Has anyone found a good way of watching YouTube videos?
I got this Tablet in hopes of being able to watch video clips, and not have to use my laptop as much.
Trying to watch videos on this device is horrible.
It's always buffering while trying to watch YouTube clips, using the YouTube app.
It does a slighter better job watching them from the Skyfire browser.
I can watch YouTube videos over WiFi using my phone with no problem.
No such luck on the Samsung Tab 10.1

One of my test videos i use is Bearded Dragon playing Ant Crusher.
Seems that video did buffer several times while playing. Other videos also do buffer several times.
Interesting.
Played the same video over WiFi using my Samsung Epic Touch with no buffering.
 
I noticed the HD in the lower left corner of videos I was streaming.
By unchecking it, I no longer had buffer issues, but I also had to view them at a much lower resolution in the process.

Yes, download Dolphin for Pad ( https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dolphin.browser.pad&hl=en ) . Then you can just go to youtube.com in that browser (it even has tabs) and watch via Flash. It works perfectly with zero lag. And you can even press the "full screen" button and it plays perfectly that way too!
 
I just tested using YouTube app, stock browser and Dolphin HD, all 3 worked flawlessly for me, in high def as well.
