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.

I think I am getting poor quality from Plex when connected to the TV its pretty pixelated... anyone else have that? Or is it an option I haven't played with

Too little information to give you a good answer. But yes, there are options for streaming bandwidth for example that can affect quality.
On the main settings page on the plex app on the xoom, you can change bandwidth that it uses over local, over wan, and over 3g (not useful on wifi xooms). Above 2mbps and all my HD moves and tv shows look 100% HD on the xoom with no jitters, stutters, blurring, nor fragmentation. Couldn't be happier. I'm pretty sure that is the one major setting which will affect quality. That and the quality of the input video of course
edit: Also, I'm pretty sure there is an option to down-mix DTS to stereo on the server through the web browser interface. I would definitely recommend enabling that for playback on the xoom.
Ok all settings were on auto. Changes local to 5mbs but what is remote WiFi... when you are on WiFi but the media isnt?
Thanks

Remote Wifi is when you are still on Wifi, but a different network from your server (at a friend's or halfway across the world). The most important factor here is the upload speed capability of your server. I keep my Local at 5mbps, remote at 2mbps, and don't have 3g so can't comment on the last option (mobile broadband, 3g, or whatever they have it labeled, cant remember).
edit: Check out the Plex wiki on their website. It will answer pretty much every question you can think of. Extremely informative.
Looking better already! Odd that auto doesn't set itself pretty good when its local!
Also anyone have issues with video freezing when going into settings or pausing and the screen locking?

Since when does auto work right on anything?
No issues here, everything works perfectly.

The developer mentioned somewhere that the auto detection is pretty poor and that they would be working on it more in the future. The other advice about tweaking for each connection type is spot on as well

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?

Hi, Guys
I am using "[DEV/ROM/4.1.2] [Dec 21 2012] CM10 | Jelly Bean 4.1.2 - v3.0 for N1" this rom.
However, I met a problem that Youtube is not working on my phone while I am using 3G mobile data connection, but it works well when I am using WIFI.
Anyone has the same problem? Could anyone help me with this?
Cheers,
I did not have the problem. Perhaps your 3G connection is slow. Which ROM are you using? Vijendrahs ROM ?
Yep, I am currently using that one. I have tried other roms as well, they did not work either. I also tried other YouTube player like Tubemate, sometimes I could load the video or ads when I chose low resolution, e.g., 320x240. My 3g speed is actually quite decent, can up to 200kbs. I am wondering it has something to do with the operator or internet setting?

By looking at the App comments for the latest update, it looks like many users are facing this problem (Buffering/Video failing to load). Can you try putting an earlier version of Youtube and test?
btw, Youtube is not blocked in your country right?
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

Hey everyone,
I'm wondering if anyone has found out how to get Netflix working at better than 720x480 @ 1750kbps on our S6 Active? I can't imagine that our phone can't support 5800kbps 1920x1080p. I was testing on my 300mb/30mb WiFi that easily supports 5800kbps playback on my laptop and Apple TV.
I've tried the discontinued APK on XDA from Keychar. The app crashes after logging in. Is there another APK that works?
