[APP] Youtube got Mobile

Youtube got mobile (http://m.youtube.com) and now streams 3gp files via rtsp. Unfortunately WM10 cannot play these streams, but there exists a HTC Streaming Mediaplayer which plays it just fine. The app is posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1315644&postcount=553
I copied it to my Vox and it works, except my browser still opens WM10 when I click on a video.
Does anyone know how to associate HTC streaming media player with urls of type rtsp:// ??
EDIT: See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1322849&postcount=20 for getting this to work on S710
EDIT2: Try installing this cab here first, before trying the manual install procedure
HTC Streaming Media Player Older Version Works Best
The HTC streaming media player,the older version v2.10 build 1025.621 works best. This version is found in "Core 2.0" and Faria's "Real Thing". That's the application we all need! Now I do have it on my MDA running the Core 2.0, it connects to http://m.youtube.com very fast, works great, but I want to put the app on another device. That Touch streaming media player,looks good on the T-Mobile Dash, it tries to connect to rtsp://ect.....!, BUT THE SAME PROBLEM YOU ARE HAVING, WHEN YOU TRY TO CONNECT TO THE YOUTUBE VIDEOS WMP10 COMES UP, WILL NOT PLAY THE CLIP!
The link I posted above V2.10 Build 518.700
Don't know if yours is newer.
I just tried it with this link: rtsp://rtsp.youtube.com/youtube/videos/JBWbJLYfrgs/video.3gp
and it just quits the player.
Where do I find "Core 2.0" and Faria's "Real Thing"?
Wizard Wm6 Threads
Look in the wizard wm6 section or do a search, it should be easy to find! The 1.7 reload has that streaming media player also!
Thx! Have u tried the rtsp link above? does it work for you?
I think I found the reg keys for handling rtsp.
Should be something like this:
Code:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RTSP]
(Default)=URL:Windows Media Streaming Protocol
URL Protocol=
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RTSP\DefaultIcon]
(Default)=\Program Files\PacketVideo\PVPlayer\PVPlayer.exe, 0
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RTSP\Shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RTSP\Shell\Open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RTSP\Shell\Open\Command]
(Default)=""\Program Files\PacketVideo\PVPlayer\PVPlayer.exe" %1
I found that here: http://www.hkppc.com/bbs/viewthread.php?tid=2422
The funny thing is that there seems also to be a PVPlayer (PacketVideo) which can do rtsp ??
Missing Complete Link Data
All the rtsp url info is not there, but I can connect to mobile youtube easy and fast and watch all the videos! I'm watching the Paris Hilton jail video via wifi!
The Pvplayer Will Work Also
A major breakthrough, but where do I find the download. I do not speak Chinese. The registry stuff find is awesome guy! Will the pvplayer just work on Nokia phones, but the above registry data is for a windows devices!
I just improved the link where I found it:
http://www.hkppc.com/bbs/viewthread.php?tid=2422
I think you must register to be able to dl it
The Hack Makes The Pvplayer The Primary Player
I've use the above hack before to make the TCPMP/player the primary player over wmp10 to watch Orb on the TCPMP/player, it works!
I'm glad I could help you, but so far I haven't got anything to work
Perhaps you can reply on the PM I just sent to you. Also you say you are running TCPMP. Which version? And can it do RTSP?
I'm using Coreplayer which works great, but can't do RTSP yet
The Hong Kong PPC site which has the registry tweak talks about the Pvplayer platform4. Seems hard to find too. See:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286803
Í found it and attached it to this post.
Maybe it's the same as this Philips Platform4 player for PPC (doesn't install on SP, prolly need manual install or cloning from PPC emu):
http://www.pdagold.com/software/detail.asp?s=513
Would be nice if someone manages to install and test these apps on S710
Below are the registry settings for HTC Streaming Media Player.
Ýou find it in the distro which I linked at the top, it's in a68b298c-c2c5-409c-a145-3113bcf2baa1.rgu
I'm a bit worried that there are keys missing, in particular MIME settings for .3gp files
PS: Who knows a good registry tool which can import files?

A Major Breakthrough Again
Do we still need to do the wmp10 registry hack?
That hack from hkppc was actually intended for Pvplayer.
In fact you see similar keys in a68b298c-c2c5-409c-a145-3113bcf2baa1.rgu
For example
Code:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PROTOCOLS\Handler\rtsp]
"CLSID"="{EA48DF9C-1362-41F2-BD83-B97507F9484B}"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{EA48DF9C-1362-41F2-BD83-B97507F9484B}]

"Extension"=".sdp"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\URLProtocols\rtsp]
@=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\rtsp\Shell\Open\Command]
@="StreamingPlayer.exe %1"
But I haven't been able to test it, because I'm looking for a registry editor which can import files. Do you know one?
Total Commander
Do a Google search for total commander for ppc. I believe that's what you need!
I've got TC, never knew I can import reg files Thx for that!
EDIT: Import doesn't work when I copy a .reg file to \\\registry it says "function not supported"
I'm using TC/CE V.2.5PB
Btw: did you already try Pvplayer and Philips Platform4 player ?
PvPlayer Opens At Youtube Mobile
The Player open when I click on video, but no video will play, but I believe we can get this to work. It's just a matter of time, because it picks up the rtsp url. I will have to take a brake, maybe one for hr. I will be back later! We will get this player to work! I have this player install on a Dell Axim X51v, connection, wifi. The Playr is beautiful!
Pvplayer Trying To Connect
Something is blocking this player from connecting to the Youtubue videos!
I'll try them in the M$ PPC emu t'morrow.
Enough for 2day
PvPlayer Smartphone Version
Do you have the pvplayer smartphone version? The ppc pvplayer version is suppose to work with YouTube mobile, but for some unknown reason it will not connect!
I managed to install the HTC Streaming Media for Smartphone Version 2.10 (Build 518.700) Copyright 2005-2007 on my S710
When I start IE and go to m.youtube.com and start a video, the HTC player is correctly started and plays the videos
I must say I'm not so impressed by the quality but alas it works fine
Okay, here are the steps to install the player on your S710
1. Download the HTC player from here. Unpack it and copy all files to \Windows
2. Install Resco Explorer 5.32 (it's the registry editor you need)
3. Download the registry key which I attach to this message and import it with Resco reg editor
Have fun!
EDIT:
1. also works fine from Opera Mobile 8.65b
2. you can operate the player buttons with Fakecursor (altho via menus it also works perfect)
3. you may want to reduce the pre-buffer time (default 7 sec)

ORB, streaming video help?

OK, I need help streaming video on my tilt. I installed Dutty’s latest rom, the touch v 1 or what ever. Great rom. However, I cant seem to get streaming video to work. Its kind of like it tried to download the files instead of opening them. Everytime I click on a link in order (when using .asx mode) it says “a file with the name already exists, do you want to replace it? Yes or no”. I hit yes, and it launches a program called TCPMP. Now, 1 day ago, I had streaming working. Streaming took place in duttys customer windows media player using port 80. the problem with this new program is it doesn’t let you select a port, and as soon as it launches it gives the error “file not found! –web \mydocuments\stream.wmwebasx” Anyone have any Idea how I can get streaming video working again on my tilt?
I even tried realplayer, and that doesn’t work either. .3gp goes to HTC’s streaming program, but again, that doesn’t work either. Im really at a loss 
........
I use xda live and have installed tcpmp for streaming purposes myself. I use it with orb and it works perfect. You just need to make sure you have all the codecs. and supposedly it works better with tcpmp .72 version not .81..not sure which dutty used.

Moodio Streaming Radio

I stumbled across this site recent (moodio.fm), but can't get it working on my HTC touch. I downloaded HTC Streaming Media player, which can stream m.youtube videos, but can't seem to open moodio.fm radio stations. Anyone else come across this?
I'm on the Bell network btw, maybe Bell blocks certain ports?
Any help is appreciated.
I have an HTC Fuze and would also like an answer to this question. The streaming medial player won't seem to open Moodio links. Moodio is a great site with tons of great stations. Anyone have a fix to opening these links?
some times use mediaplayer streaming or realplayer or quicktime so being able to play youtube matters little in those cases
I would mess around with different browsers to see both on the computer and the pda
The Moodio site says the link should open with the streaming media application, and when you click the link it does bring up the streaming media player, but it does not load and gives a message that "media file type not supported".
The Moodio site says the link should open with the streaming media application, and when you click the link it does bring up the streaming media player, but it does not load and gives a message that "media file type not supported".
anyone figure this out yet? I recall it working with some othe streaming app on the diamond, but since I've reflashed the ROM I lost the app.
Hello. I've been searching for a solution to this for quite some time and finally found a way to stream Moodio, from a totally unrelated thread here on XDA-Developers. It's a bit complicated, mind you, but so far it's worked for me every time both over WiFi and HSDPA on my Xperia X1.
Try the following:
1. Go to m.moodio.fm and log in.
2. Click on a station you wish to play. At this point, the HTC Streaming Player will launch and you will receive the "unsupported media type" error. You will also now have a file downloaded by Moodio in your My Documents folder called Listen.sdp.
3. Rename the .sdp file to .txt (either on the PC or with something like Resco Explorer so that it can be opened in Word Mobile. Alternatively you can install the HouMing File Explorer extension, select the Open With Program option, and open the file with Word Mobile, so as not to have to rename the file.
4. Look for the entry that begins with the string 'a=control:' and contains the 'rtsp://'. Example: 'a=control:rtsp://moodio-3.seeas.nl/3938994'.
5. Ignore the 'a=control:' and copy the part of the string that begins with 'rtsp//'. Example: 'rtsp://moodio-3.seeas.nl/3938994'.
6. Open your media player (in my case, the HTC Streaming Media player), and paste this text in the URL field. The station should then play as expected. (Note that you can also play the station by pasting this text into the address bar of your browser like Pocket IE, which will then automatically launch the Streaming Media Player and play it. At this point I save the file to Favorites in the HTC Streaming Media Player so I can play it any time I wish.
I thought I would post this since I have searched and searched and have not seen anyone mention this alternative with respect to Moodio.
Hope this helps those of you who, like me, have had no luck in streaming Moodio on your Windows Mobile device up to now.
Hi,
I'm the developer behind moodio.fm. I used an Xperia X1 myself for sometime last year and i'm very sure Moodio played on it without the need for this trick.
Have you tried different browsers? As far as i remember it only worked in IE.
If you provide me with your Moodio user name i can check the exact user agent string the phone sends and add an exception in our system to redirect these phones to the direct rtsp url instead of returning an SDP file.
regards
Oele

Hello Oele. Wow, that would be fantastic! I can tell you that I joined Moodio some time back (I believe perhaps June or July of last year), and I have always received the .sdp file on my Xperia X1A since day one. I tried to find a solution back then and couldn't, so gave up for a while and didn't use Moodio. I recently decided to search once more to see if I could find something and this is when I came across the workaround described in my prior post. But if you can make it so that my device is automatically redirected to the rtsp URL, that would be wonderful. I have only tried this with IE, BTW, as that is the only browser I use. My Moodio username is queenv. If you need any additional information, please let me know. Thanks again!
Could you try again? You should now get a redirect to the RTSP url.

Yes! I just tried it and I certainly do! Now it just plays and I no longer have to do my workaround. Thanks a million!!!!

Video Streaming Question

what is the most effective way to stream video on your PPC
i ve got a tytn II.
my question:
1. How do I use the 'streaming media' program that asks for rtsp:\\?
2. I also want to stream video directly from my PC from my tytn. i had to set my PC as a VPN server for my tytn to view the shared media file but it wouldnt play anything. I could only view the files.

I have the HTC network plugin installed which allows me to view all my shared files and folders from my desktop on my device. I use TCPMP to access my desktop shared files and folders to view my appropriately converted videos and listen to my desktop's music collection. (All this at home over WIFI connection.
When away from home but still using WIFI (any open unlocked WIFI hotspot) I use Winamp remote which I can leave running on my desktop at home. Logon to winamp remote from winamp remote website using my internet browser on my device and access my shared folders (had to direct to these specific folders using Winamp remote from desktop first) and view videos or listen music on my device which are on my desktop computer at home.
thanks for the reply. i tried the HTC network plugin. it looks like a promising little tool but it fails to detect my PC i am afraid.
i am also curious as to why I can ONLY view the shared files on my PC while doing a search through the 'file explorer' over a VPN connection seeing that my Tytn II and my PC are on the same network? this seems unneccesary and I think is the reason why the network plugin wont detect any PC on the network.
not sure what I am doing wrong.
p.s. the TCPMP woulnt install on my tytn II either.
I installed the tcpmp.pocketpc.0.72RC1.cab . it gives me an error msg "unexpected program failure.please send crash.txt to developers"
i am using WM6.1

I'm surprised it won't install. Download it from another site and try again.
strange strange - i tried the network plugin with a XDA Ignito aka HTC touch diamond and it worked like a charm. was able to detect all devices on my network and was able to run all media file using coreplayer. PERFECT
gotto thank hotrod101 for pointing me in the right direction.
so i guess i need to sort out my tytn II out - i cant say i m very happy with the device. i ve had problem with it ever since i ve updated it with WM6.1 and prior to it.
still looking forwarding to hearing from someone about the rtsp:\\ streaming media thingy bobby.

Flash support for opera or IE

Hi, can anyone watch flash videos on either opera or internet explorer? My youtube app works fine but i can't seem to view youtube videos through the browser itself.
Thanks
I've installed flash player 7 for ppc and it works. But not everywhere and in IE only. Some videos don't support this version.
open your browser in your d2, go to : m.skyfire.com....download, install and enjoy
greetz, Werner
It can't create connection, when I'm on wifi. Do you know why ? Thanks

The newest version of flash lite for WM5/6 is Flash Lite 3.1 (same for Symbian). You can download it from: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/distributableplayer.html
Look for: "Download the Developer edition for Windows Mobile 6 Professional (ZIP, 928 KB)", on the bottom of page.
It working very well in Opera Mobile, even playing flash movie.
Flash video
Why don't you try to write: m.youtube.com instead then www.youtube.com you will see that the streaming media will open and play your video. Very simple. take care
Playing videos and browser
The best browser on the planet to play any video is SkyFire...I open even Rainews24...is better then Opera then you can try with Iris browser is very fast or Bolt or NetFront or Mach 5 accelerator is very fast too, they are all very good browsers....Unfortunately Microsoft cracked down on DeepFish that one was very good....But don't to worry soon or later Flash 10 will go out on the market the thing is The Market don't want stop the selling of IPhone....and Iphone is not ready yet for Flash 10...all Windows Mobile are ready
Can you image Flash 10 on Windows Mobile this month? Apple businessmen will kill them self...Iphone is simply not compatible.

Maby it is good browser but not for VGA and WVGA units. Until they not switch their servers for resolution different than QVGA it will not be the best browser.

For Opera Mobile you simply need a DLL file and add an extra line into opera.ini/opera1.ini!
I've attached the DLL for you! Just remove the ".zip" after downloading the file for proper usage!
Copy the DLL file to \Windows\Opera9\plugins (if the folder doesn't exsist, create it) and add this into your opera.ini/opera1.ini in the "User Prefs" section:
Code:
NS Plugin Path=\Windows\Opera9\plugins\NPFL3ppc.dll

You mean we have to first install Flash Lite 3.1 and then go through this procedure? Or we do it directly, without installing Flash Lite at all?
Can anyone with Opera Mobile and flash installed visit www.letour.fr and tell me whether it works for him/her? My Opera always crashes.

I've installed flash player and flash lite and opera didn't crash on that site, however I can't see flash videos, yellow area is there only.
I tried all the solutions suggested in this forum, but no luck with my Flash in Opera... Too bad...

FlashLite 3.1 must be installed, I think! In most of my ROMs is Adobe Flash in the SYS part so I think yes, it must be installed!
I tried it with Opera installled... No luck!
IE mobile 5 + FlashLite3.1 Can play flashvideo, IE mobile 6 can't
