Help with viewing Youtube and Jogger

I am having trouble mapping the t-zone key to do something other than take me to t-zone, for example I would like for it to open iexplorer. I tried using info from a threads I search with no luck. Also, I have me trying to view youtube and have used several apps from various threads such as Youtube player, kinomaplayer, 10live, and tmpcp player. Each time I either get file now support or a file error. I am using php registry and was able to change volume slider to use it to scroll. Phone is using WM6.

Strange, I have wm6 on one of my Dash/Excalibur and I'm watching YouTube Videos with my TCPMP player, KinomaFreePlayer{The Best} and the new RTSP video player. It works like a charm with YouTube. Now it's mighty strange that it will not work like a charm on your mobile device, by the way, the YOUTUBE player is for pocketPC devices ONLY, it tells you that in the thread.............!

I cant find a place where I can download rtsp player. The one I download is just a play.dmg.

I Will Help You!

In my opinion, the best choice to watch youtube videos in Excalibur is COREPLAYER.

Mobile Internet
Since the Excalibur doesn't support 3G, it is likely that YouTube will only reliably work over WiFi, because GPRS is too slow to stream the videos.

hi, i recently installed opera mobile 10 and core player to my p51, could any one tell me how to make opera to play youtube (or any other websites if able) videos with core player, my windows IE browser plays youtube videos with core player, but that browser sux bc its slow and it sux

Can you try skyfire, it's a good browser with native support for flash, but without wifi is too slow.
For the download search it with google, it's freeware

unfortunately it is true, for this reason I use it only when I need flash support.

if one is interested only in youtube, you can use the specific application released by Google

Why can't we watch youtube videos in the browser?!

If you go to a website with an embedded youtube video, the video won't show up unless you have flash lite turned on, which is awful quality.
Now afaik on other android phones, and indeed the iphone, if you go to a website with embedded youtube videos they show up in h.264 format, without the need for flash. Why has HTC disabled this? (or am I missing something)

Let me try this again in a while (on YouTube) but I have definitely watched flash vids within the browser many times (not on YouTube that I recall though). Poor quality at best, very grainy.
I haven't tried playing YouTube directly within the browser to date simply because I like it opening in the YouTube app better (I get the option to choose this).

you're missing something.
most phones get redirected to m.youtube.com
some sites are still using flash 9, which flashlite can play.
if a site is using flash 10, then you're ****ed because flash 10 is only in beta and only on 2.2

It's probably the Flash Lite plugin and the normal Youtube plugin (like on other Android phones) don't work well together and HTC disabled the normal plugin.
You probably have to find a way to remove Flash Lite completely.
Or maybe you wait until there's a Froyo ROM available within a few days/weeks or so and flash this, to get the full Flash 10.1, which should work much better than Flash Lite.

I'm assuming the normal plugin is where it redirects YouTube URLs to the YouTube app? Because that's the most frustrating part about this flaw!

Yes normal is the redirection to the Youtube app.

It sounds like even with flash 10.1 you can only get to watch the h.264 version if you load that flash video, then double tap on it to bring up the youtube player.
I would prefer it to load the h.264 video by default, because it's always going to perform better than flash, no matter how hard adobe tries.

YouTube embedded vids are an exception for me in so far as not playing embedded, many other site vids are doing so in decent quality (as relative as that is). Indeed, tricking the browser and YouTube to think it's a Desktop or iPhone accessing it is simple as well as showing the Desktop view, but then, you'll just see a black area where the vid would be with a message by shockwave that "this type of content is not supported". It won't play which is odd for me due to other site vids at higher quality that do play.

Doing such a tap provokes the browser to give me the option of either playing the vid using the YouTube app or using HTC Flash app.

Just use a different browser (Dolphin for example). The default browser (htc modified) does not allow it.

Suggestion:
Go to www.youtube.com/html5 and signup.
Make sure you're signed in on youtube.com on your mobile.
Try it now.

I use Xscope and Dolphin... they don't allow such embedded video through browser viewing on YouTube.

I could, but I don't really want to install another browser just to watch YouTube videos when I happen to come across one.

I think by loading skyfire is the only way you could view most videos in the way in which you say. But also the iphone cannot load videos from within its browser, only from its dedicated you tube player, and that has restrictions like nit being able to download to twitter or facebook etc. Some people are saying though that skyfire doesnt work fire them. Works a treat for me and plays 90 percent of videos that I stumble across.

You can on the iPhone, the videos show u exactly where thy are embedded, nd then you tap them and they play.
Its stupid because so many websites use h.264 video now, which android does support, yet we can't watch them.

Not sure I follow.
I go to YouTube (the proper site) on the HTC browser, I tap on a video, it loads and plays. What am I doing right?

It is that simple actually.
The thing is videos are played in a Flash player, instead of the Youtube app. Some people want to have it play in the Youtube app.

The issue here is samac92 wanting YouTube videos to play embedded in the browser like his iPhone did, without using flash, which they don't. I have no issue with the default actions.

Embedded in the browser? The iPhone can't do that.
You can change the Youtube site to see the HTML5 version. You can do that on the Desire, I guess you can also do it on the iPhone. But that's with the Youtube site itself.

What exactly changes if using HTML5 in the context of the video itself?
The stock vids the Flash app plays on YouTube are in FLV mostly, right? But when you download those vids, it offers the H.264 MP4 files. Does HTML5 allow the better H.264 MP4 vid file to be played in the YouTube app through streaming?

The first YouTube download tool for windows phone 7

I find a youtube tool for windows phone 7. It is called 'SuperTube'. It can let you browse High Definition (720P, 360P) and download the videos from YouTube
Here is the link to download the trial version.

Thanks! Super app, it even has 720p videos!

Thank you so much for this one! Sweet!

Oh such a pity I can't buy apps.

if you do not have a credit card check: ht tp://ww w.mywirecard.co m/pl/index.html

The Trial is full featured, and has ads only in the menu (not in the videos), but you can download and keep only 3 videos per day, so no restrictions on the streaming.
For those wondering, the app uses the 360P and 720P MP4s used by Youtube, downloads them, and plays using the phone codecs directly (although the player has a different UI).
This is similar to, say KeepVid or KeepTube in its extraction of Youtube videos.
The quality was awesome. The UI of the app, not so much.

Double Posted for some reason. :/

As far as I know, there are NO limitations on viewing videos. But if you want to actually keep it, then there are 3...per day. Need to confirm this though for myself.

nope its not 3 per day, it just state I reached my download limit for trial...

I downloaded this, good find, thanks

It's very good, but would be awesome if it linked into your Zune library (i.e. the videos downloaded appeared in Videos), but I'm not sure if that's possible or not...

The trial is 3 vids total. Figured I'd better buy it in case it gets pulled from the Marketplace

So now that we have HTML5

What can we do with it?
Places like Vimeo won't let you see html5 video without detecting a specific browser. I believe youtube works the same way.
It seems like there is plenty of html5 content, but that it doesn't show if it doesn't recognize the browser.

what can we do more with html5? does it more faster?

indeed I also tried it on YouTube but it defaults back to the mobile website. Html 5 is quite useless now for the most popular video websites it seems.

you also tried changing the ie9 to "desktop"?

I totally forgot about that setting.
I changed it to desktop, enabled HTML5 on YouTube, and guess what, it started working just fine.
Update: I now realize that it doesn't work on all the YouTube videos, as I am guessing only a portion of them playback in HTML5. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it told me I needed Flash. Go figure.
