Hi,
Ive tried the one from the amazon store and it fails to load any videos, sames goes with the xbmc youtube plugin. Not sure why (Rooted / UK)
Can anyone recommend me one that works?
Thanks
The one from XBMC has worked fine for me.
Both working here.
I had to uninstall the Google Play's YouTube app because of terrible stutter and server failure playback issues caused by an update.
Get the Youtube HD Mod on XDA in a thread,it plays fine and has a noticably MUCH smoother framerate..
And best of all...no rooting required!

This is a modded YouTube version with an option to download videos as mp4 and mp3. https://mega.co.nz/#!h8lARAKb!q770cVQonN8BrQHaZEBM_2ab6U6HX4R3MLXMpPNDb_M

Take note that all downloads from "mega" take up extra space in browser data for some stupid reason.
So,if you download a 1MB file,you will take an extra 1MB of precious space because of a file in the web browser's data folders.
And if you get a 271MB file from there,expect a 271MB increase in web browser data.
I suggest getting a barely used browser just for that site so you can delete the data whenever it gets excessively big.
appreciate it but i tried the above and it doesnt work too well with the AFTV controller. In fact cant get anything to play

Hey guys,
I recently bought my HOX and I love it !!
I have one little question. I Own a iconiaTab A510 which is on tegra3 and ICS as well. When i try to play avi file (3-10Mo) from dropbox app on my tab they just play fine. But on my HOX it just doesn't work. I tried mxplayer, vlc, vplayer but none of them worked ! Do you have any idea why ??
dropbox app v 2.1.10 on both
I don't think it's related to the Dropbox app, since once the file is downloaded, it's job is done and another app is called to handle the file. What software are you using? MX Player works flawlessly here, both with SD and HD videos.
Hi,
With latest dropbox app, you don't need to download files anymore, you can play them in streaming. If I download my video, you're right, mxplayer works fine. Unless the streaming feature only works on tablet...

Weird issue. I've tried everything to no avail.
The same avi files stream fine from my pc using plex.

I will try to upload a video and stream it, though my Dropbox always uploads unbelievably slow, so it might take a while...
EDIT: I have tried several mp4, 3gp and avi files, and all streamed well (a bit slowly, but I could get the to play after a bit of buffering) except for the avi ones. I'm pretty sure it's because of the dropbox app, because if you click Export -> Save to SD Card and play it from there it works just fine. I also have a 720p mkv file uploading now, but I couldn't find a smaller one around, so it might take a while, and I expect the result is just as it is with the avi file. I'll update if I find anything more.
EDIT 2: Just as I thought, the mkv file refuses to stream, but will play just fine if downloaded first. So it looks like you'll have to store your videos locally while you watch them, or find some other way of streaming them
Ok, you're right...if you do export>mxplayer it works after a bit of buffering...but if you just click on your video and select mxplayer, it doesn't play...which is weird because my A510 does play the video this way without buffering...anyway thanks for your help :thumbup:

I have looked around, and can't find any information in threads that are not at least a year old. I use airplayit on my ipad to stream videos stored on my desktop to the tablet and it works fairly well. However, their android app crashes on my phone when I try to add a computer for it to stream from. I also tried an app called skifta from the play store, however it crashes when I open it. I am trying to find, Ideally, one program that will work for both my ipad and my phone, but if that is not possible, just a good one for my phone would suffice.
Any ideas?
I like BS player. It has a LAN mode that you can use to stream media. It so far Plays all of my .mkv files without stutters.
I use Plex media server

Somewhat on this same note...Do any of you use p2p4u.net for streaming sports? If so, have you been able to use it on your E4GT?

This seems to be exactly what I was looking for. 5 bucks is the most I've paid for an android app, but I just might have to do it.
I for one would love to see Google do for video files what they did for music (Google Play Music). Streaming videos via your pc to phone while on the same network is a nice feature but having it in the cloud would be a plus.
I use bs player as a player, but have set up an ftp server on my home pc and navigate to it through es file explorer.

Okay in the process of trying to find an app that could stream video files as well as music & document files I came across an app called ZumoCast. This app is specifically made to run on certain Motorola devices but doing some searches here on XDA I found a patched version, installed it on my phone and thus far it works flawlessly (well almost), no widget support & album art doesn't always show up.
I haven't tried it while I'm away from home so I can't really tell you how well things would stream outside the network but in house it works great.
Attached you will find the apk & here is the link to the windows install file (sorry iOS users no support for you guys at this time)
Enjoy

Thanks. I'll have to give this a try. I was getting weird errors with plex and it didn't want to play back most of my video files for some reason
I use ES file explorer to access all my files: system, network, ftp, and cloud. They all stream flawlessly and I just play them on DICE player. Love the new popup player.
I have my new GS3 and i want to download and save youtube videos any apps that can you recommend to me.

Follow-up Question: Download Resolution
As a follow-up question on Tubemate:
I've been using Tubemate for about 5 months now and absolutely love it. One thing I've noticed, though, is that sometimes when I download a video at full resolution, it doesn't play very well in any video player I have tried (stock TW Video Player, MXPlayer, VLC). The video will play for a certain length (sometimes 1/2 the video, sometimes 3/4 of it) and the video will freeze (sound continues) and then the video will restart from the beginning. If I skip ahead of the "freeze point" the video continues fine.
I know that Tubemate downloads the files in sections and stitches it together (think of old-school r.00 and r.01 files), so it sounds like the problem is that the particular section the "freeze point" is in was corrupt. If I download the video in a different format (or redownload it at the original resolution) it sometimes works better.
I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with Tubemate downloads.

I've had this issue before.. It happens. Sometimes I go to the download folder and make sure its really at a 100%. But I figure its the video codecs on the phone.. sometimes they just hitch a part and its all downhill from there. But tubemate is by far the best. not only do you not have to deal with ads, it gives you options to select which video size you want which is always a plus

I believe its because our phones are 1280x720 and if you download at 1920x1080 then your phone can't play it cause it can't handle it. Its the same for me. As for everyone else.

Hi,
I am having serious issues playing videos on the device. The stock players (photos and movies apps) won't play anything I get through whatsapp (mostly sent from iOS devices), many vids from YouTube, nor the sample videos which were pre-loaded on the phone (?!?).
I downloaded MxPayer and VLC, which mostly solved the problem, but I'm still having problems with the YouTube app. In case it helps, here is an example of a video I can't watch (my one-year old's favorite): http://youtu.be/VMl0GbiVEyA.
The phone is brand new, arrived 4 days ago. I'm running the latest firmware (Kit Kat, build 14.4.A.0.108), which the phone prompted me to install. It is not rooted and I hope to keep it that way, at least for a while.
Any ideas? Is anybody else experiencing this?
Thanks!

I use vlc as only videoplayer (deleted all others), vlc plas all videos for me. The video you mentioned I can't see here in Germany due to copyright issues.
Thanks, but what about YouTube? How do you force the YouTube app to use VLC as the default player?

i use firefox as browser and use youtube from there. I don't use the the you tube app.
Ah, ok. Well, if anybody has a solution, that would be great. I really like using the app, would be a shame to have to use the browser.
I'd do full wipe of the Phone and start over by flashing a ftf. Z1 Compact Resource Thread -|-Rooting-BL Unlocking-Firmware & More...
Thanks, but as I said, not rooted, and trying ypto avoid going down the road of endless tweaking and customization.
I downloaded a few alternative YouTube players, and they all work fine. I'll choose one and see how it goes. Want to know if I can go " average Joe stock" user this time around.

You don't need to be rooted to flash your Phone, the flashtool would be pointless otherwise. Install the flashtool, flash a ftf, done, it's as simple as that.
I know there are several threads and old blog posts from previous years about the same topic but most of the apps are completely outdated and/or no longer working. I used to use Vidmate to download youtube videos but after I switched to Note 10+ for some reason is not working, I just no longer see the download button. I tried uninstalling and installing again, installing older versions, etc. and it's not working. So wanted to see if there is anything better in 2019 but all I can find is very old threads with the same tubemate, instube, snaptube, keepvid, videoder, vidmate, etc. that they all barely work.
What app do you use now to download YouTube videos? Another good alternative is adding ss on the youtube link between the dot and the "y" from youtube, the downloads are fast but very annoying copying each link, typing the ss, moving the cursor, etc.
Is there anything more functional now in 2019? Ideally I would love an app that would let you login and download playlist of several videos like 20 videos at a time. Any suggestions?
In all honesty, Tubemate still works fine... I'm using version 3.2.8...
Never had an issue with it...
A BIG BIG thank you to BrownBoy8872 who suggested Ymusic on reddit, that was EXACTLY what I was looking for:
Can login into my YouTube account
Can download full playlist and select resolution beforehand for all videos
Downloads are extremely fast just downloaded a playlists of 62 videos 720p in no time, everything downloads in seconds while other apps take minutes
Ads, but not adware like vidmate that keeps sending intrusive notifications if you don't force close/greenify it it after use
Excellent clean design, it even has the option to remove ads and support the developer which I just did
This really feels like an Android Pie/Android 10 app while all other apps to download videos feel like 1998 symbian apps lol

yes I am able to download the videos but the app is not a video player you have to selecf the right format while downloading and then I use MX Player Pro to reproduce them
Alright the dev reached out to me. At the top right next to the sleep timer there is a video camera icon. You tap this to enable video. I thought this was for uploading video like it is on the YouTube and vanced apps. I left it grayed out and this is why i didnt see video, even after I downloaded the video only links.
Anyway all sorted out.
