I recently bought a GigaSpace GS290 and installed /e/ on it.
Like it so far but I have one problem with the App NewPipe and I was asking myself if the problem is the App or the phone.
I cannot watch videos with more than 720p.
On 1080p or highter the videos start to stutter as if there is a too slow connection.
The connection is not the problem. On my old iPhone or even on my TV we can watch 4K videos without any problems.
Is the problem the phone or the App?
Is the phone too slow to watch movies at 1080p or 4K or has the App itself a problem?
Maybe another user with a GS290 can help me out?
Greetings and thank you very much in advance for your replys.
In my case, with newpipe i can’t see 1080p because the video lagged and interrupted everytime. So you can try Libretube (like newpipe but more quick) and select 1080p if it will work mean newpipe is the problem, if not i think it’s a hardware limit of gs290.
Try changing the ‘videoformat’, MPEG-4 is default i think. For me changeing to WebM help on one of my devices (not a GS290). It’s a codec problem I guess, either hardware or software. But since today some videos from certain channels stutter again…
