Hey im really new to this but ill give it a try. I did the easy 123 root for my driod 2 on a windows computer. everything went fine but now i can play any videos on it. youtube and internet video doesnt work, i downloaded rockplayer and that makes it so i can play all my mp4 movie files but still i cant seem to find a way to play other videos. can anybody help a noob out and get me out of this video less hell !!
Thanxs
did you install a recovery program like/such as clockworkmod through an app called rom manager? you should always make a back up of your phone before rooting, in case you have any troubles.

Heres the problem, i cant get any of the new roms working right with tcpmp at all. I usually just install the .72 rc1 cab, flv plugin, then video sites and ta da, works perfect. On these new roms (from march to current), if its not cooked in then it aint workin. Im currently using L26's v4 diamond based rom with .81 and all plugins installed and still no deal. Yes ive posted this in his thread but no answer, just it worked for me so it should work for everyone type of response. When i click on a video from video sites, tcpmp starts and displays first frame of clip, i then press play, plays maybe 1-5 seconds of 2-4 minute clips, then get the nasty wait curser of death that will spin all day if i dont hit pause and god forbid it actually load my video, back to step one. I can choos to download the clip and it works after downloading of course but cant get it to play or stream. Im looking for the best rom you guys know of that wont give me this problem because the chef took the time to make tcpmp work and cook it into their rom. Im even at the point where i dont care if i have to pay for a program to get my video site flash videos to work, usually youtube and porn. Thank you guys!
I’m also using L26 V4 with TCPMP 0.81 (will not let me upload TCPMP) and this flash video bundle, no flv plugin and when it loads there is no need to hit play.

What do u mean it wont lt u upload tcpmp? Im also using L26 V4 with .81 installed with 4 plugins that come with it and video sites (im sure the same one u posted but ill try urs) and still having this problem bro. So dang frustrating. I think thats the problem, mine doesnt load, just sits on a picture of the first frame.
Yesterday and today I tried to attach the cab I use and it fails to upload.

Oh. Still no deal my friend. I uninstalled all apps like video sites, tcpmp, etc, then soft reset. I then installed your video sites (which was the exact same one as mine) and just the .81 player cab like u said, then soft reset again. Then went to video sites, clicked on numerous videos from numerous sites, same problem. MAybe 1 out of 15 videos pllay through wit no probs but the ones that play are like 30 second clips. The others just load the first screen or frame and sits there, doesnt play on its own like u said it does after it loads because i dont think my stupid phone loads. I then wait for 10 minutes thinking my phone is loading my 2 minute clip that would only take 2 minutes to download, still nothing, press play and it shows the pause button but doesnt play anything, or plays 1-10 seconds of clip and then the wait cursor pops up, i then try to be patient and let another 10 minutes of wait cursor to spin before i press pause then play again and to my surprise, still nothing and stuck on where it stopped at the first time or better yet, the first frame.
As u can see my frustration im at the point where i dont care if i have to pay top dollar for a 3rd party app that will play any or almost any type of video from video sites or any web site without any of these problems and will work on any 6.0 or 6.1 rom on my tilt. If anyone knows of a program or app with this ability can u please post the name of it so i can purchase or download?
Better yet, anyone know of a recent good om that already has tcpmp cooked in that doesnt have these problems? I would like to stay up to date with the newest builds and roms that are released but will not sacrifice my video sites or internet flash video viewing. Whats the use of a $600 dollar device if it cant even play a damn 2 minute video clip? Ive had better video playback on my $20 razor phone back in the day.
Thank you guys again for helping me out and im sorry, just extremly frustrated!
To be honest with you, i gave up on tcpmp with flash plugin. a lot of the sites dont even work.. it'll give u an error and not even open up tcpmp my advice, is veveo vtap!
its a program that has video search and wikipedia search in one app. it searchs youtube, google video, metacafe and a couple others.
I highly recommend it!
Thanks, ill try it out. FOr now im using skyfire beta to watch flash videos (cant believe its takin this long for a flash based web broswer to finally come out of ppc). WOuld still like to get some input though on if or any apps/programs exist that will stream flash or any type of internet videos similat to tcpmp and will work on any cooked rom? DOnt mind if it costs money as long as it works and is worth the money for my tilt. Thank you!
double check your internet settings...like disable proxy or enable proxy. The AT&T roms got this little thing with the proxys. not sure if its going to work. just a suggestion. and I believe core player has the youtube stuff built in. That player might work.
Try TCPMP recompiled:

It works on most ROMS and it's a little faster
Can someone up the flashlight and something that I can use so that I can stream youtube videos again ?
Also is there nething that I can use 2 make my ringtones louder ? Sometimes I cant hear my phone ring
Anybody ? .....
Anyone ? The most important thing to me is the youtube videos.....I cant play them anymore. It says that an unknown error has occured
what you trying to play them with?
It doesnt matter.....When I first got it I could just click watch video and it would open a program to play it but now it just says unknown error.
I just wanna click watch video and be able to play it
of course it matters, have u rom upgraded in that time, or changed browser?
use youtubeplay
its on xda
just search
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

Hi peeps,
Does anyone know what's the problem with coreplayer 1.2.5 Youtube client when it says Player:youtube://xxxxxxxxx "unknown file format!" when want to play youtube video. WiFi connection no problem as I can search for the videos but can't play.
ight guys im new to the whole "technology" thing. i jus got the vox off ebay and i saw a video on youtube of the phone playn youtube and i want it. i kno u guys are thinkn look at all the otha posts... and ur right i should. the only problem is i dont understand them. they have fancy terms like rom and wut not. it seems i need a flash player and i went to adobe to download flash player 6 but it says that my fone does not support it. any suggestions?
Get CorePlayer - NOT FREE (or maybe TCPMP - free, but not sure if youtube works)
Or get the free Flash Video Bundle, it works with TCPMP! Or use Skyfire and watch the videos (any flash videos) right in the browser!
Hey
There are a few ways to go about this (in order of my preferance):
1.) Use SKYFIRE browser: http://tinyurl.com/comrrk
this is the easiest and best way. skyfire will play videos directly in the browser just like it does on normal computers.
2.) Use VTAP: http://tinyurl.com/brm7t4
with this you can search for videos off a number of sites and watch em.
3.) Use TCPMP media player: tinyurl.com/wafj8 tinyurl.com/dbdyr3
you need to instal both the files there
everyone recommends this but i don't like it at all. everytime you use the player it leaves the backlight on constatnly till u go to the settings again and it would interfere with calls on my phone too; but youll be able to use internet explorer mobile on your phone and go to youtube directly and open videos
Streaming Media
i have one program similar the player of HTC Kaiser.
streaming Media

so i'm not sure if this is a thread yet or not but does anyone on here use icefilms.info? if so is there a way for those of us with rooted inspire 4G's to stream icefilms. it requires the divx player add on (old version of divx player) and icefilms script from user scripts to play on google chrome on my pc. seems like it should be easy for android phones but am a noob and have only just rooted my phone like 2 weeks ago. anyone with any ideas
im wanting to do this too, there is a greasemonkey app that you can get, but i dont think theres a divx webplayer addon
hi guys, Altair from icefilms here...
if you go here, follow this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=899141
then you can. I personally use an app called Vplayer, but YXPlayer works just as well...
if you copy the link to the video on megaupload, and go to the app, you can press the menu button and select input URL and then directly stream the video.
but coincidently im actually here on the forums now to try and get the ball rolling on an official app so... yeah, watch this space.
