OK, I am really enjoying TnT Lite 4.2 as my first Rom mod. However, I am puzzled about why YouTube videos play well in the "stock" browser (called Web), but look and play terrible in Dolphin. Both browsers go to the same link, but the Dolphin version is highly pixelated or sometimes doesn't play at all (they plain won't play in Skyfire). It's not TnT as I had this same problem before modding the Gtab. I am using Flash player 10.1. Whaddya think?
Thanks

Hi Guys,
I have been looking for the Youtube App that I have on my Orbit2, is there a similar app for the x7510 that supports landscape mode ?
if so where can I download this?
Many thanks.
youtube
im looking for it aswell has any one got it (youtube player)
I use Opera 9.5 or Core Player to play youtube videos. I don't know why you would need that "youtube player" thing. I tried that a bout 2 months ago and it was BUGGY as hell. You might end up hard resetting your device. So backup first. Just do a search and you will find the youtube app.
I'm new to this whole experience and so far have had a great ride. The support has been great, all of the time and effort put into creating and making available the fixes and mods is fantastic.
I first got VeganTab to work then installed the flash fix so that I can watch movies on Hulu. With a few hiccups it worked, sort of. Video plays from Hulu and any other flash-enabled site, but no sound. The sound is on and working, I just can't get anything to play from the browser. I own that I am new, but it is not a hardware/system issue. It may be a browser issue, I haven't seen any sound settings in the browser config. I've used Dolphin HD Browser and the stock one with the same results. I've tried viewing videos on youtube, hulu, and speednet. The youtube app plays video with sound correctly.
Dolphin Browser HD was updated to 8.0.0 the other day, and prior to that I was able to visit sites like Twit.tv and ipad.tvcatchup.com and it would ask me which video player I wanted to open the stream with
I would normally pick the stock video player and it would play the stream
Now though, its just asking me to save the stream as a file and if I try to open it with any video player, it says it can not play this type of video
I did manage to get twit.tv to work with MX Video Player after finding a new stream link, but tvcatchup refuses to play
Even if I goto the downloads folder and tell it to open with the stock video player it refuses to work
I can't understand why a browser update would stop a video player working though
Stock .17 ICS
Anyone got any ideas? Ive tried different video players and they all fail to play the stream
cheers
Its one of those dreadful 'features' as I've come to find out, downloading the whole video instead of streaming, but it's broken :/ Should be fixed in the next update. If you managed to get ahold of the 8.0 beta instead of the 8.0 public release it should still work as before, its on the web somewhere I'm sure.

I`ll have a hunt for 8.0 beta thanks
Just worked out that telling stock browser to request desktop site allows streaming to the stock video player again but Dolphin I think downloads the wrong playlist file and subsequently the video player doesn't know what to do with it
EDIT - 8 beta does the same thing
EDIT - Found and installed 7.6.0 and all streams are working again

Hi!
Download Dolphin Browser from Google Play.
and then go to:
dolphin lab - search for it in Google
and download flash player
Set flash player as "always on" in settings of Dolphin Browser and set user agent as PC.
You can also download adblock from Dolphin Lab but in some cases you need to disable it (sidebar) to watch a stream.
Without dolphin browser and flash player I dont have any sound as well:/ Maybe somebody will help with this issue? I would prefer to watch streams without flash player (it "eats" my battery really fast) but without sound I stay with the flash player solution. Soon I will have the Lollipop update and it seems that flashplayer no longer works with Dolphin Brower under Android L.
PS. Im not allowed to post external links (I need at least 10 post on XDA forum) so if you have a problem then send me a message.

Thanks fo
Thanks for your reply.I use android stockbrowser for watching live streaming through flash, but i think the quality of video is better playing it by 3rd party media player.I tested also other media players but unfortunatelly no sound!!!Maybe the fault is hiden not in media players, but somewhere else in the decryption of the audio files.
Background: Purchased MX Player Pro. Watch a lot of video in my mobile web browsers Chrome and Dolphin. Often for work (training). Used to be that in either mobile browser, I would browse to the video and when I told it to play MX Player Pro would be the player in which I watched the video, which is critically important and MX Player has video controls (like swiping to go forward and backward) that the system video player doesn't.
This morning my Galaxy Note 5 from Verizon got an update, update N920VVRU2BPG5. Since then, in both browsers on my phone, the video only play in the craptastic system video player. I've looked for a way to change that default and I do not see any options. Again, what I am trying to do is make it be the way it was, with videos played from either of my mobile web browsers Chrome and Dolphin being launched in MX Player by default, not the system video player it seems to have defaulted back to. (To be clear, we are NOT talking about setting a FILE default).
I don't know that this is considered a bug or not, but it's a giant problem.
What's the solution?
Thanks.
This *may* be a a different kind of thing, I've done some more testing in Dolphin and found that when I enable Dolphin Jetpack for Flash, it goes back to working properly. I'm not sure why, my two conjectures are either:
a) MX Player is not in the mix at ALL, but that the recent update swapped my browsing player from Flash based to HTML5 based, and HTML5 video players do not (possibly) support swipe gestures, or
b) By switching Dolphin Jetpack for Flash on, it enable dolphin to properly router the video playback to the MX Player.
Either way, that seems to be the fix for Dolphin, now I have to see if a similar fix can be applied to Mobile Chrome.
Thanks.

If chrome plays on itself it may not possible. If it's forwarded to stock player it might be different issue raised from Samsung's idiotic implementation of default apps.
FYI, in almost all samsung marshmallow devices if you select a app it's always set as default. Unlike LP there won't be a option to select once. Just go to Application Manager > Select Video (If Stock Player is default). From the "Set Defaults" option "Clear Defaults" & set the App Links to always ask. Now, Chrome will ask again to select. But, keep in mind that when you select the any other app it will be the new default.
It's not possible to intercept a html5 video from a browser. Nowadays most of the browsers are implementing their own mediaplayer based on android mediaplayer API.
