I was trying to open with Opera, IE, WMP. Don't really know which application I need to watch it...I believe there is a simple answer for the question. But, I just don't know it...
So, no1 knows?

Have you read this?
it seems that all the solutions there are for downloading, converting and then watching. But I need it to work on-fly, without downloading, the way we watch it on our PCs.
Now Windows Mobile Phones Can, so why can't we?
I know I'm getting sick of seeing those stupid Verizon adds for the EnV that shows the huge YouTube logo on the screen, and wondering why my WM phone can't. I know my phone can do hundreds, if not thousands of things, that the EnV can't, but as long as there is ONE thing that a non WM phone can do that mine can't, I feel like less of a man. Where do I sign up mfrazz's 12 step program?
and is there any way to watch p2p tv on ppc like on pc?

why it keeps asking for java or flashplayer (under wm6)?
does anyone know how to format the window so that I can watch the whole video (on youtube) using Opera?
Orb Lets You Play YouTube on Your PPC
I use a program called Orb to play YouTube on my PPC. It loads on your home PC, then you use any PPC browser to access it. It's pretty dang sweet. I have had hardly any problems with it.
orb.com
Well, there are a lot of ways to watch you tube video offline on your PPC. For example, you can just download a youtube video using youtube grabber on your PC then convert it to avi using some endcoder, and then watch it with TCMP or Core PLayer.
However, the main point of the thread is to get a way of watching youtube video on-fly being online with you PPC.
So, far the best way of doing that is using new Opera. However, it's not a perfect way
orb is the way to go. orb does it on the fly also. check it out.

It really is. The only problem I found about it is that the PC must always run the application and be online to be able to watch video from PPC, which is sometimes a problem for me. The rest is awsome.
the other nice thing is you can also view your webcam anytime also. I use it for sucurity purposes . very nice feature.

I think downloads are the only way to watch you tube videos. Try this site: mymobileclips.com, free registration, specify the format you want your videos, and you can get Google, Myspace, Ifilm, Dailymotion, Break, Metacafe, too.
I personally believe ORB is by fair the best thing to cross streaming\PPC lines...I have absolutely no problem watching youtube on my PPC using orb, and talk about an iPhone?? Who needs that when you have an 250 gig hdd with movies, music, pictures, and then are able to watch your local cable service thats at home while your out and about on a lunch break, and then to be able to access your PC and browse and download files from anywhere............ORB IS GOD when it comes to media and mobile devices....not to mention to gain access on my xbox 360 using orb as well without switching my external from device to device, and not using the lame media center....orbs great....just thought id mention it.

I've been trying orb and im a bit new to it. But from my understanding, orb will only work if you pre-selected the videos on your PC first right?
Is there any way to watch ANY youtube video? For example if you searched for one and want to watch it, you cant use the standard browser to see it. How does orb come into play for watching videos on demand? Will it only allow us to see videos that we have pre-added on our pc with the orb plugin?

Orb defines videos, pics, audio, files, etc defined in a specifc folder....when you setup orb it then scans the folders to save the content locations onto the orb server, so what ever you put in a specified folder, orb will pull it in for you.
With youtube, just download the plugin on orbs website for IE, install.....then login into orb on your ppc.....go to videos....then it comes up with an search for youtube....google...yahoo...etc, type in what you want to search, it then show it infront of you, click what you want to watch, then click play stream.
No pre-added video for youtube, just an search as if you were at your desktop.
Anyone know how to watch AOL videos on Windows Mobile? They don't play on the Core Player with the standard codecs for YouTube, nor do they work on VTap. AOL says their videos are played in the Flash 9 format. Installed Flash Player 7 for Pocket PC from the Adobe site, but that doesn't work on AOL--I still get a message saying Flash 8 is required for full-length videos. Is anything available for PocketPCs that will work?
I've searched and found that there's something called Flash Lite 3.0 coming earlier next year, but 2.0 is supposedly based on Flash Player 7 so I haven't bothered to try that yet.
BTW, I was very surprised and pleased to find out that AOL Videos have all the episodes of some great classics, like Bullwinkle, Mr. Peabody and Sherman, etc. They play fine on my laptop.
Video Search - Bullwinkle - AOL Video
Thanks in Advance!
Orb is a media sharing app that you install on home pc(or where the media is that you want to share) very easy setup. works on phone, ps3, laptops, or anything that has internet connection. It converts on the fly so you dont have to convert media. there is a login in screen when trying to acess(your media). Its a cool app that lets me take my 50 gigs of music, 10 gigs of video anwhere(through internet) without having in store on device
Xda and everyone here has been a great, you guys helped a noob figure everything needed to flash, and every way to unbrick my phone in under a week.
And thats includes figuring out this webpage, xda is like family now. THANKS
I've been using orb for years now, its great, I have my cable tv plugged into my video card and can watch live tv, any channel anywhere I am. I only have 2g where I live but tv and video still stream great if I set it around 100k. orb is awesome, and free!

Saw your article on the messengers, can you tell me which you think is the best messenger as on date and IS there any ppc messenger which can let us video chat using the inbuilt camera??? I can see that all the messengers dont have that option, please help me
thanks
(EDIT: I just read this and it sounds like an ad - I have no affiliation with Orb at all. I just got a bit excited that it was working so easily!)
So I've read forum after forum on youtube videos on mobiles (I have a kaiser/tilt) I've played with numerous methods, watched the crappy mini youtube vids and on and on. I was using Kinoma (I paid for it, very nice and I use it all the time) but yesterday I found the answer was so EASY!
A few months ago I installed Orb - (just google for link) It is free software that links your home machine to the net. It runs in the background on your home machine and allows you to link to any file you initially gave access to from any other machine on the www. I use it to stream all my recorded TV shows - including HD shows to my phone. It works great and I've really put it thru it's paces. Like having a mini TV tuner on my phone.
Anyway, TO THE GOOD STUFF. I was looking for other videos (movies and Netflix downloads to test) I had on my home machine and saw a link under the VIDEO tab called Online Videos. From here I can seach for Youtube videos, Google Videos, AOL, Photobucket, Yahoo, and Guba videos. Now I just found this last night, so I haven't looked at how it is done. I assume it is streamed to my home pc and encoded back up for my phone. but it plays the youtube video thru windows media player (as I have my settings on orb set). So it has to be re-encoded right?
AWESOME SOFTWARE - and it's free. I can't beleive that the answer was so easy and right in front of me for weeks.
Happy Streaming - Will
How it works...
So I just got home and had a minute to look up how orb works. From the orb webpage...
http://www.orb.com/en/orb_networks_...e_other_internet_videos_mobile_for_first_time
How Orb MyCasting Works
A simple download of the Orb software to an always-on Windows PC is all it takes to start MyCasting. Instantly, the Orb applications allows users to stream the YouTube RSS feed from their home computer to any Web-enabled mobile device with a browser. Orb automatically transcodes the video stream into the appropriate media format, bitrate, and screen resolution for the user's mobile phone. No specialized mobile software or separate carrier contract is required to enjoy Internet Video on mobile
Now I can't actually surf the full youtube, but any videos can be searched for and watched without any extra sofware on my phone.

I can do that already with the latest Opera 9.5 No need to keep my home pc or anything running.

So, I've got my Fuze... customised... flashed numerous roms, downloaded tons of games and other software... I've figured out a few tricks... And it does a lot of really handy stuff... I can edit schedules for work, carry around all of my information etc... But people constantly ask me... "what do you need a phone that does all of that for?"
So I was wondering if anyone uses their phone to do anything exceptionally cool...
Just looking to get the most out of my device and always looking for new things to tinker with...
Didn't really see a thread dedicated to ideas like this so I thought I'd post one...
i use my phone to play xbox live at work.....oh yes!!!! thank god for internet sharing
I bypass my work's proxy to play online games at work and browse websites they won't let me
Oh, and I sometimes use it to call.
mostly use internet to stream music at work, but that's if i can get a dadgum 3g signal
but i have used it as a level to hang a pic before. that drew some wtfs
I use it to provide near instant support for my Web site's readers. (It's a news site... serves a very general audience.) With my mobile device, I take readers who are angry because they can't find something and have all but given up, and turn them around with my quicker than quick replies. We use exchange, so the real push notifications make near instant replies possible.
Other than that, I use it for true mobile podcast listening. No need to synch my device with a computer to have the latest podcasts.
I also use the device to run our news organization's twitter and facebook updates, as well as live wireless video reporting using Qik.
So, for a newsie site operator, this is a damn good device. With a keyboard.
Play NES and Gameboy ROMS. Browse flash websites with skyfire. Draw using mobile paint programs.
Most exciting, four days ago pocket Blender3d was revived after a two year break.

There are no phones out there that can do this. Its mostly handy for showing off your work in a 3d environment, but you could feasibly create something on the spot as well.
Oh and taking panorama pictures.
whats the best snes or gb emulator for us anyway?
I use Winamp remote to watch tv/movies...decent quality too.
I use it as a graphing calculator.
well, it makes a dandy paper weight. it's also a very cool alarmclock, I use it to read books, I have even used to for a "avoiding irate wife" tool, and it's always been an awesome "irritate wife" tool. it's a gps thingie, a great money eater, and it works awesome to awe and cow the technically illiterate.
lets see
- upload pics of my one year old to facebook, as soon as I take 'em - instant share with all my family and friends!
- upload videos directly to facebook using the new Facebook app
- my defacto ebook reader when I travel
- my MP3 player for my gym work outs
- watch hulu.com on skyfire to catch missed TV epsiodes (on the elliptical)
- podcasts, newsfeeds
- FM radio for listening to the TV in my gym
- i use OneNote Mobile to make all my lists - grocery, shopping, important numbers etc
- English-Spanish dictionary, when I travel
- traffic updates on Google maps
- Weather and Stocks on TF3D
- Tomtom navigation, when I really need to ASK for directions

With this, I can use my phone as a remote control to Windows Media Player or Itunes on my computer. It's great if you link up your computer to a big screen or stream music through an Apple Airport. I don't even have to get up to change a track, pause a video, or fast forward.
Wake On LAN is great too so I can turn on my computer from virtually anywhere in the house using my phone
Have it Fart!!

Let's see:
- Watch movies / series in the train
- Listen to music
- Check internet for information / news / train delays
- GPS in Google maps let me find things easily. With lattitude
my wife knows where I am without calling, which can be good and bad
- ScummVm plays me Monkey Island 1 and 2
- I can use it as a lightsaber
- Appointments & tasks
- Notes
- Use it to control my home computer with remote desktop
- Oh wait, it can call and sms too.
How did you use it to level a picture? Is this an app?
Thanks,
Dave
I'd love to use mine for some of this stuff. Now if I could only find something to get rid of those 40-50 calls I get a day.
when i did the level thingy i just used the gsensor calibration thingy as i didnt have this

My Stuff
Well, I use my Touch Pro for fun and work:
Custom software that hits databases, including SQL Mobile and HandDBase, to maintain expenses/income and clients for partner's business, and my own wine list, cocktail/mixed drinks applications, and such
Update serveral blogs directly
Goof off on the web, and TV, and Instant Messenger
Use to get several different emails, including work, so I can pretend I am working from a bar
Used as a flashlight with "Torch" - comes in handy when sneaking around in the dark, or looking for dropped items in dark areas
it has my music on it so it is my portable MP3 player that I connect to my car and everything
Stream TV, some movies, video clips (yes, even porn)
Edited Microsoft presentations, Excel files, and documents for work and clients
use as GPS navigation in my car, in case you didn't know, some software will work with the GPS in the phone but will use a "voice" to read the directions, and if you just plug your phone into your car Aux. port, it will come across the speakers in your car. Pretty cool to show off.
Of course use it as portable storage, no longer carry around the stupid USB drive sticks
So, some is fun, some is cool, most is work stuff. LOL
