I used Paranoid Android which is as close to stock Google as you can get. That's interesting, because I tested both a device specific and AOSP based build of each 4.4.2 4.4.3 and 4.4.4, and all gave me same overall results with some small variations. Much love to Plex THE Media Streaming Solution Hope this helps as I can’t update Android until I can take my media with me :-). I am just not a high end android code monkey yet so I would be lost trying to look at and try code modifications so I wanted to at least make plex android team aware as there are MANY Android versions in use and devices upgraded to and using the newest version can take awhile. I am very good with Plex and all other clients run perfectly. Synced content also played fine which is why it leads me to think the cache system needs a look. I could hit pause and wait and video would clean up for a few seconds and go right back to stuttering, and clearing the cache seemed to help for a min or 2 on next playback try. It feels like either the cache system is not keeping up or the video playback code is hitting snags.Īs soon as I dropped back to Android 4.3 everything works beautifully. While it starts I can hear audio play smoothly until video kicks in. It appears in Android 4.4.x (in my testing definitely 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 with Google Nexus 7 2013-Flo and Samsung SGH-T989-Hercules ) which both have plenty of horsepower and made sure Wi-Fi was SOLID.īasically, anytime video starts to play it stutters horribly and is totally unwatchable. Just posting my findings verified with Google play review comments and Google searches…
