The screen I want to play 720p videos is 1080p.
720p => OK
No problemo for me
CM 7.2 Kang from temasek, kernel 2.6.32.49, No OC, Flash player 11, Dolphin Browser HD
I play the tegra demo video 1080p, hardware decode mode with MX video player.
The title of the thread is a bit confusing.
We talk about youtube videos in 720p. I can view 480p without lags, but 720p is like a fast diashow.
i can even play 1080p videos using mxplayer pro. cm7 latest temasek kang, stock cm7 kernel. you better try it.

Hello!
I can play 720p videos in the browser window (tested CM standard, Dolphin HD 7.3.0, Opera 11.50) - but switching to full screen only worked with cm standard browser - video was distorted with the other browsers.
...may be because of 32MB ramhack. I will test a 00 ramhack build from vodonka later...
For testing I used the Avenger Trailer HD.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiZE7hVnF-4
OC was @1.3Ghz
Flash: 11.1.112.60
ROM: CM7.2.0-RC0-KANG temaseks build P204-29
Kernel: ironkrnL32-20120106h1801
BB/RIL: 0823
BTW: Playing HD videos with moboplayer works also flawlessly - and yes output over HDMI is ok too...

Hello!
As I understand it he was referring to Flash video streams from You-tube in 720p played in the browser!!!
Given the right codec the hardware is of course absolutely playing vids up to 1080p - I had never glitches using external player like Moboplayer.
But the Point was 720p played in a Web-browser!
...that is arguably a little more demanding for the hardware since these interfaces produce a little more overhead.

Hello!
As I wrote I could play it in 720p in full screen in the standard CM7 web browser using your KANG (P204-29 it was) with ironkrnL - didn't test, but I am sure it will also play with standard kernel.
Full screen was distorted with Dolphin HD and Opera, but (as I wrote) I am not sure if it isn't related to the 32MB-ramhack of the ironkrnL - I will test this later... But it played well in Browser...
And of course 360/480p is usually more than absolutely enough on a mobile device, but he wants the video to look good on an full HD Big screen - as I understand it.
And as mentioned in your KANG-thread (a little OT there...), if the video is coded in codec not supported by the phones hardware i.e. coded with webm like the example from the KANG thread...
www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBrsM_WlfV8
...it won't work.
no issues using your link in web browser here, using Gueste2X_v2.2_Final_Kernel_SR1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20956639&postcount=188 with update here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21137862&postcount=287 with kernel giveMeRC6_only.zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21147811&postcount=295
no OC only UV as shown in his giveMeRC6 post. really good rom for me. that trailer is smooth.
That trailer above game of thrones plays fine also.
Hello!
Now I tried it with vodonkas new KANG kernel build from yesterday and must say - impressive...
With or without ramhack - the HD Trailer from Avenger I linked will run without glitches in browser window and full screen at 720p.
Without the distortions - I had with ironknL!
CM 7.2 no problem in standart browser. opera in fullscreen is destorted.
No problem for me either.
CM7 KANG 33, standard browser.
My problem is that it plays for a while and then the screen freezes but the sound continues playing. And yes I am talking about youtube in browser.
Hello!
Standard question as always - are you using latest KANG?
Using a custom kernel will speed up things to...
As for me it works using latest KANG + latest ironkrnL 32MB ramhack @1.3Ghz.
...that is using Dolphin HD 7.3.0 or standard CM7 browser...
And yes it doesn't work with every 720p video - they must use a compatible meaning hardware supported codec...it is after all a phone an not a Quad core desktop computer an even on a desktop you are lost when the codec isn't properly supported....
And I need a good WiFi connection - didn't test this with 3G so far.
Works for Me.

Hello, I am searching for a smooth photo browser for my Xoom. All I tried were laggy, or not HD, even the stock photo browser is laggy.
Can anyone help me to find a smooth HD photo browser ?
Thanks !

Quickpic is nice but very very laggy... Not smooth at all.

Quickpic is very good on my Xoom, no lag, smooth transitions. You must have something taking CPU in the background. Unless of course you have 24Mpixel pics or similiar, in which case any Arm device will struggle.
Another +1 for quickpic

No, I have nothing running in background. Even no Widgets, or no animated background. I want my Xoom (running Honeycomb 3.2) to be as smooth as possible, so I'm very concerned by the background apps.
Quickpic is a nice app, but when I pinch to zoom, or when I let slide my photos, it's a bit laggy, not smooth. I don't understand why it would be smooth on your Xooms.
Would ICS let quickpic run smoother than on honeycomb ?

I have to say ICS is MUCH smoother in my opinion. Especially the EOS custom ICS rom. It is very snappy and responsive.

For the most part I'd say so. There have been a few apps that I've run into that aren't quite compatible with ICS, but otherwise all is well.

Large Image Viewer is the best for large image with smooth edges

Large image viewer crashes on my xoom with HC 3.2.1.
About photo slides, I don't like its ergonomy. I could display one picture but didn't find how to zoom. I also found annoying the need of selecting each picture one by one to display a full folder.

with photo slide, you can only choose it when docked, if you are rooted?
no u don't need to be rooted to dock just start app u can also use app Tasker and have it go through lock screen force start on dock I just recommend the ics root for stability and performance and custom options the nightlys are pretty much stable for all stuff

Nearly every browser has a pinch to zoom problem on the Nexus 4, Chrome is a pile of crap as it is but it also happens on the AOSP browser where you have to have your fingers almost an inch apart before it will recognise that your trying to zoom. Anyway ill stop complaining now This isnt a hardware defect. Download FireFox browser. There is NO ZOOM LAG! So im guessing it can be fixed relatively soon, maybe. A thanks would be appreciated if I helped in any way!

The thing I use my tablet for most is reading books in PDF format (well, and web/email, etc). I've been using the TF700 for a while, but I've found it to be noticeably less smooth in rendering and scrolling through PDFs than, say, either of the Nexus 7 models or my old Galaxy Tab 10.1. The motion as I scroll down is always somewhat jagged. I don't know if that's a function of ASUS' graphics drivers or of the tablet's I/O issues (although keeping files on the SD card doesn't help so it probably isn't that).
Does the TF701 improve on this aspect?
Best for PDFs in my eyes is the Kindle App :good:
I want to change page left/right (not up/down), and I want to have it quick! Changes as well as displayed in good quality. Kindle does this very very well and I am reading a lot of magazines (about 50 MB and more per PDF) on my tablets... No problems with zoom or something, I like it very much
I tried a lot of PDF readers but only the Kindle app fits my needs, give it a try...
The installed polaris is pretty choppy so I didnt bother recording. Adobe pdf reader is much better. Still not butter smooth but much better.
UPDATE: Looks like it just needed to be cached as the PDF was pretty huge. See my post #6 for new result.

ezPDF reader is my choice
Enviado desde mi ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T usando Tapatalk 4
It looks like the pdf just had to be cached and now it's smooth with adobe reader. Same happened to my HP slatebook x2.
I use ezPDF reader myself, but I was really asking how readers perform on this particular set of hardware as compared to other tablets (since I've seen extreme variations from device to device).
Thanks for the helpful video, although it may be difficult to know for sure without seeing the 701 in person.
When you look at size, weight, build quality, speed, screen and price you cannot find a better Internet consumption device available today than the Tab S 10.5.
For what it is it is the best there is.
i'm getting one next month

just wish Amazon weren't pushing their Fire tablets so hard, then we could have Amazon Instant Video as well
not sure if the flash/dolphin hack still works but for those of us in EU, silverlight only
this could the start of premium android tablets driving apps designed for that screen real estate
can only be a good thing for the sector in general

I use PlayOn (not free) for AIV and the rest (Hulu, HBOGO, TBS, Netflix, etc.). It uses the stock video player which works in multi view and pop-up-play. The stock player has lots of other features too like resizing, display settings, audio settings, and onscreen controls. So far, across the Notes, Pros, and S', the stock browser is the most responsive. I don't want to screw around with multiple browsers and Flash just to watch AIV. YMMV.
I like to watch mind numbing sitcoms while doing work on my tablet so view them in a pop-up-play window at the same time. Here's How I Met Your Mother on AIV...
Speaking of the stock browser. Any idea how we get it to sink with our Chrome Bookmarks? It used to do that but seems like it no longer does. How do I import my bookmarks?
I like Dolphin for one reason. Like the swipe bookmark sidebar that no one else has. Maxthon is also outstanding for easy bookmark navigation.

It went away when Google forked WebKit. You can sink your (Samsung) devices via your Samsung account though.

Well its not super amoled and has lower resolution. If neither of those appeal to you then yeah, it's not bad.
The only think about the stock browser, that bugs me to no end is, the fact you can keep "desktop view" on, at all times. I have too constantly select it for every website. They made a huge error, in that regard.

If only auto-correct checked grahamer.
If you want a fast good looking browser that syncs bookmarks nicely over the cloud try Maxthon HD for Tablets. Very nice. One feature I really like is the ability to instantly go back to the prior page without reloading it from the web. It also does prefetch well. Pages seem to load very quickly.
I just got mine today... am extremely impressed with it so far. Very lightweight and good quality, screen is stunning, very fast so far as well. Now ive only just about set it up and haven't really done much yet so this will get a update later. all ive done is update all the apps, took a look at Galaxy Gifts and Essentials, and setup a few differents apps on it.

Nothing a decent debloating or rom can't solve. This Tab S 10.5 is pure ocular joy. Every day I am amazed by the extreme resolution, deep blacks and vibrant colors. The only reason I can see for going with the Sony is if you plan to use the tablet in the tub ☺.
thanks, sounds interesting...

I'm not pro or anti Sony. But their bezels are just huge on all their devices. The Z2 tablet being waterproof is its only advantage over Samsung's tablets. You get a 1/2 larger display on the S in a smaller footprint. Until I see posts like yours I forget Sony even makes tablets.

Sadly I'm returning mine today. I was so caught up in media consumption with the screen I neglected the web browsing experience which is less than subpar imo. My Asus tf700t did a better job web browsing and that was a piece of **** for lack of a better term. I'm loving the screen and battery life but I've tried all the tricks to get chrome running smoothly and it just suffers. Other web browsers aren't any better either so so long my love, I enjoyed the pleasure while it lasted :crying:

If the N10.1-14 on 4.3 was faster than the TF-701 on 4.4 there's something amiss. AnandTech's Sunspider scores for the 8.4/10.5 were 1,082/1,015. That's pretty poor considering they and the N10.1-14 share h/w. Hopefully updates will improve things. As for Chrome, for whatever reason, it's a slug on all Samsung's high-end tablets and has been widely discussed on all their forums.

Did you try Maxthon HD Tablet browser? It is amazingly fast and full featured. Regardless for me Chrome ran perfectly albeit I don't care for how it handles bookmarks so I switched to Maxthon. Nevertheless, lag was never a problem and Web pages always looked great and loaded fast.
When I hear these reports of terrible responsiveness in something as basic as Web browsing I have to wonder if you have a defective unit or some sort of software causing a resource conflict. Are you still using Touchwiz? Did you try another launcher such as Nova or GO? There is simply no way a tablet with this level of hardware should struggle at Web browsing at all.
