I have got the Sony Xperia Z5 premium and I am trying to watch 4K videos in the YouTube app, I have enabled the filter to find 4K videos, which I know definitely run in 4K on a desktop computer, however I don't have the option to change the resolution to 4K within the YouTube app, it only goes up to 1080p.
I've just got a new Z3 with Lollipop pre-installed and found that YouTube playback via the default app is choppy/stuttery. I tried factory resets/ updating the YouTube app/clearing cache/turning the x-reality engine on/off, but of no avail.
The videos play perfectly fine on my much older Xperia s, so pretty sure this not on the YouTube end.
Firstly, when I watch video on youtube about 4-6 clips - the error message appear: "Please touch to try again" - even I touch multiple times it still can not play.
Then, I go to the Video App (Sony), surprisingly, the video didn't play. It appear an error message: "Can not play this video" - I try with every single video on my phone and still has the same error message.
And more surprisingly, even the video on facebook have the same problem too.
So it must be like: If I watch video on any app, suddenly the clip can not play or just keep loading infinity, these app will be "infected" immideately (at the same time as well). The only thing I can do is reboot the phone.
I know reboot phone is just spend my little time around 15-30 seconds maybe. But it is very annoying to happen with very frequently.
Yesterday my LG G3s requested an update where everything seemed to change a bit. My buttons changes to triangle, square and circle. Some other animations as well. I then used the YouTube app and realized there was no 1080p option anymore. Not only that but videos that have only 1080p quality (yes there are some of those) are suddenly "unavailable on this device".
I have a Nexus 6 running 6.0.1 now, and am subscribed to Google Music, Red, and all that comes with it.
My issue is, after the App & OS updated, my saved offline videos have just recently gone into playing the next video automatically. So for instance, if I want to fall asleep at night watching a single 45 minute video, the whole darn list will play, and sooner or later, it gets to that head banging music video, and I wake up.
I just got my S5 yesterday. When viewing a video in YouTube, the video will ALWAYS hang at 30 second intervals (not exact, but close). Pull up any video, hit play, everything is fine and stutter-free, but then at 30 seconds the video freezes (audio continues). If I move the timeline position cursor, the video continues again, but will freeze up again after another 30 seconds. It does this every time without fail.
The specific solutions (the few that seem to work for the person posting) don't apply to the S5).
I was recently watching a YouTube video in my room and suddenly my phone stopped the screen flicker'd 3 times and shut down, now it wont come back on even when i plug it into the charger...????!
So, how to get it working again? without taking it to the ATT store...? since it shutoff and won't come back on my Snap chat, Hot or not, Facebook, and all my numbers are basically Gone if this doesn't work
Since buying the phone (couple weeks ago), I haven't been able to steam any videos on HD (720P and above) without the video buffering numerous times. I streamed movies from Google Play Movies and Netflix. I don't know if the resolution is going down to allow me to stream the videos, but I'm getting very frustrated. My LTE is full, never had a problem in my area with other phones. It's hardly better on Wi-Fi
Getting video playback issues on their 6p? YouTube plays at like 1-5 frames per second. I tried watching a movie with MX player and same thing. VLC player plays movies normally, but the audio is gone.
So i recently found out how to change the video quality on youtube... but is there anyway to make a default setting for it? Rather than having to change the setting on every video...
I listen to a great deal of podcasts, audiobooks and music on youtube. Oftentimes I want to work and listen at the same time, so I will put my phone in my jacket/pants/table while I work, but sometimes I will bump the screen while working and it stops the YouTube video or makes it jump ahead/back.
Just been wondering about the stupid border around the screen when watching a YouTube video in landscape mode. It's the border with the 3 dots on the right which indicate home, back, and previous tasks button, and the top border with the time and everything.. It's annoying because it blocks some of the video of there something going on on the top or right side. Sometimes I can sail it away and it'll go away. Other times its stuck there..
Is there a specific setting to disable it, or a certain gesture?
I dont know how to save any video i download from youtube to phone.i try go video(that green icon) but nothing there. On photo also dont have,only my video recording does found from photo..
I just want to find out if you have a 1520 which has an external memory - SD card. If you download video clips from "tube download" & "YouTube Downloader free" apps for offline viewing. Where are these video clips stored - phone memory or SD card?
My Sony Xperia z2 will not let me access my youtube account.. I tried couple of time but always saying that "there was a problem with communicating with Google services "
When I updated my z3 to lollipop I found a problem in youtube app it's become not playing videos anymore. I tried to delete the cash but nothing happened even I tried to reinstall it again but not solved.
Finally I thought maybe the Google play service it's old or not compatible or something like that but nothing change even with latest update from Google play service.
For notice I do format to my phone before I install the new update to Android lollipop.
The status bar and buttons overlap the full screen view, obscuring those parts of the video window. How do I get either full screen or at least have the video resize
I have my Sony Z3+ just for ten days. I didn't inspected it very well when I bought it. I just use it as phone. But today I wanted to make photos of some importance to me and I got just green photos. you can see the view below. When I take the photo, I can see her just fine, but when it is saving, it become green. The video recording works and saves just fine (the only "alive" view in the picture below).
The second issue that I have is youtube movie look. They are not of clean view, there are rectangular dashes moving on the screen all the time.
I also couldn't connect to the new secured wifi network today. I opened the wifi connection put the password but the button to save the connection was inactive. I could just close the window...
