Due to CM11 bugs. Latest version of youtube is not working properly (can't play a video).
So, what is the best youtube version for CM11 user??
I considered as ogyoutube since it have a number of feature. But its rather old for our new cm11. Latest ogyoutube still unable to log in. And that is not our choice.
So is there anyother alternative? Maybe official one that still working with our devices, or anyother youtube apps replacement.
Thanks.
Hd YouTube..
5.3.32 working fine for me.
5.3.32 work good.
Even though the video seem a little pixelated.
Og youtubev6 oftenly crashing with cm11.
Does anyone have the same problem with me?
Have any suggestion to fix the crash?
So I've recently tried upgrading from CM12 to a couple of different ROMS based on CM13 (Tamasek and Purity). With either rom I find that when I try to watch purchased Youtube videos I get an error of "This video is not playable on this device". I posted a message here as well as contacted google support and got some interesting feedback. In short Google stated that cyanogenmod stopped supporting DRM with CM13 and as such CM13 and CM14 will not play purchased videos from youtube or any other service.
My question is this. As being able to play back my purchased videos is somewhat a core feature that I need is there a Marshmallow rom out there that supports this type of playback, or am I SOL? From here on out when I want a new version of android I'll need to buy a new device?
Hi i just bought the Mediapad M2 10.0 Premium edition. (with 64gb and 3g ram)
i did install all updates and apps as usual. But whatever i do i cannot get the youtube app to show me the option for 1080p60 .
I can play it in the browser in 1080p60 and it doesnt even break a sweat. So the device is capable of doing it.
I also followed this https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/youtube/SnUZLroxZOM
instructions to no avail.
Any ideas? do you have issues with this?
anyone? guys? can someone check and report please i really have to know so i can return the device if necessary
HI just got Mix 2 and getting through a few bugs with using Chinese ROM in US. Got Netflix to work by side loading older April version. Guess that is from Netflix update that does not allow unlocked phones...? Anyway I can't get Hulu to play videos. The app opens just fine but when you select a video to play it throws the error "Error code : 3(-996)". Google was no help so asking you MIX 2 guys if you have had success playing Hulu vids, especially in the US. Thanks all!
Hey all have a og pixel XL it's unlocked and rooted either stock kernel December update (8.1) I use vlc at work to watch and listen to downloaded videos I've been using it for months now with no issues. Now I recently noticed that all my videos stutter and hitch . I though it was because I went for 8.0 to 8.1 so I went back and it was still happening (even though in the past I had no issues)
Only way I can fix this is to disable hardware acceleration in vlc settings. But doing thumis makes my device warm and sucks battery (being that it's decoding HD video via software) this is driving me nuts. How can I fix this?
I downloaded the device driver binaries from Google but no idea how to install it. I though I could make sure they are all up to date but not sure how to go about that.

Has VLC been updated recently? it sounds like if it's happening on 8.0 and 8.1 and wasn't happening before ... it's likely an issue with the app itself and not the OS.

No, do NOT do that. that's not what those drivers are for - they are for developers, not end-users.
your firmware contains the drivers that you should be using / built for your firmware.

i could not find a past version of the app. well i did on apkmirror but the only non beta past app was from nov 28th i was looking for one from like october but only found beta versions. tried one of them. still doing it. i think it has something to do with 8.1. i would do a back up with twrp and just do a fresh install of 8.0 and see if it happens again but last time i tried making a twrp back up restoring from it failed.
You can download the older builds from the vlc website:

well, I did just try vlc. not sure what u are watching, but I used a couple 4k videos on my phone and 4k YouTube videos.... no issues. - but that may not be an best test; I'm not using the stock kernel...
I'd see if u can get someone who isn't running a non-stock setup to reproduce it....? maybe someone will read this and give it a test too...

i think i found the issue. i use the app arktube to download youtube videos the night before i go into work so i can listen and watch while on shift. in the app there is a setting to allow to download VP9 version of videos and i had it selected for some reason. those videos are the ones that are stuttering unless i disable hardware acceleration.
would you be able to test to see if VP9 content stutters on your pixel? the video i had was 2560x1440P VP9 youtube video here is the video i downloaded https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33OZFYN_cQw&index=22&list=PL8mG-RkN2uTyuEutQa79RZ0Q5u5gteUci
i just got done flashing 7.1.2 and 8.0 with different versions of VLC each and still had the issues so i guess its because of VP9. which makes no sense being that i can view it fine from the youtube app at that setting but cant if i download it and play it via vlc?
