hello all,
i have the htc polaris(touch cruise) and i installed the flashvideobundle and the TCPMP player for playing youtube video's because the streaming media player isn't so good..the first time i opend a video it was played by the TCPMP player but now its opening with the streaming video player...i looked in the option etc.. but i can't see a way to open the videos with the TCPMP player..
reinstalled bundle and core player and still it opens with streaming video player.
Does anyone have an idea how to do this.
thanks
In TCPMP going to Options->Settings, Select page->File associations and marking Flash video checkbox might help..
Do you actually browse the full desktop version of youtube or do you use the mobile version?
Clips from the mobile version are NOT flv (=flash) files but 3GP video files which always open in streaming media. Use the "Video Sites" shortcut in your startmenu to navigate to youtube. If you still end up at the mobile version, see at the very bottom, there should be a link saying something like "take me to the desktop version." It should work that way.

I tried both.with opera browser it always opens the mobile version could not get it to open de desktop version.with the regular internet browser i opend the desktop version and it stil uses the streaming media player.
Ok i found something..i used 3G to connect(before i connected with WIFI) and i was able to play the videos at the desktop version with the TCPMP player.using my wifi it plays with streaming media player.
But connected with 3G on the youtube mobile it stil uses the streaming media player..its a shame because mobile version is damn faster...
But still any recomendations are wellcome....
thanks schaggo and johnsonc
hi,
i used to have the same problem than yours it was my provider sfr that blocks streaming in daylimotion and whan i connect with wifi all works.
I have the same problem. TCMP (with flash-video-bundle) doesnt start if I click a video at http://m.youtube.com. I tried several options, but it didnt help.

Because videos on m.youtube.com are NOT FLASH VIDEO FILES, they are re-encoded to 3gp format. Every cellphone with GPRS, even the most stupid Nokia and Motorola can play 3gp files off m.youtube.com.
Go to http://www.youtube.com/?nomobile=1 with Pocket Internet Explorer, Opera doesnt work.
If it still doesnt work: uninstall the FlashBundle, softreset, reinstall the FlashBundle (be sure to use the lastest version from their homepage) and it'll work.
Again:
m.youtube.com = stupid for all cellphones, NOT the same as regular youtube, almost no movies, re-encoded to 3gp by youtube
Opera doesnt work, it doesnt support the FlashBundle plugin
I suggest to unset Opera as default browser and then use the Video Sites shortcut in your Programs menu.

i didn't see anyone posting this before - i just found out about this plugin, i tried it and it works! for all of you who are tired of converting flv to avi in order to watch it on your ppc, theres a solution. it also comes with utilities to ease the downloading of video from youtube.com, i tried, also works a charm. good luck, and thanks to the creators!

I don't able to play the video:
I put the 3 files in the tcmp folder (in sd card)
I don't able to play the video on the you-tube page
and I don't able to play the video flv (downloaded by youtubedownload.exe) on the player
I run O.72 version with the plugin of 0.81
How you get it successfully?
thanks
Enough only to put the two files .flv in the root TCPMP.
With the others files you are able to download the tape directly on ppc,enough to launch YouTube Download on device..

you mean .plg files i assume. but right, that's what you should do. then also you can edit options>preferences>file associations in tcpmp so then you can launch tcpmp doubleclicking flv file (it is called flash video in options)
uvz: i don't know what's wrong - it works with tcpmp v. 0.71 - my plugin version is 0.2, have no idea how can i help :/
ok, I found the reason..
The 3 files I downloaded was all exe file (??)
I download the zip folder in other place and I found the correctly .plg files.
So now I can play the video on tcpmp, by downloading with the exe.
But I'm not able to stream video directly from you-tube page: it's normal?
I can only download the video and then play with tcpmp, or there are a possibility to open and play directly from the you-tube page by streaming with tcpmp?
Finnaly... I'm now able to play .flv files... horray!!!
I've copied the flv plugin to the TCMP folder and I think they're correctly installed. However when playing youtube vids, it connects to HTC Streaming Media which unfortunately doesn't run vids on my Kaisser.
Do I have to remove streaming Media so that youtube would connect to TCMP when vids are selected? How can I select streaming media into my TCMP?
Would appreciate any feedback. Thanks.
TCPMP streaming problems with WM6
I have an HTC touch cruise with wm6 and I am unable to stream flv files.
I have installed the TCPMP program and I think I installed tcpmp plugin 0.4.2.
When I install the plug in, do the files automatically install themselves in the TCPMP root file??? and how are they identified.
It shows in my settings/system/Remove programs , the TCPMP and TCPMP plugin are both installed Could some one please post step by step install instruction or direct me to one .
Thanks

i downloaded this video from elsewhere and not from youtube. thanx for any help.
http://m.youtube.com/
It works on my HTC Advantage and Palm Treo 700P but not on my Dopod 818 Pro
. You click the watch video link, it will bring up windows media player for the clips.
The disadvantage is that YouTube Mobile doesn't have all contents converted yet.
lol..i was just gonna start the same thread...lucky u hve posted first
I have tested the site on my hermes and found the site is functioning properly without any problem. The video is loaded onto the HTC Streaming Software.
Will it work through WIFI?
When I try to open a video it says 'media file type not supported' .. anyone know whats up with that?
In my case after I have pressed the link to play the movie, the windows media player is activated, tries to connect for a few seconds but then a message box pops up "Unspecified Error". My device is a imate Jasjam.
Regards
mine doesnt even go to windows media player.. it opens .. REALplayer?
mine is working fine over wifi.
when i press the link to play the videos then HTC Streaming Media software appears and it plays the video fine. i think the files are played through the rtsp protocol.
Results on HTC-UNI (02EXEC)
Media player comes up with unspecified error, changed file associations in TCPMP (allow 3gp etc) error = RTSP protocol not supported! hope this helps peple to find a work around and yes i was using wifi as a connection)
mine doesnt open media player.. it opens REAL player... and says file not supported.. I dont get it
I also try to see why I cannot open link on my HTC Prophet. Maybe it needs at least WM5 to work?
It runs on my HTC Advantage with Wifi, ActiveSync, Bluetooth DUN to Sprint EV-DO, and T-Mobile Edge.
Funny thing is my Treo 700P works fine.
I will try my different HTC devices tonight to see if any of those is working with Youube Mobile.
unknown error (using activesync 4.5 on wm6). but that will get fixed. once its in google's hands its golden.
works on my trinity orange uk rom thru wifi. it uses pvplayer which i think is a version of realplayer/htc streaming media.

I am not sure about what "call wmp instead of streaming" means.
Do you mean you want WMP not to streaming? Which means save target link first instead of playing.
Or, get wmp to be the program to play video from YouTube?
YouTube Mobile uses .3gp format for its video instead of flash.
3gp is a simplified version of the MP4. (Which is supposed to be std. for 3G phones)
Basically, whatever program associated with .3gp will take it over when you click the "watch video" link.
I too get the "unspecified error" in WMP.
Viatorx, use TCPMP.
I also had the problem of it trying to open realplayer and not working. I did a hard reset and voila, it works through the streaming player now. I am slowly re=adding my apps and I'm starting to think it may be the Custel Cingular Apps program.... I hope not, as I like the programs. I'm using 3g's take on lvsw rom..... fyi
HI
If i am not mistaken basically you need to load an appropriate media player that supports the YouTube streaming format and it will work. i believe that RSFTP is what u get on WMP10, so if the format coming out on YouTube is not RSFTP u not gonna b able to play it off WMP!
HTC Streaming Media
The mobile YouTube video site { works best with the HTC streaming media player v2.10 build 1025.621} It comes on most wm6 rom. I have this player on my MDA, running Core 2.0, it works great and connects fast after you get to http//m.youtube.com using wifi.
Youtube launches the Stream Player and the player gives the error message "unable to find network" after a few seconds. Any suggestions?

Best player around !
I have just downloaded it and tried it but no joy.
I used the Youtube link on the player and I can see the list of video categories (most viewed, rated, discussed etc) and when I click on one to play it shows the video details and a thumbnail with a small play icon in it. I click this, coreplayer goes to play it but the animated circle just keeps going around and around on the black player screen.
I specifically tried a short video of only about a minute and waited for over a minute and still nothing.
Is there something I've missed?
I've just tried and did exactly what you did and Core Player played the video I choose.
Have you tried with several videos? Maybe it was a problem with the video you choose?
@+
1. Check associations for coreplayer (RTP, RTSP Protocols)
EDIT - 2. On the Network page 'Network Access Enabled' and 'Prefer UDP streaming' have to enabled
3. Whith your favourite browser visit the mobile site of youtube, and search out your video.
4. On the video deatils page, click 'Watch Video'
5. Coreplayer should start immediately and start puffering the stream (the playlist icon on the lower right turns red)
6. After a few secs of puffering the video should start
If the puffer is too small you can adjust it size and also enable the 'Micro drive Mode'.
Got it to work through Coreplayer and youtube link by changing to H264. By the way in File Associations of Coreplayer is it better to have Select All ticked?
Gnick666 tried your suggestion through a browser but tries to use Stream Media program and not coreplayer. How do I make Coreplayer the default player or disable Stream media?
Thanks everyone for your help.
If the 2 associations I mentioned earlier are ticked, the CorePlayer should take over all streaming links.
It's not necessearly better to have all item ticked, because some ppl don't want to play their mp3 files in whith coreplayer.

yes I did. Youtube(mobile with opera 9.5 diamond build) use to open with tcpmp but once I moved to wm 6.1(official rom) it started to open in WMP. Then after installing the 3g2 and other codec plug in for wmp it stop working, even after uninstalling it. And yes I read that page twice.
everytime I try to play a youtube video with wmp it says there is a source error. Anyway to fix this issue?

For starters, WMP doesn't support those file types. So, make sure you have installed the FLV bundle to the same location as TCPMP, and make sure .flv is an associated file with TCPMP. As mentioned above, this has been a very popular subject, so be sure to search for this. Playing youtube videos is probably the easiest thing to achieve these days, it is very simple.
I don't think you understand. I can play youtube files fine with I.E. and tcpmp. However, with Opera 9.5 and youtube mobile pages which they don't work well anymore. I was able in the past to get it to work before. The opera would open the files up in WMP and play them. But once I installed these plugins for wmp http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366471 WMP stopped playing it citing a source error. So I uninstalled the files and still the same issue still citing a source error.
So, what I want to know now is how to make opera open the files up in TCPMP like I.E. does, or maybe even get to work in WMP again. Thank you.
anyone have both WMP 6 and 6.1 defualt codec dll and such?
Ok, didn't know you were trying to open through Opera. If uninstalling doesn't work, you prob need to hard reset, considering you altered the system file, and the uninstallation didn't revert it back to normal. I'm not even sure Opera will open a YouTube video in TCPMP. I believe it is coded to open out of PIE. I only use PIE for YouTube really, just use ytpocket.com. Makes browsing YouTube quicker and easier. Also, the vids you were plaing before in WMP are low quality .3GP files.
really? I was wondering why the quality was terrible when compared to TCPMP. Well on that subject I some how just lost .3gp support on my device also. The 3gp file my camera phone records won't play on wmp, and plays on tcpmp but with audio errors(I installed the plugin to get the camera phone videos to work with WMP again).
anyone please?
can you make opera mini open youtube files with TCPMP like it does with IE and flash bundle?
ok i'm posting this here because i can't find a section for samsung win mo devices here.
when i play video clips from youtube mobile site on my samsung i780 it by default uses a program called microsoft pocket video player (pvplayer). Problem is it only works via my HSDPA connection not WiFi. This is a problem because I'm on a capped data plan. I can't find any icon for this mysterious player so I can maybe add the WiFi connection as default.
Does anyone know how to change the default player for IE? I have TCPMP installed and have selected the setting to default to .3gp video files (youtube mobile site delivers videos in .3gp format)
I know there are standalone youtube players but I prefer to get it to work via the browser first as I already have the necessary ingredients already on the phone. cheers!

please always read my related articles before posting q's. Your problem is that of RTSP callbacks. That is, you need to use something non-RTSP-based: FLV or H.264. I recommend CorePlayer and Kinoma Play the most.
