HTC Touch Streaming Media

hello.
l have and love my Bell Mobility HTC TOUCH.
I have TCMP installed works great. I have HTC Steaming Media installed , works not so good.
I want to apologize for beating this horse again, but I have used the search and I can't find my solutions. Everything I find is for other phones/devices.
I can not get rtsp or mss or any other Steaming links to work.
is there any fix, registry edits file edits, dll additions etc.for my device?
nothing would please me more about my TOUCH if I could watch sky sports streams, tv.tuga etc!
again I am sorry if I missed anything in my search regarding my enquiries .
thank you xda guru's

I'm curious myself also, my at&t hermes came with realplayer for streaming (terrible, no fullscreen!); I installed 'htc streaming media' but haven't been able to get it to work either; probably just a registry fix and/or a proxy setting, just don't know what yet.

YouTUBE on HTC S710

I know you have all been through this before but I need to know once and for all: Can I watch youTUBE or ANYtube videos on my phone?
My phone won't install Flash 7 and Flash Lite seems to not work either. I've tried HTC Streaming Media and that has not worked and CorePlayer will not install on my phone as well.
Am I forgetting to carry the one somewhere or is this a lost cause?

Kinoma freeplay can do this. The free version only shows 6 movies per hit but the full version you can watch everything on youtube

Hmph.
Let me try this one out. Thanks champ

Okay. I think we're going somewhere.
I got it and installed it and yet when I click on a video it gives me a 'Forbidden protocol 403' error.
Where to from here?

hmm thats strange, it worked fine for me on WIFI (gprs too, but very very slow!)
Do you have another app installed wich changes something with you internet connection?

Ummm.....what do you mean?
I'm not sure if this answers your question but I have a gang load of players installed: TCMP, YouTube Play (which also doesn't want to play), vTap, HTC Streaming, Kinoma.
I've been trying to solve this since Friday and to be honest, I see no reason that inspires me (more obsesses me) than pure 'I HAVE to win with this dammit!'
Some fools never learn it appears.

Oo!
Wait. Does it make a difference whether I install these programs on my device or MicroSD card?
I've installed them on the memory card because my phone *****es at me about memories.
On that subject, my OperaMobile also hangs on me. It seems this software doesn't like me. I think it's because I'm South African c",)

Try Skyfire, a browser with flash support. It'll play any flash content!

vtap
its surprising no one mention about vtap...its free and and no hassle..
www.vtap.com

I tried vTap and was unsuccessful with that one too

Youtube in metropcs with sprint phone

Does anyone know how to make youtube apps works on Metropcs
network?
Thanks

Can you please be more specific and mention exactly what doesn't work, what ROM you're running, etc?

I think he wants a youtube app that works on metro pcs. I have a metro flashed sprint htc touch pro and the youtube app that came with it works fine. I able to watch youtube. Make sure your internet is working.
Coreplayer also has a youtube player that works as well.
It also makes easy for members to help you if you specify your phone and rom...by the way, I am using Rom SSK 1.7 (go to device info).

I am running mighty rom 11/25 on TP2.
My internet works fine, only youtube does not work. I can't get youtube from coreplayer nor the built in youtube app.
Do I need to change any proxy setting in windows registry for youtube in metropcs network?
When using the youtube app, I get "no videos found" error. However, the youtube app is working fine when I am connected via wifi.
I have verified that I get a decent data speed ~280 kbps.
Thanks

I am using Juicy R5 on metro, have sprint touch pro2.
i wasn't able to get the youtube player that came with the rom to work, however i do use an app called youtube play. that one worked fine.
i particularly like this one because it gives me the option to rotate screen either way on full screen, download videos and even convert them to mp3

Thank you. I will give it a try

your welcome, let me know how it works out

It is working with this app. I also find out that I can use the old youtube app version 1.6.
For some reason the new youtube app 2.6 won't work on Metropcs network.

Watching TV on the HD2 (UK)

Hi there,
Does anyone know of any good sites I can watch live tv on my HD2?
Perhaps including satellite channels..
Thanks in advance..

The best site I have found so far, is http://www.tvcatchup.com
BUT you need to use Skyfire as your browser as it needs flash support.
Seems to work nice, it does quite a few channels, but it is a live service, so what you see is what is actually broadcasting on that channel now.
You should actually need a TV license for it, as it is live.

thanks thats great

i'll try this later, cheers.

For the basic channels (including the world cup games) use myplayer, one of the best programs available for the hd2 imho - also has iplayer, premiership matches (not live) catch up (4OD,5 etc.) and pay stuff.

ye myplayer is ace
http://www.skynetsoftware.com/myPlayer/index.aspx
Im gonna use it to watch the match tonight when im in work

I cant get anything to work for tonights game... myplayer, opera ... i installed flashlite too... nothing...

Try this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338350
You need to register (free) but it works a treat.

myplayer works fine for me!
http://www.skynetsoftware.com/myPlayer/index.aspx
It does say that you'll need Coreplayer installed as well to watch the Live TV though!
¹ CorePlayer is required to view the Live Digital TV (UK) streams

You don't actually need coreplayer for the live tv. Just set the digital tv quality to std or low on the options menu and then u can using streamingplayer or wmp - which needs to be set as ur rtmp player.

I wrote a guide about that!

Does anyone know of a way to watch 4OD?
Thats pretty much the only thing I want to watch on the move and Its one of the few things I cant get working.
Myplayer doesnt show it in any lists unless Im missing something. Was it removed from the latest version of myplayer? I ask that because Ive seen more than a couple of people state that 4od is included in myplayer.
Do the old versions of myplayer still have working 4od?
Any other way to watch it?
Skyfire just gives me a black screen when I try to watch any of the 4od streams.
Anyone got this working at all???

HTC YouTube WVGA for TG01?

I have looked on these and other forums for a working cab of the htc youtube from the touch hd or the blackstone that works on the TG01 but haven't manage to find a working one. I installed the latest certs and htc framework but still cannot play video. It a shame as the quality of the videos is really good. I remember when I had my blackstone the quality on the wvga screen was fab on the tg01 is got to be smoother and better hey?
If someone has ported this can you be so kind to point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance guys

143 views and nobody can point me to a working version?
Please guys, google youtube is crap. Interface and quality are dreadful.
I have tried the touch hd it version but it doesnt even install. What are the things that I need?
Thanks all in advance

In CorePlayer theres YouTube supports, just change the setting to hight quality and you are set to go.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I know that, the version that I have of core player is the original one that comes with the rom. I have upgraded to the newer version but felt it was too slow and benchmarked a lot less that the original one. Unfortunatly the original version does not have the youtube feature working. I still think that the videos look a lot better and the UI is much nicer with the HTC version. I have tried the TP2 version but it doesn't work either. Do I need anything else installed apart from the HTC framework and the certs do you think? It all installs fine and shows the videos but when I try to play them it says that the videos cannot be played error. Again, thanks for replying.

I use youtubeplay
http://tinyurl.com/youtubeplay
Unfortunately it seems that Youtube has just banned it because it appears a Error messaje: Failed to play: -3
Best Regards

Thanks, you're right. It looks like it's been banned. Don't work for me.
Thanks all the same

I don't know what to say but omg. How did you get this ?!! I've been looking everywhere for a youtube app after trying MVU Mobile Browser and youtubeplayer. I looked on youtube and kept saying your device isn't supported (TG01). Google didn't return any results for any youtube native apps for windows mobile.
I've installed it and honestly didn't expect it to work, but it does! The only problem is though is that since youtube have updated their mobile website, the quality is much better than what is streamed on the native apps, such as the one I've just downloaded from your post. There doesn't appear to be a HQ button on the app so I guess it's streaming from 3GP.
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for posting this. Hopefully, it will be a long while yet before Windows Mobile is actually abandoned, even though various sources state that development has come to an end for the platform.
BTW, Youtubeplayer doesn't work for me either, hence why I started to use MVU Mobile Browser as my youtube FLV downloader - playback still doesn't seem to work in coreplayer

Officially confirmed from COREPLAYER that Google has changed anything on Youtube and after that, COREPLAYER can't play Youtube videos. They say that next Coreplayer release will fix it (paying?? )
http://forum.corecodec.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2746&p=11146&hilit=youtube+fails#p11146
I've downloaded the last official Youtube app for WM
Only avilable from the phone: http://m.youtube.com/app , and I also think that quality image has been improved, but not for all the videos (I can't understand why...). Besides, looks great on our big screen!!
So, I've just deleted youtubeplay from my device and perhaps Coreplayer will be the next, as I prefer TCPMP
(On the other hand if you have your own videos on Youtube, you can watch them easily with the new app. Not possible with Youtubeplay)

repliesrseem to be a bit of topic. use a htc branded rom, you can find many on this forum, then you have youtube htc player. still i strongly recommend using coreplayer. btw i have the latest version so youtube works fine.

Can you please confirm which version you have. I'm thinking of buying coreplayer latest version but problem is I don't know which one to get because there is smartphone and pocketpc but smartphone says nontouchscreen! Which one did you choose?
Thanks, and does youtube work on the lastest version? Cheers
P.S. I can't believe we have to pay to upgrade coreplayer!! Even though it comes free with the phone. I have a good mind not to bother to be honest because I'd rather support the developers here than let coreplayer have my money. Problem is though, it seems google keep changing the way video is streamed on their servers all the time, causing playback issues with our software.

oh no! i have the same version. my youtube no longer works! why? it was working before. perhaps a new version and developer cannot afford to lisence the old version. however i am on holiday atm maybe the servers could be a problem? personally i think its selfish if you have to upgrade for a new version to get youtube!

Read my link to COREPLAYER forum....
I'm afraid that all that has been a Google strategy because it coincide in time with the launching of the new Youtube mobile....
