Could someone test this for me?
Ive got an i9000m, 10.12 hw date (3rd back from bell repair).
I remember with my previous phone being able to play (smoothly) flash video from sites such as tsn.ca
I was trying to watch the world jr game last night (first time trying flash video with the new phone) and it was extremely jerky. I was on a wifi connection which was more than good enough to stream video. This was with the stock JL2 firmware.
Knowing that flash worked great with the previous phone running a beta 2.2 version, I installed darkys v8 this morning, thinking JL2 may of been the cause of the issue, and im finding the same results.
Could it be my new phone? Could someone else load up tsn.ca and see if the video streams smoothly.
Thanks
some videos are not optimized for mobile and will be very jerky and other flash vids that have same or even better quality will run fine. don't ask me why
I get that, but its just odd, as it worked fine before.
as well, sites like atdhe.net streamed flawlessly before, now they are extremely jerky (basically unwatchable)
Updated Flash Player v????
jje
Yes I have,
flash is updated to latest from market.
I have the exact same problem with www.tsn.ca full site along with several other sites like www.ign.com. Did anyone find a solution? Thanks.
Ever since I upgraded to MicroMod777's Gingerbread ROM, my YouTube HQ videos will not play properly. The audio will play without any problem, but the video will just get stuck on one frame; it is not a matter of streaming it or anything like that.
I used to have the MIUI Froyo-based ROM and stock Froyo before that, and there were no such issues. A Google search has also not revealed any answers. Initially I thought it was just an early version (v.10) glitch... but yesterday I upgraded to v.19 and still have the same problem! I don't know if this is a Gingerbread issue, ROM issue, Nexus One issue or YouTube issue. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
You need to flash the zip stated in op. You went and Google search, but didn't bother reading the entire first post. Amazing.
Hi guys;
I bought an optimus 4x hd, unfortunately there is some connection issues, actually its connect wifi and surfing web without problem, but when i watch any video on web its stop after a while. For example i can't watch TED talks, because videos stop streaming after 01:30 usually, same as at TED Air and Youtube videos.
Weirdly its not happening on 3G connection, its happening only on wifi.
Does anybody have same issue? What is wrong about my phone? Thanks...

Some pages require "Flash Player", even if they said that we don't need it or not compatible with ICS 4.0.3...
You can try install "Flash Player" and "Adobe Air", probably will help.
To see youtube videos its better to have the youtube app. You can find it in PlayStore.

MIght be a problem with your Wifi? I have never had such issues. Is it on any Wi-Fi?
no problems here also , working perfect on wifi and 3g, i can watch a whole movie on youtube. Using V10f ,rooted.
I already have flash player and adobe air, helps nothing. Yes, its happening only on wifi, 3g connection is fast and perfect.
My modem brand name is "Airties", maybe its because of my modem type. Also i've learned that this problem is common issue at phones with İCS 4.03.
Thanks for replys though.
Despite the 4x HD i have Samsung Galaxy S Wifi 5.0 ( known Galaxy Player) too, Gingerbread 2.3.6 on it, there is no wifi or video streaming problems, so i think its must be something with ICS.

I have a Sprint HTC One M7 which is S-Off and WAS rooted/on a custom rom. Why emphasize WAS? Because recently I've developed a strange issue. Any/ALL stock Sense based rom refuses to play stream videos, YouTube videos or any other videos in general. I have searched the issue up online and not one matching case on XDA. Other sources solutions are ridiculous. The funny thing is that videos play 100% fine on any AOSP based rom. This device is not currently connected to Sprint at all, only WiFi, same issue on any WiFi network I try. Oh, back to the emphasis on WAS, I have tried to factory reset, wipe internal storage, and finally, flashed an RUU and took OTA updates up to official Sense 6 and still no luck.
I have read some complications due to Google Movies app but I don't use or touch that app at all, regardless, how is it possible that that app is to interfere specifically with STREAM videos out of all videos sources? And how come it gives no issues on non-Sense based roms?
Any reasonable suggestions/solutions will gladly be THANKED.
SOLVED: Weird, I updated all Google Play apps and it seems to be working. Or it mayjust have been the Youtube online mobile site causing problems instead. I did indeed experience problems with video streaming on websites other than YouTube on other Sense roms, but in the case of returning to stock, it seems to have been a simpler issue
I was wrong, started happening again randomly with all videos again...this is hopeless.

Yeah its annoyingly random. I had to jump back to a custom aosp-based rom in the meanwhile. It was working again then it just stopped. I wanted to stick to a Sense based rom as the battery life is very promising. For now i have chosen Beanstalk for its stability/battery life as my temporary choice. I just wish I knew what causes it. Doesnt sound like any Androud virus I've ever heard of, and I've never actually heard of an android virus except something about rootkits.

My theory is that there's something wrong with the libs on a Sense ROM, that makes it incompatible with the newer versions of YouTube. Might be wrong though, since I'm not a developer. Also, since it happens randomly >.>.

Its not just YouTube its actually...everything. Netflix, MTV app, YouTube, both stock web browser and Chrome when streaming videos, the list goes on. I didnt get to test what happens with videos played from the internal storage though...
I've got a Tmobile Note 4 running Lollipop (updated OTA yesterday). I use a Samsung Wireless Dongle and Screen Mirroring to watch some shows. I noticed yesterday that video playback has become extremely choppy since the Lollipop update. Anyone else experiencing this issue? I double checked my network settings and everything is working smoothly. Video playback on the Note 4 itself is just fine. Just choppy on my TV screen when Screen Mirroring through the Wireless Dongle. Any ideas about how to address this would be much appreciated. I am rooted, running stock TouchWiz Lollipop ROM, if that matters.
Try without the dongle? It does work wireless if you have a smart tv
I have the dongle because I don't have a Wi-Fi Direct/Screen Mirroring capable television. I did dig around in Application Manager and found Wi-Fi Direct Share, and I've cleared the cache and data for it. I'll try it out this evening to see if that will get it working smoothly again.
Should note that on KitKat, the Dongle worked just fine. It is a Samsung brand wireless dongle.
There is no data nor cache to clear on Screen Mirroring app itself nor on the Wi-Fi Direct app. So crossing my fingers this Wi-Fi Direct Share has something to do with it.
I have the same samsung wireless dongle but since I updated to 5.0 i havent had the chance to stream, ill give input in a few when i get home. Also i had a lot of freezing while watching movies on 4.4 not sure if you ever experienced that, it was very annoying. Also I'm stock.
Still not resolved
Wireless dongle playback is still choppy as described in OP. Interested to here from others. A better description might by jerky... Audio is just fine. Might dig around in the build.prop file later. Otherwise, any feedback from others experiencing this issue or others who might have an idea for troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated.
Try booting up in recovery and wiping cashe partition that seems to fix a lot of strange problems for me.
No such luck, mate. Thanks for the suggestion, though. It's bareable as is right now, but it does bug the **** out of me. Haha. I'm just wondering if anyone else out there is experiencing this. I'm thinking of borrowing a Chromecast off someone to see if it has the same issue. I mean, the video in every app is smooth as butter on my phone screen, but the TV is jerky ever so slightly via the Samsung Dongle. I know it's not just me because my wife who typically cares less about tech noticed it.
Leave it to good ol Sammy. Sort of like that BS way they built screen mirroring to break on rooted devices using third party (read:non Samsung dongle) back on the Note 3. Anyone have an idea of something I could try to edit in the build.prop file? Any other ideas? I found an app on the Play Store that's meant to fix Screen Mirroring issues after an update, but when loaded it doesn't give me the option to run it, apparently it thinks I am already patched. Oh. And Samsung was the manufacturer of that app, go figure. So apparently this has happened in in the past?
If all else fails, I may just try a fresh install. I'm trying to wait for the latest version of TWRP because I heard some folks have had no luck flashing ROMs through TWRP after upgrading to Lollipop OTA and then rooting (which is what I did; I never rooted on KitKat because I wanted to keep my 1 yr Sammy Warranty intact, just in case). I know tripping Knox apparently doesn't affect the Tmobile insurance, but I've read varying stories on whether it affects your Sammy factory warranty.
Well. I'm off off to play some AC Unity on the PS4. I'll check back later. Happy trails
I am experiencing the same issue ever since I updated to lollipop. Video mirroring to my Samsung smart TV very choppy.
Nobody has any possible solutions for this? Please give it a shot if you have any ideas whatsoever. Now we have two confirmed reports.
Quick update. Hard reset and even unroooting the device didn't resolve the issue. Definitely something baked into to the latest TMO stock ROM
I've even had the screen freeze on the chromecast when mirroring but audio still plays
@knarfies I used to get a similar issue with Netflix but Lollipop resolved it. So can you connect with Chrome cast, but it freezes occasionally? How often is it happening? The Samsung Dongle works without freezing audio or video but is jerky enough for me and the wife to notice. Wasn't like that on KitKat.
I'm running stock and im using the samsung dongle and the video actually plays smoother on 5.0, when I was on 4.4 it use to freeze all the time I'm not sure why is not playing gird for you guys, plus whatever I was on 4.4 the video playback in general would freez during playback even when I was not screen mirring.
I am currently rooted with a custom kernel and stock ROM, but even before the mods, it was no longer working correctly. Samsung has an app on the Play Store to patch problems with Screen Mirroring after a software upgrade, but when I downloaded it, it said I was already patched. Even after a hard reset and completely non rooted stock everything it hasn't worked perfectly like it did on KitKat since Lollipop.
