?[How to] All youtube videos link to youtube application - General Questions and Answers

I was wondering if there was a way to get all the youtube videos when clicked on in opera 9.7 to open in the youtube application. Opera used to open the mobile version of you tube which would link to the youtube application when I chose a link from google, now however, It links to the youtube site and I get the flash error message.
I'm going to flash a new ROM onto my HTC HD2 soon when they get the HSPL sorted, which will hopefully restore this function of opera. However, I was wondering if anyone knew in the mean time how to change this in the settings.
I personally cannot find anything in opera:config.
Also when there are embedded youtube videos in websites is there a way to click on them to get them to open in the youtube application?
I've tried installing flash for opera on my phone. Which I think is what changed this setting. I removed it because it caused problems with Opera crashing.
I've also tried searching for this in google and this site but all I can find is people wanting to do the opposite, open youtube in opera.

Youtube Video Download Problems with Dolphin Browser

Apologies in advance if this is in the wrong place, but I cannot seem to download videos from Youtube using the latest Dolphin Browser on my N1.
To clarify, I went to m.youtube.com on WIFI, searched for the video that I want, clicked it, then clicked Download This Video in the pop-up. I then saved the file as video.mp4. However, nothing happens, nothing is added to the download list, and nothing along the lines of video.mp4 appears in Astro.
Anyone can advise on this?
^ does your program have anything to do with Android? I don't think it is what he's asking for
if you want to download youtube, why not use Tube Downloader in the market, it is free
I EVEN CAN'T access to my youtube, i email them [email protected]
and the problem has solved
i use the latest version dolphin browser HD v5.0
i prefer the mini version.
as a beginner, i really appreciate their timely support.

[Q] How do you download videos??

Not Youtube, but from a browser. On the Vibrant, when you chose a video from a website it gave you the option to stream it to your video player, or you could hit web and it would download it and store it on the SD card. With the G2X it only gives me the option to stream it to video player. I tried different browsers, the same thing happens with Dolphin, Opera comes closest but says cannot download unsupported file type. I know MP4 is a supported file type. Anyone found a solution for this?
I'm very interested myself.
Been trying to find the answer? U^
Yeah, no luck. Tried different browsers, looked all through settings it just doesn't work. Probably going to have to replace whatever apk controls it. Maybe the browser.

This sucks but no phone is perfect. Wondering... I might just switch phones with android all that matters is how the phone looks. Roms come and go...
Opera mini on 3g would give me the option to download but then says I don't heave enough memory.
Well you can download videos from the Youtube site just follow this guide ---> http://www.knowyourcell.com/lg/lg-g...ad_and_save_youtube_videos_on_the_lg_g2x.html
Or on Firefox mobile you can download the Video DownloadHelper add-on to download videos from any site.

No idea how to find that addon
video download helper is for the pc right? How does that help with the phone?
EDIT: So with firefox when you click on a flashplayer video it downloads it. Guess it's a start. Kind of sucks having to watch it on flashplayer on regular browser then go to firefox to download it but at least you can download.

[Q] is youtube blocking 360p and above in browser?

I can view anything at or above 360p from YouTube via default or dolphin browser?
The default YouTube app sucks dong cuz it buffers forever and I can't change quality of video...
If anyone know why I can't choose 360p in browser please let me know.
In the YouTube app there is HD button to switch between SD HD.
If you visit the desktop version of YouTube on the xoom you will have the same options as you would on your computer.
If you don't know how to do that search for about:debug ua string.

I am running desktop UA but YouTube would not play anything above 360p in browser.
Is it only me?
I prefer YouTube in browser than the dumb app.
Same issue here, seems to have just started a couple of days ago as it worked fine before when watching 720p in the browser. Now no videos work in pluse, stock browser or dolphin. Just get "an error, try back later". So then I click to go to the YouTube page for the video and still does not work. The only way to work is to swtich the ua string to android, I use the dolphin toggle extension but it is very annoying to have to do this all the time, I don't want to view mobile site on my tablet. Wtf is Google doing this, why block tablets from seeing HQ video, the main differentiation between their offerings and the ipad.
My guess, something to do with copyright. I personally think that its stupid to block mobile video in the first place.
I have had no issues. 720p plays in browser. Check your settings for playback on the YouTube site. If that don't work. Clear data for browser. That will loose all your bookmarks etc though.

Got the same problems myself now.

I have no problems with it either way. If its android it just loads the mobile then I click on open desktop site. When on desktop it just goes right to desktop of course. No issues.
Cant watch any videos on the desktop site now.

You should be able to watch 240p
You're right, but that sucks.
Are you guys having the problem with stock Adobe Flash or only the modified version of Adobe Flash for hulu.com support?

Youtube doesn't even play for me with the flash from manta rom...
I have the modified hulu version.
am also using modified hulu version....
In my version of the hulu flash, all I modified was the version number and from Android to Windows so unless youtube now actually verifies the version number along with the version type, that may be the reason. There is a new version of Adobe Flash released yesterday, I will modify it as usual and will report the results here since I can't do much with hex editing as that is the only known hack.

can you post please because I would like to watch YT on my xoom again.
If you all are still having troubles with your Youtube on the Stock Browser, Dolphin, Opera, or Firefox, can you please give me some more details on your settings?
When you say "Desktop Browser" are you refering to www.youtube.com and forcing it to stay that way or is it going to www.youtube.com and then changing to the mobile version, m.youtube.com?
(Only Stock Browser) Have you done the "Aboutebug" (Without quotes) mode and change your browser to LOOK like a desktop UI?
~~If you are using the "Aboutebug" Mode, are you running on Wi-Fi only or are you running 3g?
(Dolphin/Opera Browsers only) Have you gone in and changed the settings to make it look like a Desktop Browser or are you still allowing it to display as a Android Device?
When the videos do work, have you tried to clear your Cache and History to keep the information in the buffer low when you are just getting ready to watch videos/just after you are done watching videos? (I ask because I noticed on my Wi-Fi Stock Rooted Rom that if you do not use the Youtube App, it bogs down the Cache and the History just gets cluttered...)
Are you making sure there are not other applications running too and choking out the Browser UI's? (aka, getting a task manager and killing apps before you go into another app)
I hope to help you out, as well as others in the near future (be it advice or with the same problem) and get this problem resolved!
Thank You for the information in advance! ^_^
Sure,
When you say "Desktop Browser" are you refering to www.youtube.com and forcing it to stay that way or is it going to www.youtube.com and then changing to the mobile version, m.youtube.com?
=> No, I'm using desktop UA string so it is always www.youtube.com. I have to manually go to m.youtube.com.
(Only Stock Browser) Have you done the "Aboutebug" (Without quotes) mode and change your browser to LOOK like a desktop UI?
~~If you are using the "Aboutebug" Mode, are you running on Wi-Fi only or are you running 3g?
=> I have WIFI xoom so WIFI only.
(Dolphin/Opera Browsers only) Have you gone in and changed the settings to make it look like a Desktop Browser or are you still allowing it to display as a Android Device?
=> Yes, I am using desktop UA in dolphin as well. I don't see why using mobile UA on the tablet is usefull at all.
When the videos do work, have you tried to clear your Cache and History to keep the information in the buffer low when you are just getting ready to watch videos/just after you are done watching videos? (I ask because I noticed on my Wi-Fi Stock Rooted Rom that if you do not use the Youtube App, it bogs down the Cache and the History just gets cluttered...)
=> Videos ONLY WORK for me at 260p....doesn't matter whether I clear cache or history.
Are you making sure there are not other applications running too and choking out the Browser UI's? (aka, getting a task manager and killing apps before you go into another app)
=> Yes, rebooted and only running browser...tried many many times.

HTC Mozart can't play YouTube in browser

Hi my IE can't play YouTube videos directly from browser all i have i just blank square where the video should be.
I've tried to reinstall YouTube app and I've tried to install HTC YouTube app but nothing works.
I've searched the forum and I've found this http://www.xda-developers.com/windows-mobile/wp7-youtube-plugin-fix/ but links to tutorial are dead.
Any solutions guys ?
Maybe other apps to support YT plugin in IE browser ?
Have you tried by using the mobile site in IE, mine works with the Mango version installed and with the youtube app. The actual application stopped working but the mobile site now works.
Yes I've tried to run it with mobile settings but there was no differene.
I don't want to try reseting factory settings, can't be bothered with setting up everything from scratch ... I guess I'll just wait for official Mango realase from O2 network maybe that will help.

Youtube.com full screen don't work.

When I try to watch videos on the desktop version of Youtube my screen goes black and theres no audio. After that the browser stops loading pages but internet works on other apps. So to make the browser work again I need to reboot the tablet.
Anyone know how I can make desktop Youtube work in full screen? I am using stock browser and I have flash installed on my device.
Thanks

I have that problem whenever I try to go full screen on any flash video. You could try using the youtube app. Instead of rebooting your tablet, you could just go to settings->apps->running (or something like that) and force stop the browser. Doesn't fix your issue, but makes it faster to get the browser working again.

From what I'm reading in the reviews for Chrome Beta, it doesn't have flash support. That is why it goes straight to mobile youtube, even though you have it on desktop mode.

Okay. Hope they fix the stock browser so people can watch flash videos.
Where exactly are the links to the other videos? In the description? Because I can see links on video descriptions on youtube mobile, and I'm able to click on them.

The liks are in the video, not the description. The links only shows on desktop version.
The best thing you could do, until they fix full screen, is use dolphin or Opera browsers and use the large player option in youtube also make sure the video is in the highest quality possible and just zoom in until you are comfortable with the screen.
Ok people I got it to work on Opera Mobile app. Someone posted in the transformerforums, that they unnistalled Flash Player and installed it again and it worked. So I tried this, and I got it working on Opera Mobile full screen. At first when I went into full screen the video image didn't show, so I just changed the video quality and booom the image showed
