylus anymore.
that where my toughts and experiences
i tried some ROM with WM6.5 and the video playing is too slow for me (i mean it is a fast slideshow not a video playback), but every other function was fast.
so i use a WM6.1 ROM because i need a good speed in video. A.

do you mean watching movie? i use coreplayer for watching movies and its very fast it isnt laggy, i even watch movies in .avi without any problem.
try http://www.coreplayer.com/
i like divx mobile player. fits the x1 screen perfectly and have watched several movies in it already.
just trying to share.
well as long as the scrolling is smooth and not laggy at all
The chefs and the beta has come a long way in the last three months.
Winmo 6.5 runs very well on Xperia.
I'm running Agent 47 Valkyrie 2.6 leo and the ROM is bug free and state of the art.

YouTube QVGA on WM6.5?

Has anyone been able to get Youtube QVGA to work in WM6.5?
I am running 3.34.721.23 WM6.5 by PDAVIET. This app worked perfectly on my 6.1 ROM.
I am in the same boat. Would like to know too.
I tried putting YouTube from another compiled ROM bundle (6.1) but it would freeze up.

WM6.5 and 6.1 ROM Video Comparison

Dear all,
Has anyone tried the video playback between the either o/s on any rom. Ive installed a couple of roms running WM6.5 but the video playback using coreplayer was awful. Droping frames and losing audio video sync.
Then I changed to one of the 6.1 Roms on the site and experienced the same playback as that of the stock rom (vodafone UK). The unit played divx/xvid clips smoothly not losing sync or droping frames.
The clip was a divx/xvid tv rip standard that you would get on a torrent site like 352 mb for 45 mins or so. I tried a few clips to find the same issue.
Im guesing this is because the HTC video drivers arent part of any 6.5 rom. Is there anyway to include these or workout why there is such a massive difference.
Thanks

same problems... with official WM 6.1 coreplayer play good,
but with official WM 6.5 and others cooked rom based on WM 6.5 coreplayer performance are very low
Definately noticing a much slower performance on CorePlayer with 6.5 ROM than with the 6.1. Benchmark test dropped from 104% to 72%
Anyone got a fix. Ive just upgraded to the latest coreplayer 1.3.6 and still no improv.
yeah, I confirm that upgrading to a WM6.5 rom did slow down my xvid playback in coreplayer... (under a pro2 from stock Telus ROM 6.1 to MightyROM 6.5)
Also have a look at THIS thread that mention video playback.
Don't know why people don't post a sample video so everybody can test the same movie and post their results... hint hint..

fastest Sense and Coreplayer issue

After a lot of flashing I have found many Sense versions to be faster than others. In your guys opinion what sense version with or without addons is the fastest on the Rhodium?
Also has anyone found the same Sense version to run differently on different WM 6.5 builds?
And does anyone know which Sense and WM combo allows Coreplayer to play properly without lagging? I still have to disable my Sense to allow my coreplayer to play video smoothly.
I think Sense 2.1 was the fastest I experienced, on an early build of wm 6.5.
In my opinion the fastest Sense for me is AthineOS S2 XTREME. I did not have any issues at all with CorePlayer lagging. Do you play your media off your phone's memory card, or over wifi network ? If over wifi, you should adjust the wifi power saving feature of your rhodium to maximum performance and the lagging should disappear.
Athineos is a rom, not a Sense version.
the coreplayer issue is a video driver issue with Sense.
Jeez dont bite his head off
you could alway go and check what version of sense the Rom uses.
so indirectly he has given you the answer you asked for.
I want a smooth fast system too .....
