Flash video playback laggy - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I run Overcome 2.1.1 with pershoots kernel on an overclocked tab (1,4 GHz). Everything is fine besides flash video playback. Quadrant score is above 3.000.
I tried the videos from www.gamestar.de or www.laola1.tv. Preroll-ads are being played flawlessly but the real video is laggy and stuttering (music/speech is fine). I tried both the stock browser and Dolphin HD.
Any ideas? Thank you very much!

it does that to me too, for examle @ gorillavid, it continously looses framerate throughout the video 'till its unwatchable, but thats just because the certain servers i'd say

Hi!
My 2 cents:
I can play flash video on the tab and on tv without lag with the original rom and kernel 3.2.
But if I install pershoot kernel or a rom without the original kernel I get some lag
It gets worse if I conect the tab to the tv with the hdmi adapater.
Has anyone experienced the same?

Everyone can watch flash videos without lag or drpped frames?
I can with the stock rom, but can't with the developed roms

[Q] Flash Video and random reboot. (And jerky HD VIDEO)

With flash 10.2, after 5 mins into playing flash video(HD or no HD), the streak will reboots itself and I have to take out the battery for it to boot.
Does it happen to anyone else? I tried it on att 2.2, stock 2.2 (318 &345), streakdroid 1.9
And at the rare time it doesn't crash/reboot. HD flash videos are also very slow and jerky to a point it's unwatchable....
Take the HD videos at megavideo for example
not looking for solution, just wondering if it's the same for everyone else??
EDIT: to answer my own question without bumping.
Got a replacement streak, same jerky HD flash performance but doesn't restart by itself now, so it's definitely hardware problem. And this is on DJ steve's 1.9 with perfmod

[Q] Youtube HD (720p & 1080p) video stutter even on froyo

My first post on forum, my first tablet and first android device in general =)
First of all, thank you guys for all that great job.
Now the question:
I flashed my G-Tablet with vegan-tab 5.1.1 + supplement update + pershoot's OC Kernel 1.4 (set it with setCPU)
Tried to test HD video on youtube (720 & 1080) but it is laggy as hell (image stutter, audio/video asynchron.), tried stock browser and dolphin HD. 480p plays fine.
I know that froyo ROMs shouldn't have problems with hardware decoding or flash video is another story and all that is normal for g-tablet?
Thanks for quick reply
I don't think hardware acceleration will help with flash content. But I could be wrong.
thank you
anyone else?
I've been wondering about this myself. Is there a native YouTube app that has an option for HD playback? I know there are froyo/gingerbread "YouTube HD" apks floating around from a few of the EVO roms.
It seems ridiculous that a Tegra 2 chip wouldn't be able to handle downscaling 720p to our 1024x600 screen.
I have gtabcomb 3.3 on 1.1 and I have the same problem
Is there an hc from that work?

[HELP] me about playing HD Videos..

I need to play HD videos on my gTab. I have Vegan Tab gingeredition 2.3.5. I installed Kensed Player or something like that, it opened .mkv video but there was a lot of lag.
Can I play HD videos on 2.3.5 without lag?

Try VEGenTAB 7.1, It is the ROM that allows me to play H.264 stream smoothly. Seems like the gingerbread ROMs are better on video playback IMO. Btw OC to 1.5 will be fine. Good luck.

thanks for advice.
can you give me link of vegentab 7.1? and give me advise about kernel, which kernel is best?
I'm not sure if this will help, but you could try Summer Player. They keep changing the name of it but the version I have that is most stable is called best video player aka summer player. Its free.
This gave me the best video playback on my G2 running gingerbread. so maybe it will work for you.
Also plays 5.1 audio correctly.
update: I installed it on the Flashback 10.0 alpha rom (Honeycomb 3.1) annnnd it starts to play video then goes back to the file selection menu.

Here you go.

You can use Pershoot's (1.4) or Clemsyn's OC (1.6) kernel for gingerbread.
Pershoot's 1.4 use as is.
Clemsyn's 1.6 you should undervolt it by .50mv for all speed above 1Ghz.
Use setcpu to manage the OC.
Good luck.

[Q] Flash Video stuttering in Fullscreen...

Hey all.
I have Quadrant Score up to 2825 @ lazy 1,4GHz - [email protected] / RieGo Kernel 0.5 without GPU OC
It runs really fast and smooth...
But my Tab is unable to play some Flash Videos (no HD... think 640x480 or less) in Fullscreen without stuttering.
On my SGSII (2.3.4 Stock) the Same Movie runs without any problems.
Honeycomb or Flash issue? Tab to slow?
Disgusting... :-(
Any Ideas to optimize the performance from the tab without changing the Rom?

Thats not tab's mistake. I m in china and they have one website called youku just like YouTube. Its big website and when i try to play video it stutters so much. But when i play videos in other websites like engadget its just flawless. So i think its problem of some websites flash or JavaScript. I guess so.
But the exact Same Video from same Website runs without Problems on my SGSII.
And its not a problem with the Connection... only with fullscreen it stutters! Without fullscreen it plays okay.

With HC 3.2 the problem is gone!

[Q] HD videos from youtube choppy after upgrade to ICS

Hello!
After upgrading to ICS 4.0.4 the video from Youtube are playing not smooth. This happens only to HD videos, SD videos are okay. This happened after I upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 from 3.x. Before that everything was good. When I enable "Show CPU usage" in "Developer option", I see that skipping frames starts when mediaserver uses the cpu (I attached a screenshot). Tried to to "Factory reset" - did not help. When I did factory reset, tried to watch any HD video - same thing. I use the tabled only to read news and watch something from youtube. Some other application are installed (for Kids).
WIFI signal is strong, I see that video is buffering ahead of playing, not rooted.
Question is - what to do to fix this issue with ICS 4.0.4 or how do I roll back to 3.2 or even to the ROM that was in the box when I bought it.
You cant really fix it if you are not rooted. Samsung's fault.
The only way of fixing it is going back to HC and rooting and installing Custom ICS or JB roms did not help at all for me.
In HC, the Youtube plays smoothly in the app, but still lags in the web browser..in www.m.youtube.com
In ICS and JB, both options lag like hell.
I downloaded Pimp My ROM from google play, and set everything possible that is present to make the tab faster and perform better, and the youtube is a little bit better now, but still there are lags. It's definitely better though.
But still, Youtube in HC plays better.
