YouTube 2.0 introduced quite severe playback issues for high frame rate video. 60p video suffered from severe stuttering on Sony ATV starting at Full HD resolution already while YouTube 1.x played it buttery smooth up to 4K at much lower CPU usage. In YouTube 2.03.04, Google now restricts resolution of such video to 720p. That's how Google fixes issues. A good example of how significant this Android TV platform really is.

CPU usage is down quite a bit. Playback only exhibits occasional stutters.
How is it with cast HDR content? Is this still a stutter fest? I need to try this version.
The Chromecast player unfortunately is still bad, like previous YouTube 2.0 versions. Google should apply recent YouTube patches also there...
