Hello everyone...
I have ecountered the following annoying problem:
When I download a large file, for example a video, and I want to watch another video while downloading, I get a laggy/choppy playback (every 2 secconds or so there is a small pause). Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? I already tried placing .nomedia files into the download directiory, but that didn't fix it.

Phone: GT-N7100 (Galaxy Note 2, rooted with Aragorn exploit)

If you need more information, feel free to ask.
Please help!

What kind of SD card do you have. What class is it?

I have a G.Skill 32gb class 10 and I don't have that problem.

Its a 32 gb class 4. But its slowness should not be the reason, as I download stuff to the internal storage and view the videos from the external...

So when it's not a really big file, it's fine? This only happens with big files?

Also what video player are you using, stock or something else?

Maybe you could try downloading videos to you're exsd card.

This is the first time I've heard of this issue.

Small files dont take long to download, so I dont have that problem. Also, I forgot to mention that I am downloading to the internal memory and watching from the external. Am I really the only one who has this problem? Wth!

I guess you are. Maybe just for the hell of it. Try getting a class 10 micro SD and see if that fixes it.

Also make sure you don't have any power saving on or power saving software on.

I hope you get it fixed.
