There was a Netflix update the other day that added support for several new devices. Ever since the update, watching movies on my Nexus S has been a poor experience. The video stutters and freezes for a few seconds, then speeds up really fast to catch back up with the audio.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Anyone else get laggy video while watching Youtube or Netflix on their Galaxy 8.9 ICS? (I have a 10.1 ICS as well and the lag is the same).
I have noticed similar activity.

I'm not sure about netflix but I've got same stuttering/laggy HD videos in the youtube app as well after the update to ICS. It no longer streams HD videos smoothly. Switching HD off makes it play fine. I'm running stock ICS, and on HC it was smooth. Watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2YJggBVdeI
in youtube app. The stuttering is quite annoying, every 5-10 seconds.
It's not my bandwidth. I don't know if this is an ICS issue or the youtube app issue, but my phone with ICS has no problems playing HD videos in youtube app. Does anyone know a fix ? Thanks.

I did a factory reset and it didn't make any difference.

I'm getting the same problem too! Pretty frustrating. I'm happy with the ROM otherwise. Can anyone help?
Same problem myself. Downloading the YouTube video with Tubemate and there's no problem. No clue how to fix it. :/
Same here
HD videos in youtube that used to play flawlessly now stutter as mentioned above after the update to ICS. Is their an official samsung grievances forum where we can all go and put this as a bug?

Isn't the YouTube app from Google? Anyway, yes I do get the stuttering on some hd videos mainly those with a lot of action. I bet there is something wrong with the codec used by the YouTube app.

I bet not. Using AOKP it is fine, no stuttering. Samsung released something half baked.

Has anyone else noticed audio for YouTube and internet videos will lag behind the video that is playing. A reboot fixes this but it seems like it happens way more often than not. Has anyone else experienced this?

Just got my N3 today and so far I'm digging it. Only issue I'm having is when playing a video off the Web of through the video player it's stuttering/lagging like every 5 seconds. It does this either on wifi or 4g and I know it's not a buffering issue because the video can be 100% buffered and it will still lag. I didn't have this issue on my N2.

Check to see if Youtube videos do this as well, especially any HD content.
My note has started to studder everywhere. Reminds me of old school htc sense. Videos, scrolling through facebook/twitter. Messages app studder when scrolling, sometimes the keyboard doesn't wanna pop up.
I think we have no choice but to deal with these quirks with touch wiz

MLB recently added casting support to their mobile app but frankly it's pretty bad for me. Casting from a chrome tab on a PC works "fine", but I can't get more than a few innings when casting from the atbat app before it freezes. Then, in order to restart the stream you have to disconnect/reconnect the cc in the app, not simply reload the stream.
Anyone on a custom ROM tried it? Anyone else seen this, possible fixes?
My CC is on usb power from the TV so it sees fresh boots frequently. I've rebooted after a freeze only to get one batter's worth of feed afterward.
All other casting apps work great, but sadly not my most expensive streaming service.

I'm watching an archived game right now after plugging into a different power source besides the TV so far no freezes. I will try a live game tomorrow. It's possible the USB port on the TV doesn't supply constant enough power or something.

Only when casting from the app though? Google play movies, Hulu, Netflix; all of these services cast from their app without issue. I can also cast a whole game from a PC to the CC just fine.
I'll try an archive game tonight, I imagine that's a bit different than a live stream.

I loaded the same game up as an archive and i'm about to turn it off because it's been playing for over 2.5 hours with no issues. It's only the live streams that have problems.
EDIT/UPDATE: So today, Live streams are worse. Every live stream I click on plays a couple frames then gives error 1. Nice.
My live streams are perfect now that my device is no longer plugged into the TV for power.

Was AFK for a while, gave the mlb team some feedback about it & all is good, confirmed after several live games. They're actively tweaking on their end so GJ mlb. Still plugged into TV and all is fine, that wasn't my issue. Maybe your TV doesn't provide enough power on the usb port?

Do I have LTE where I'm at and it works great. I have supernatural speeds and everything loads quickly except youtube. I literally have to watch it at lowest resolution to be able to stream it? Could AT&T be throttling youtube for some reason?
No problem here. If is loading slow and this is only you tube that means they have problems with servers in your area.
