Both video and audio stutter when playing media video. Tried on Youtube and Pornhub.
However this didn't happen before yesterday when i tried to play flash content http://www.ddsahyadri.in/liveTv.php. This happeed after this incident or maybe i never noticed this lag as i hardly use HP to stream video.
I tried to fix this, Disabled all addons( ublock origin, privacy badger,Https everywhere, Dark bg &Light text) and tried playback again, nothing changed. Video was still laggy.
I've reinstalled Firefox with no addons installed , still stuttering is present.
Anyone else have this issue ?
Have you tried to clear app data and try again?

Yes, yes i did.
So you don't have a choppy video playback on Firefox ?
No. But I don't use add-ons on mobile Firefox so I wouldn't know. Someone said that when under 20% phone becomes slower, maybe that's the deal? Also, did you restart your phone soon?

I have choppy playback everywhere on my Honor Play COR-TL10, ON YouTube, chrome and Instagram as well. It sucks
Hope EMUI 9 fixes it soon. Or we get a custom rom with good graces of developers

The battery was at around 80 percent.
At first i uninstalled FF then rebooted my device after which did a fresh install of FF with no extra addons.
The problem still persisted.
Seeing that nothing worked i thought the theme was maybe causing the issue so i removed the EMUI dark theme did a restart. Installed of FF performed a hard boot. And so after 3-4 reboots the videoplayback on Firefox is not choppy now : )

Looks like something have changed att youtube because it's like the built in youtube application is suddenly struggling to play the high res videos. It's not a buffering issue, I've checked that already. Videos get short pauses now and then, almost like the hardware acceleration is disabled. I doubt I'm the only one experiencing this...
Could you link me to this youtube app, please? I went directly to the youtube site yesterday and streamed a couple of short vids which played ok but with buffering. It played in the stream app on the phone and I couldn't zoom it or do full screen. What does the youtube app do differently? Does it allow better streaming or full screen or something?
I mean the original youtube app thats pre-installed in the Diamond. It uses hardware acceleration to play videos with nice quality and smooth framerate, now it's not that good anymore so I'm guessing something have changed at youtube... It's strange though...

That app doesn't appear to be on my phone, the t-mobile compact 4.
Maybe your operator removed it from your Diamond rom??? You can install it separately, check here for info and the download: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=472940
Just make sure you install the VGA one... But you probably already knew that of course...

Yep, I suspect t-mobile did indeed remove it. Thanks for the link!
Your welcome If for some reason the app refuses to play the videos on your Diamond you might need to install the youtube fix aswell...: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2657501&postcount=164

Okey dokey, thanks. It's installed now and rebooting. I'll try the fix if it doesn't work. And no, I didn't know I needed the VGA version so thanks for pointing that out.
Ok, I installed the fix because the screen looked a bit messed up and the text is tiny and I can't seem to zoom in. Stil the same with the fix however the video runs very well. But, the capture area is a small square on the left bottom corner in landscape mode. I'll take some pictures of my screen for you.
Ok, here's 2 screenshots. It defaults to playing in landscape but only the small area you can see. Where I type to search, the letters are cut off (see 'CATS AND DOGS') and the text is microscopically small. Any adjustments I can make? Is it possible for the seartch to bring up more than 5 results?
At least it works though, very smooth playback.
That looks very strange... Videos should play fullscreen in landscape...
I suggest you to uninstall that version & the fix and get this version instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=481495
It's a newer version of the HTC youtube player, download the second link, the full version: http://www.uploadjockey.com/download/4336552/Youtube_v1.6.1820.4128_FULL.zip
I really hope this will solve your problems and make it work as it should, if not I'm out of ideas since I'm not an expert in this area...

Thanks man, I'll give it a try.
This is odd. I've installed it successfully and it shows up in 'remove programs' but it doesn't show up anywhere else, nowhere to be found in program files, (the other version did), so I can't start the app. This happened when installing to the internal storage, uninstalling it, and reinstalling to the device.
I'll reinstall the earlier version and then do the upgrade version, see if that helps.
Yes that worked! Thanks for the links owziee
I notice that I can scroll up and down the list of videos with the centre button, but it doesn't respond to screen touch with finger, is it meant to be like that? Anyway, not bothered, just wondering. I'm happy now, the quality is great, it's full screen and the text is normal size now.
No thats not normal, I can use my finger to scroll but at least you can watch the videos now. Maybe you'll find a fix for the scrolling issue.

I suppose it may be that because your Diamond came pre fitted with a youtube app that perhaps it was optimised to work with touch screen? Whereas mine is a t mobile phone which didn't come with youtube on it.
Hey,
I recently updated my Xperia X1 to generic R3a, and then installed the Youtube app/panel onto it.
Nearly every video stutters, like the frame rate drops randomly. I dont think I noticed that issue on firmware R1A. .. so does anyon else have this issue? can someone help me diagnose it?
Uninstall all of your youtube relate cabs and install this.
Once that is installed you can play YouTube videos perfectly. The YouTube application you just installed is Google's YouTube Application.
Okay, now that it's done download the ZIP below, unzip, and install HTC's YouTube Application Cabs.
edit cant upload xda forums not working
Errr
NVM I got it installed... so this is the offical one, huh?
NVM I got it installed. So how do I get a panel?
The panels don't work anymore. I think. Atleast not after I install the new panel manager.
"New panels manager"? What do you mean? And is this new youtube app supposed to be better than the other one that supposedly worked fine on R1A? I guess ill have to settle with this one, even though this one still has stuttering (to a lesser degree).
I think you are absolutely clueless. What do you mean stuttering? Are you talking about your crappy internet connection? If so, that isn't stuttering. Sigh...
...
By stuttering, I meant that the frames dropped dramatically at random times in the video. Moreover, my connection is fine, and I tried two wifi access points.

oh that just means the Xperia is slow. Most of the time my Xperia never lags. I think R3A makes Xperia faster. Something is wrong.
Are there other people who have noticed the lag on youtube? Can anyone test it with this youtube app Otherwise than that, the Xperia is running super fast. Oh, do you reccomend a custom ROM I should try to flash it to?- Thanks
Can anyone esle try the youtube app (this one) and see if it lags? Also, poetryrocksalot, do you recommend a custom ROM I should try that can boost the speed of my xperia and youtube?

After upgrading to Android 4.4 (stock), the video is not played smoothly.
Every now and then it would freeze for a fraction of a second, which is enough to notice...
Tested with the YouTube and TED apps.
Any suggestions?

I wanted to add that it's not just video that is lagging, but also standard Android/Sense animation. For example when swapping between BlinkFeed articles (right to left), sometimes the animation is not smooth and gets stuck for less than a second, but it's very noticeable...
So the problem is system-wide and not limited to video.
Is there anything I can do?
Can it be an app that I have installed which causes this?
My phone is not rooted...
Could a reset to the factory settings resolve this?

Anyone experiencing YouTube issues with the 6.0.1 update? When I scroll while watching a video the video lags. I googled some solutions and turned on disable hw overlay in the dev settings and that helped.
But now the video freezes while watching it in landscape. So I'm not really sure what to do.
Tried uninstalling the app and clearing data, cache, reinstalling etc. Any ideas?
Bump
Youtube for me is ok , i am un 6.0.1
I get lag while scrolling too
I have no issue with youtube. I use it daily and never see a bit of lag. Mind you I use an aosp based rom that is 6.0.1.
Damn. I might have to do a full wipe.
I enabled 'disable hw overlay' and all is ok, both portrait and landscape mode.

This solution for me worked for Youtube and Twitch, but totally broke Netflix (no image on videos, just sound) and I had to reverse the change to be able to watch on it again.

I have the same issue and its making me crazy! I'm going to try downgrading to a different version of youtube to see if it continues. If that doesn't work then I'm gonna format the phone completely

Probably won't work, because even twitch has the same issue, so this seems more general in stock 6.0.1 ROM.
If your clean install work please post here.

Yes, I said in a previous post. This fixes the YouTube problem (and Twitch as I saw with the same issue), but it breaks other video apps. After switching this option in developer settings I couldn't see videos in Netflix anymore (you can hear it, but no image).

Lol now I remember where I saw it. Well I don't use Netflix so I'm good for now. Hope an update fix the issue
I'll do a clean install later on next week. Upgrading computer currently. But hw overlay does fix the YouTube problem for now at least. I have to pause and press play on the video to get it to not freeze so that's still annoying
Any updates from anyone? Just upgraded to the newest update and the problem persists. Hw overlay still fixes the problem however my other video apps like Netflix and Google play movies just give a black screen until I disable it.
(Was a clean install)

Works for me! Still some laggy scrolling in other apps - but YouTube now works perfectly.
Running CM13 latest nightly.
If I'm watching a video on YouTube and scroll the comments. The video literally freeze until I'm done scrolling. I uninstalled and wipe date etc. Im on chroma 12- 10 with latest franco kernal and the phone runs smooth everywhere else. What's the issue?

Facing the same issue, checking hw overlays solve this issue but I'm not a dev and I don't know if always checking hw overlay is ok or harmful for the phone
this seems to be a bug with the youtube app on the most recent update. also experiencing same thing..
watching youtube on uc browser doesnt have this issue.. so this is basically an issue with the official youtube app..
This lag has been fixed few weeks ago, but after 6.0.1 released it has returned. Just wait for YouTube app to update

tmobile has the new binge on feature, that lowers the quality of youtube video(even though youtube usnt included). thats why. and the fix for that is to disable binge on.

nice to know.. but yes im also having some lag on youtube, but not most of the time.. the most prominent lag is when you are scrolling on videos below the player from the official youtube app and video playback stutters but not the sound but it resumes good after you stop on scrolling ...
