The Youtube Apps stopped working on my Nexus One. I have the stock rom. I ask my friend to test his and his does not work either. He is using Cyanogen mod 5.0.5. Is anyone else having a problem using the Youtube App? Is there a fix for this? Thanks.
Works fine here.
Think you could be a little more specific about the issue? Saying it doesn't work doesn't tell us anything at all.

Sorry about that. When I try to view a video with the youtube app it opens, but nothings plays in the beginning. Sometimes the audio plays, but you see no video. If you skip forward, you will see the video stopped and the audio continues to play. I sometimes receive the error message: "Sorry, this video is not available". I have tried this using wifi and 3G with the same result. This also happens to videos I used to be able to play using the browser. Everything worked fine about a week ago. It seemed to just stop working all of a sudden.
Fine here (UK) on Wifi and as a bonus I just watched the chatroulette piano guy that was featured and it is brilliant so thanks for getting me to test so I could see that

in my experience, that happens when the video isn't formated (or format isn't available) for mobile screen/in mobile format/whatever.
nothing is wrong with the youtube app itself.
My problem with the YouTube app is that it often takes 'forever' to start playing the video! In fact, sometimes it will never start.
Somewhat embarassing when my wife's iPhone 3G can get to the same video and play it immediatly....
Have you tried watching in High Quality instead?
I have the same problem but in a different app, Tubedroid where downloaded videos can't be seen even though I can hear it. Turns out I can't download videos in HD, only high quality.

I hate this also. I pretty much gave up on YouTube which is crazy because you would think Google would support their own software the best.
Yeah, on stock youtube takes foorrrrrever to load up a video, even on a wifi connection. Oddly enough, the version that comes with Modaco's Desire ROM loads 'em up right fast. Weird.

I used www.youtube.com/user/GoogleDevelopers
I didn't have errors, but I had audio with no video. However, when I changed the quality to 240p, it started working.
I was making stirfy when the keynote was going on so I went to their site and tried it out. It streamed for the most part just fine. The audio and video were off a bit, and it would cut out for a few seconds at a time every now and then; but strangely it would continue exactly where it stopped, so I didn't actually miss anything during the cuts. So overall it worked reliably.
I was able to watch today.. no problems.. lips were slightly out of sync..
Went between not working at all and severely out of sync (1s+). I've actually been watching the sessions on our dev PlayBook, since it actually has decent Flash support. Better use for it than a paperweight, anyway.
Hello fellow posters,
I am having a very strange problem that shows its ugly head with Napster and Slacker Radio. The song will play for exactly 12 seconds and then stop. The song will then resume again several seconds later. The rest of the song plays fine from that point forward. I find it strange that it happens on both apps at the same exact time (12 seconds). MOG doesn't seem to have this issue.
I have a 4G signal with at least 3 bars when the issue happens. The problem doesn't occur is streaming from WIFI.
Is anybody else having problems with these apps with their G2X?
Thanks for your time,
Lance
I have the same problem. I was running the gingerbread leak thought it was that. So I'm back on stock same problem.

Napster and Slacker Radio
Does anybody have ideas on how to resolve the issue (song stops playing after seconds almost every time. The song then starts playing again after several seconds).
Is it a phone issue since it happens on both Slacker Radio and Napster? Any setting changes that can be done?
Thanks,
Lance
I haven't tried napster, but for slacker, try version 2.1.191. I loaded it with titanium backup. The last couple versions suck, and apparently not just on our phones/roms. The market comments are BAD. lol...
Not sure how to locate it if you don't have a backup. I'll see about getting the apk somewhere.. It was free on the market, so I can't see how it would be "piracy"...
I have the same problem with Slacker, so it's unusable on my G2x. If this isn't fixed sometime soon, I'll be canceling my paid Slacker account.
slacker updated again today. so far so good streaming over 3g
I had to turn on High quality mode in the settings menu, then the song would cache all the way in 3g. If it's in normal quality, they song doesn't cache all the way and will occasionally skip. Wifi works normally.
I've also disabled the local stream manger in slacker as well. Not sure if that has done anything
I tried again with the latest version and disabling the "local media server" option. Already had high quality enabled.
It actually plays music now. Thanks for the tip. Now if we could get music apps not to stutter when the cpu gets used... Sigh. A dual core should NEVER stutter music when multitasking.
Yes it what the "local Media server" not "local stream manager" . Sorry about that; I didn't have my phone on me.
Glad you're working. Not even sure what that feature does.
i deleted slacker. the damn app wants to run for so many actions. check it out using an app like autostarts. it starts running for a ton of different actions,things that don't even make sense.
winamp is almost as bad,but tolerable.

I disabled Local Media Server too (never noticed that option before), and it seems to be working properly for me too. Thanks everyone!
I have Napster and I have the SAME EXACT problem. The only way I got around it was to download the playlists so it wouldn't skip. It's extremely annoying. I've already informed LG about the issue a month or so ago. Its only on Napster tho. Not Rhapsody or Pandora.

This apparently just showed up with the last update (yesterday or today) and fixed my streaming issues in slacker too (only had time for a quick test though)
Has anyone been able to get skype video going on the tab plus?
I had it running once after the initial installation. Now it fails every time i try. What's interesting that the other person cannot initiate video on their side as well, as the video button is greyed out.
Working fine here.
hmmmm
maybe something is wrong with my device then.
I thought it could have something to do with me rooting it, so i flashed it back to the stock rom and that did not help.
basically skype can see the camera, but if i try to initiate it during the call it fails. the camera works otherwise.
I just checked the logs and it states that it cannot find the matching codec for local video stream and that the video controller does not support large surfaces???
Did you try switching to the rear camera ?
P_
The problem could be on their end...
Set up a second skype account and log in from a computer that you know video works... then call your tab from there.
Tried switching the camera and using a different account, but nothing works.
Also tried getting the modified version of skype and forcing the video, still nothing.
Changing the resolution does nothing as well.
If I try to do video call, the video show up initially and when the person picks up, it goes to black screen. I cannot view other person's video as well.
Problem solved, I went and had the Tab replaced ...
Hello All,
I recently upgraded my stock Xoom from HC to JB 4.1 and of course, flash stopped working. I had held off on all updates due to reports of it getting wonky after ICS, but I eventually went ahead when I kept reading of the success of sideloading the latest flash apk and using Dolphin HD or the stock browser.
My problem is, although it does work to a degree, the main reason I need flash is for Amazon prime instant streaming video and many of the network TV sites like abc.com, tnt.com, fox.com and the like. Now when I play video, it works to a degree, but is often too choppy to be watchable. A bigger problem is the audio, although the sound quality is flawless even with choppy video, it is NEVER in synch with the video. The last issue is if I try to watch full screen, the picture blacks out entirely. A minor nidge is that Dolphin keeps disabling flash on its own saying it is no longer supported.
Am I SOL here or is there any help I can hope for?
You can install flash and use the stock browser....flash will work flawlessly. As for the A/V sync issues, not a clue.

it's not flawless if the audio is delayed and it blacks out if you go full screen. Do me the favor and try to watch something on ABC.com on your xoom and report back.Thank you.

Sorry it took so long. Ok i did as you requested. I watched 3 different shows on abc, i had no lag, stutter, echo, choppy-ness, and the audio was in sync.
I would check your flash player settings. Open the Flashplayer app in your app drawer.
• Local Storage: clear data/storage.
• Local Storage: Always Allow, if this setting is currently marked then use "Only From Sites I Visit"
•Peer Assisted Networking: Enabled, if enabled try disabling it and try again.
If any changes made, Force Stop the Flashplayer app and Browser under /settings/app/ and clear cache only on both. Then try watching a show again.
As far as the screen timing out when on full screen; this is a JB issue, as JB technically does not support flash.
I hope this helps.......

Thanks so much for responding. No need to apologize for timing.
Unfortunately, none of these steps have fixed the problem. Strange that it would work on so many stock devices and not mine.
As to the full screen issue, it's not timing out. It just goes all black as soon as you hit the full screen button. The audio keeps playing however. This is true on the stock browser, Dolphin HD, and Firefox.
Thanks for trying. Any other ideas? I'm starting to think My days with my beloved xoom may be coming to a close. I just despise the thought of having to give Apple any $$$.
I recently installed a Nougat ROM (Specifically this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/wip-aosp-nougat-nexus-5-t3446875) and after I did the youtube app has started acting up. Now after about a minute of video playback the video freezes, but the audio keeps playing. This happens for all videos and I can't find a way to make it stop. Before anyone asks...
-Yes, I tried flashing the file from the FAQ section of the post that contained the ROM.
-It isn't an internet problem. I've used the same internet for years and nothing's changed. It's been fine up till now (For reference, I'm getting 8mgps down and 28 up atm)
I use YouTube on my phone a lot, so getting this to work is important to me. Thank you for any help you give and for your time.

I had a similar issue. Try either updating it or downgrading the app. Downgrading worked for me

I tried this. Sadly, it didn't work. I've since switch to AOSPA and everything is fine over there. I'll come back around when this ROM is further developed.
I have the same issue, you could fix it?
