Newpipe is incredible slow under Chrome OS (Chromebook) #7459
Comments
Looks like a GPU or network problem. |
My i5-Chromebook runs lighting fast and smooth as OTHER instlalled Android apps do. Same with network connection (260 Mbps Internet download/ 110 Mbps upload). Video playback via directly Youtube.com runs also smooth as butter. Newpipe is the only application that runs with a "handbrake": With (only) Newpipe getting search results and video thumbnails etc. is slow with 20 - 40 seconds video/preview/search result ... loading time |
Ok some things that might help:

The problems persist after uninstalling and reinstalling Newpipe. Reinstalling does not help
There are no special Android network settings at Chromebook and other Android Apps are (net-)working fine and smooth. Even Newpipe itself has fast download speed when I use it Video/Audio-file-download functionality: downloading a Youtube-Video via Newpipe as MPEG-4 720p with ~50MB size is done within about 5 seconds). BUT every other Newipipe action is slow when it hast to show a listing (i.e. listing of a video search result OR a list of all videos of single YT-channel) and it also needs more than 20 seconds every time when it has to start simple YT-video-playback and even for showing YT-Video-informations like channel descriptions and user comments etc.
I would really like to install a Newpipe-Debug-APK and then send debug informations but I could not find any debug-APK at the above URL nor any where else. |
From our PR template: APK testing The APK can be found by going to the "Checks" tab below the title. On the left pane, click on "CI", scroll down to "artifacts" and click "app" to download the zip file which contains the debug APK of this PR. Note: You have to be logged in to see the artifact. |

Use logcat which is shipped with ADB There are a bunch of manuals available online (searching for |
There was some logging, see the following (zipped) *.hprof file and screenshot: Is this helpfull? |
TL;DR These are not logs but that's a HeapDump file in that zip. So at first I think that RAM usage of NewPipe is not related to the fact that it is slow. At least in that use-case so far and without logs.
Please send in the logs (when it's slow). |
I would really like to do that. But for me as non-developer installing a debuging environment as decribed above is too complicated for me and I don't have the knowlegde for doing it. If there is anything else/ less complicated I can do to support narrowing down the cause of my Newpipe-handbrake, then please let me know. |
When using Newpipe at my Android capable Chromebook (running Chrome OS 96 / 97, it is a ligning fast Acer Spin 713-2W with i5-CPU) it needs at least 20 seconds to show any content and also to start video playback.
This problem exists since about 3 oder 2 month and neithter updating Chromebook (started with Chrome OS 95) nor updating Newpipe had changed this issue.
I do not have this issue with all my othe Android capable devices (Newpipe 0.21.13 runs smooth at alls my other Android devices, they all using exactly the same internet connection as my Chromebook. All other Android Apps and even runnijng Youtube directly is running fine at my Chromebook
