[Q] YouTube and other videos error - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have searched for a cause of this but so far have not found anything.
I, along with 2 others I know that have a Droid Incredible, am constantly getting the "Sorry this video cannot be played" error with YouTube. 2 of the phones are stock 2.2 and 1 has a SkyRaider-Sense rom.
Is there an issue with youtube on the Dinc? Is there a way to fix this?

Are you guys getting it with every video, or just on a few that will never play? I know there are some that have an issue with not being able to be viewed on a "mobile device".

YouTube viewing problem

Hi all,
I'm getting an error message while watching videos on the YouTube app (any version).
The error message appears around the middle or last half of the video.
It says something like : "a playing error occurred. Touch to try again." (Translated from french ).
I'm running CM 6.1.1 but got the same problem with CM 7.0 Rc1 or gingervillain gb port.
Is it a cache size issue ?
Thanks for your help.

i sometimes get this error when watching videos (seems to be quite randomly, though), but they work after a refresh (or, at least, i can view past the error until i have to refresh again). but i think it has something to to with the data connection, since i've noticed resetting my wifi / 3G connection helps avoid this error for a while. might have something to do with the radio?
Thanks.
When I get this error message and refresh, the video starts at the beginning again! I never can see the end of the video.
I'm using radio 5.14.05.17
Do you think I should downgrade? Which one is the best radio?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
i really don't know very much about radios, since i've never had problems with the one i'm using (5.09.05.30), thus i haven't had the need to flash another. from what i've read, radios provide different experiences on different handsets in various places, so the only one who can tell which exacly is the best is you. i suggest you read through the thread of the rom you are using and find a couple radios of which people say good things from their own experience and try to see which performs better on your phone.
please take care when flashing a radio, because a bad flash can really brick your device. again, i don't know much about radios and flashing them, but a lot of people say the best (and safest) way to do it is through fastboot. maybe you should read around on how to do it, and make sure the file you download is not corrupted (do an md5 checksum if possible), suits your rom and device and there are people who say they've been successfully using it. good luck!
Hi there, i had the same problem. It was a kind embarrising cause all i have to do was search youtube on market and update, cause that was not automatickly update...
@KasperBang did this problem stop for you when you did the update? i've always used the most recent version and still had errors from time to time

Video and youtube will not play

I am on GB27 and having a problem with video play back. Ive actually had this problem with several roms; most notably the GB08 etc. After I install the rom i can play videos from ESPN etc for a few days and even youtube. However after about a week I can no longer do so. When I try to play videos i get a, "playback not supported" error and youtube will give me a "connection to server lost" error. However they both work on WIFI. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Is this a rom issue? Ive tried to google an answer but have been unsuccessful.
Thanks

Problem uploading videos on Instagram

My wife has a galaxy note 2 and is very happy with it, especially since she installed CyanogenMod since it's a lot smoother. But she is thinking about changing smartphone because she needs Instagram for her work and she can't upload videos "upload failed" is what she gets every time. The problem occurs since the stock rom, tried factory reset, tried the beta app, nothing works. I researched and found no solution yet, can someone please help us?
Cheers
