Hello Everyone,
A few days ago, I purchased the Redmi Note10s, which worked very fine in every aspect of the smartphone, but I've found issues of video rendering in apps like YouTube and others even in 1080P.
But The Strange thing is that while playing the same video on the youtube website using Firefox browser it renders perfectly and Amazing.
Below I've attached the screenshot of the same video playing in those two different apps.
YOUTUBE:
As You'll see below the SS of the YouTube Sample is Over sharped and isn't pleasing to the eyes
FIREFOX:
In the samples of Firefox, it renders the way we want with perfect colours and sharpening.
Is this problem with Software or GPU rendering, I don't know. If anyone having this phone please share your opinions or thoughts on this, and also let me know if anyone facing the same issue.
P.S: this is my first post on XDA community, hoping XDA community will help with this problem.
i have the same issue ... i sent it to mi store to check it up for a few days and they said it was alright ...
i also checked another note 10 s device in the store .. it has the same issue
the issue exist in youtube and google chrome ....
not sure if its a software issue that will be fixed or bad qc
since u posted 20 days ago .. did u do anything about this issue ?
I have come across the thing called video decoding, which is done mainly by GPU or processor. In our phone, a MediaTek processor is used which is using a technology called MiraVision to render the HDR video which causing the issue while playing video in lower quality like 480P. Some solutions I found on Reddit is saying to disable the hardware overlays to solve the issue, as this problem already faced by redmi note 8 users. But didn't solve our issue.
But idk why I'm used to this as video of 720P is much sharper and feels good now
i kinda like it although it might have to do something with miravision
best is to ask people using realme 7 and redmi note 8

It maybe an issue with MiUI's VP9 renderer (VP9 is a new codec developed by Google as a free alternative to HEVC ,or H265).
The codec is used by default by YouTube since it offers higher compression compared to previously used H264 codec (AVC).
The codec is all fine, and it is absolutely recommended to use it since it offers better clarity and saves data at the same time.
The problem is with MiUI's VP9 rendering algorithm which is over-sharpening the video. I suggest you to contact Xiaomi to fix the issue, and disable VP9 in YouTube Vanced for time being.
If the above solution didn't work, you may try changing the decoder in MX Player [Try all 3 decoders - HW, HW+, and SW.]
If you don't observe any changes, use the mx_aio custom codec.

Has this been fixed? is it even fixable via firmware updates?
As far as i know the Redmi Note 8 Pro has the same problem and still has it to this day
I was going to pick this phone up for my mother by this is definitely a turn off

change "ro.vendor.mtk_pq_support" from 2 to 0 (in Vendor/Build.prop)

I also have the same problem on JMGO O1 projector. Every time I play another video I have to go into settings and adjust the sharpness, from 0 to 1 then back to 0.

Alright, as promised, the camera patch for all ROMs using the grouper blobs.
First of all, a very big thanks to @Adam77Root, cause without him, none of this would have been possible.
This patch allows the camera to use the old nvomx, which fixes the encoder issues. However, this breaks the hardware decoder of the stock gallery. And using software decoder, lags are inevitable. But, you can still play HD videos using MX player.
To revert this, either restore a system backup, re-flash your ROM or flash the "Cam_revert_patch.zip" from the Attachment.
@ROM devs, please don't include this patch into your ROMs, but rather link to this thread. Not being able to use the read hw decoder can cause confusion and false bug reports, which is why I want people to read this first, before using the patch
Good idea!
tested the patch, works wonderfully. thank you!
As above working flawlessly as it should good work you are one step to make everything fully working

Can anyone test Skype videocall? Because for me it doesn't work, it gives me the same error as without the patch (green screen instead of the video). I can record videos though.
Also it works with the new omni buils (the ones reverted to old blobs) and all other official roms that use old blobs.
qr decoding/skype still doesn't work - this is just a fix for video recording
I would really like a revert patch, because I would like to install the patch when I want to take a video and simply uninstall it when I want to use the gallery.
I also add that this patch breaks Youtube app

Of course, it breaks almost all video decoding stuff, especially YT. This is why don't want devs to include it into ROMs.
MX player is more-less the only exception
in addition the recorded Videos are really "not good". The framerate is not stable. One video I recorded has 13 fps, the next 22 fps. Stable 25fps seems not possible.
So I would really appreciate a revert patch, dont want to flash all the rom again

Will do some troubleshooting tomorrow, gonna let you know if I find anything
Alright, as already mentioned HERE, we have a new way to switch between video playing and recording, a more "on the go" version
For details and how to use it, please take a look into the linked post
Now, some more explanation, the new patch "nameless_patchV2" is not only for nameless, but all ROMs built using p880-dev's android-4.4 branch, such as NamelessROM, Omni, Thinkingbridge, ...
Just flash the patch and you can switch blobs as explained.
The patch for CM11 (the cm-11.0 branch) is in the making
Hi guys, I'm sorry if this has been discussed in another thread, but I've been digging into this for about 2 hours now, and found nothing. I have a backup galaxy s advance, that I recently flashed with a cm 11 rom, and I'm not sure, but I'm under the impression that before with 4.1.2 stock, I could watch 480p videos on youtube, now the maximum resolution is 360p, and it's kinda pixelated. My question is....stock, is 360p the maximum resolution supported ? Also, is there any mod/fix whatever that can force youtube to go to 480p ? From my limited knowledge a 800x480 display should be 480p compatible, but please correct me if I'm wrong I've tried to modify the pixel density from build prop, but with no effect. Any help would be much appreciated
somewhere on the internet I read that Youtube does this restriction when you use HDMI connection to the screen.
I used to have very nice HD streaming for long time but after one of the app updates it is restricted, nothing else changed. I tried even to compare how it looks on my laptop. same video is showing full hd on laptop while on android it shows 360p max.
so by the experience I have it is definitely youtube app which restricts the options!!!!!!!
On stock (and stock based roms) you can watch 480p videos.
On KitKat you can't.
But you could try alternative apps like this one for 720p videos.
ALSO you can use this module in XPOSED called YOURTUBE you can change the resolution of the playing video ( i have not used it myself but the dev has mensioned it in module info)
Thanks for the suggestions guys
Is anyone facing problems with Stories videos? Whenever I try to upload a video, from my gallery, the video lags SO MUCH...
And if I try to record a video directly in Instagram app, the video lags EVEN MORE.
The experience with this social network, in a whole, is a little bit crappy, with the Mi A2...
It's so sad, because I really love this phone, specially the camera.
Well, is anyone facing the same problem? Is there any fix?
Thanks in advance! <3
Same problem, only with GBintsa stories work fine
Same problem, but only video story.
I also have this issue and always had it with every Android smartphone I ever owned. I investigated a bit on the internet and read somewhere that Instagram handles the Android camera API in a ****ty way. I'm no expert but seemingly the difference is that iPhone always uses the same API or just some different version because there are not many models on Android however there are probably more than 1000 different camera APIs because there is a much bigger variety of models. In short: Instagram on Android is not very well optimized.
I had the same issue with my MI A2 i fixed it buy installing a previous version of the instagram app I had the go like 10 vesrion before to get it right though and i lost the gif feature in messages but let's hope the update wont have the same problem.
Instagram beta works fine for me
Edit: NO IT'S NOT!!
Also recording from stock camera app in 1080p 60fps and then posting as story is fine
I also had this kind of issue, which is also present in older device like Redmi Note 4 in MIUI. I don't know what make its bugged tho

You have to think that you don't have an iphone, and you don't record smooth video on instagram app. Record on camera app and share it on your story.
Also photos you sent on instagram are in very tiny resolution (dm)

Yes I know...
I think this is a decoder related thing.. because screenshots look bad, but photos taken from camera looks good. Any video other than 1080p 60 fps from stock camera looks stuttering; but it also has very bad sound quality... That's really fuktup xiaomi..

The problem with the sound program will solve Cinema FV-5.
Go to the sound settings and put a tick on the Disable Audio Automatic gain Control (AGC). The sound starts being processed by the application's algorithms.

Instagram stories are smooth on my mi a2 running android P with the latest instagram update. Last time i was on android 8.1, the latest version of instagram has the choppy stories problem. Try updating to android P.
It's been months and still my stories are 15 fps.... what a joke...
This crap needs to get fixed. No matter which account I the video is choppy/laggy. If i shoot video inside the app the review looks good. once it uploads it's laggy. If I save the video to my phone... it's choppy. If i have a video already on my phone and I upload it to stories to the normal feed... it's choppy AF.
I'm on 8.1 oreo with RAW enabled. This suuuucks
Can someone confirm that the videos are better or smoother in Android P?

YESS this also happened to me, im using redmi note 5 rn and the current rom is in miui 10 global stable
The solution is to install the older version of instagram. I'm from Brazil and I found this solution, if you want to solve it and see everything fast again use this version here: 51.0.0.20.85
Search google to download ...
Do not upgrade to the newer version, if it does not come back all over again.
Guys! I found the solution!! Try to use the
H.265/HEVC codec.

How can i do this?
I made a short video to show the problem: youtube.com/watch?v=zHTiiJTL2JU
A lot of Xiaomi Smartphones have very bad performance when it comes to video encoding (e.g. Instagram Video Stories, Adobe Premiere).
Interesting fact: If you upload the exact same video file with different phones, the result is not the same.
Uploading Video Stories on Instagram with a Mi 9 ends up in a desaster. The input file with 30 fps will be shown with 15 fps for no reason.
The same file uploaded with a Huawei P9 Light works.
So what's the problem here? Instagram is using a bad encoding profile for Xiaomi Phones?
Who could fix this? Xiaomi? Google? Android? Instagram?
Any Ideas?
I tried to contact Xiaomi, but they're not interested in fixing this problem.
For instagram users, Xiaomi Phones are not useable right now :-/

Hm :-/ It's a brand new smartphone. Always a bad feeling flashing it.
What I've seen so far, many things don't work with GSI Rom.
But thanks for your quick reply
The only thing that doesn't work on GSI at the moment is FP on always on display, and that it's a little bit less reliable in my opinion.
By the way, it might just be a problem with media profiles

FP always on is not important to me.
Sorry I'm a noob! But, there is no chance to change "media profiles" with Xiaoimi stock Rom, right?
Anyways, wich ROM exactly could you recommend? Maybe I'll give it a try.

Try using the H.265 video encoder with the stock camera app and then upload to Instagram. This fixed the problem for me and I am in the latest Xiaomi.eu rom.
Hi,
When I record a video (with stock camera app) in 4k that is longer than a minute in the photos app it laggs (1-4 fps), the sound is playing normally. When I try to play a 30 sec 4k video it runs smoothly. In other resolution everything is fine.
But, when I play that video in an other app (like Filemanager's built in video player) it is fine.
I deleted app data, and cache, still doesn't work.
I also tried to record a 4k 1 minute long video, wich is about 300MB, then I recorded a 10 minute video in FullHd wich is 1.6 GB, the FullHd video runs smoothly, so I don't think it is a problem with size. What could be the problem?
Same here brother. After i stabilized the video the vudeo become choppy. Or if I see recorded 4k video the video stuck at some piont and show like slidesjow of photos.
For the last 2 days, that is what i am frustratingly suffering. It was not sth existing a few days ago. I was wondering what caused this and saw your post. Appreciate all kinds of recommendations.
If anyone have a solution please let me know, I still have this problem. After June update all of my 4k videos are broken and I can't play them in Google photos.
Are you sure it happens only with videos longer than 1 min? I have the same problem but it's random.
Sometimes videos longer than 1 or 2 minutes play OK, sometimes very short videos lag.
Haven't tried less than 4k, though.
Super annoying - using VLC now.

Hi, so I tried a few things, and it works.
Disable the app. If it asks to replace the app with the factory version click "ok". After that, enable the app, and DON'T update it, even if it asks to.
This worked for me, no problem at all, the 4k works, the slowmotion videos can be played without stopping too.
@Thuyamo so you lost the improved interface, dark mode and all that?
I am just afraid it will cause sync problems or something.

I'm currently on version 4.11, the newest in play store is 4.19 so it's not that old. For me this downgrade didn't cause any sync problem. Since the screen is so dim I don't want to make it harder to see stuff on my phone outside the house?, so I don't use dark mode at all. But yes, I lost the dark mode feature. The improved interface is there, I didn't lose it.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

(Because, I mean, who in their right mind uses Google-anything. Just joking, but srsly.)
Ok, here is an update on ticket [9-1423000026724] with Google support.
Long story short, they said Google Photos cannot play 4k videos.
So I said that was not true and sent them screenshots of Photos running on an iPhone and on a Motorola Android phone, including the information pop-up that shows the video resolution.
They replied they did all they could and closed the case.
I am so dissapointed with their service. I did not expect a quick solution, but I thought they would acknowledge the bug.
What do we do now? I think opening more tickets with them is all we can do. Hope you guys can help me on that.
