YouTube uploading

Short and sweet, cant upload to YouTube. I have a video that's 97 megs and it fails every time. I am on wifi....stumped.
you need to keep retrying and itll eventually upload. or you can just upload from a computer which is much quicker and easier.

Thanks. Is this a problem with android overall or the captivate? I came across some droid x post complaining about vids over 100 megs.

This problem is really bugging me too. From what I have read the YouTube app uploader isn't very good and the uploads are something smaller than 720p once they are on YouTube. There is an app by pixelpipe?? that can supposedly keep the upload in 720p but there's something on the EULA about them owning the content and you have to give them your password.
From what I understand about the upload failures (on wifi) it seems to be a twofold problem. YouTube has updated their site twice in recent months which may be creating compatibility problems with the app. Also the youtube's compression and distribution system seems to be in a state of chaos in general.
I haven't seen anything that comes out and says any of this but its what I've been able to piece together.
I'm planning to shoot some vids this weekend so I'll keep looking and post if i find anything out

Well that blows! I wonder if samsung is aware of the problem and working on it. I hate not being able to upload in HD to YouTube.
Probably has to do with the lack of HSUPA
oh, you did say WiFi... never mind

the youtube uploader uploads the full video but it just takes forever to do so. theres an app from pixelpipe that i use from time to time. it uploads the video file in its full resolution too but there isnt a progress bar when its uploading.

Yeah but you have to agree to them owning the content which total BS.
you stole my thread
I just took a 40mb 720p video and have been trying to upload it for maybe 30 min now. It keeps stopping after moving a few % and says will "...retry after 1 minute..." But it only does another few % then stops again.
Terrible. Kinda destroys the whole flow of personal media. I read here that its an app/youtube problem so I hope they update it
WORK AROUND!
So uploading to Qik works very smoothly and fast. So use Qik to upload to Youtube/Facebook!
Basically go to a computer and link your Qik account with Youtube/Facebook. Then log out of the android app and log back in. Now, go to the video you want to upload and hit the upload button. Wait for it to finish upload. NOW hit the Youtube/Facebook button! Tada!! It will send the video to youtube/facebook after its done processing.
Hurrah!! I haven't tried it over 3G but suspect that its not limited. Also currently uploading so I will let everyone know if its HD or not.
Edit: Never mind, not HD :-(

Samsung really needs to fix these things. I mean the gps issue, connecting to enterprise wifi, exchange issues, and YouTube uploads on wifi. Do we have to wait till Froyo for these fixes?

the youtube thing isnt really a samsung issue. ive read that its a problem with all android phones. its the actual youtube app and servers that cause it.

[Q] can't open pictures if send with whatsapp

hai there,
does anybody has the same probleme as me?i cannot open the pictures that been send tot me tru whatsapp..and i cant open "little moevies"from browser?
any idea?
(exuse my bad english)
I use WhatsApp for the most part of the day, I'm able to open, send and receive pictures and videos. Everything is running ok.
Try reinstalling the app... who knows?
i tried that,no differenceso i thought maybe i have to do a batterypull..
but i cant open de cover..tried it for 30 minutes..
have you seen in the manual how to open the cover? you need to push it with both your thumbs.
anyway, i'd try uninstalling and deleting all the cache you have from whatsapp of your SD card... then do a clean install and see if it's working.

Hold the phone face down on your palm, with the keyboard on your fingers. Now with your other hand, press the bottom of your palm on the battery cover, press hard and push upwards to remove the cover.
try factory reset next... xD
thank you,i've managed to get it open,en did a batterypull,didn't change anything..i think i have a early edition of this phonebecause i cant find many apps in market,like whatsapp,angrybirds.. also my battery sucks
when i charge all night til morning,and just drink coffee its already at 80%..i have the appclose app..removed facebookchat,disabled a view things reccomended...but nothing changes..i hope you all understand me,my english is very poor

I don't know why the battery for some people is so bad. I have the phone as-is, using with Facebook chat, Google account configured and automatic sync. My battery lasts 24 hours, always. I don't installed too many apps, just Skype, WhatsApp, Evernote, Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, Tune In Radio and Foursquare... maybe the case is some apps you are using?
I know that the Android market limits some apps depending on where you are based. Like we're usually unable to see the apps launched in Japan. For that there is a specific app/customization that I've read about a few months ago. Unfortunately I don't remember right now, but some Google should do it.
- Also, have you seen WhatsApp and Angry Birds on the market with other Android phones, in the same location? If yes, then we have to investigate the problem.
Alternatively, you may try downloading your apps using the web version of android market. You just have to login with the same Google Account you used on your phone and click to install on your web browser. The download and installation will happen automagically.
Curiosity: how can you say you can't see WhatsApp on your market if you're complaining about WhatsApp pictures in the first post?
was it something call market enabler? hmmm...
haii,
I dowloaded whatsapp tru the site..not tru market..
with other phones i always could use it,en it was in market..strange:$
i did a factory reset..didn't help with the pictures..i only installed whatsapp,en flashplayer..and appcloser..nothing else..
when i go to the online version of market,it say i have a samsung phone,and i cant change that.. before i had a bb 9780,and would like tot have android.thats why i bought this phone..
maybe i just have tot accept that this phone is not what i hoped it would be
but thanks for your reply

Super video floating video issues

Is anyone having issues with this app. I am getting constant error everytime I try to play a video. Not sure if the new YouTube update or the app update caused issues..
Just wondering if others are seeing this. I emailed the dev but have not heard back yet.

I sometimes get that , certain youtube videos not playing, i always assumed it was some sort of license/drm bollocks, as they worked on the browser no problem, but the vie3os i try playing that doesnt recieve an error message still play for me, although im noticing a performance decline,.
Ive updated the app itself about twice now with the performance decline still there, but not sure if thats the cause in my case, as ive also recently started somewhat tweaking my tab i.e. rooting, droidwall, disabling apps.........thats pretty much it at the moment, dont suppose you've been doing any of these things recently, just to rule it out?
Im also noticing that the stock browser isnt loading pages as quickly as it used to(sometimes it does, sometimes it hangs for a bit), but that may be a seperate issue, which may just affect my particular setup, but worth asking again, to rule things out
Gd luck with that either way, and let us know if you find a solution to your particular problem, heres one guy who'd be interested in knowing if there is a fix for that
Thanks for the reply.
I am completely stock and dont have the pulled OTA either.
The super video has been working fine for the the month that i had it never once getting an error for any youtube vids. I havent use it for a few days and than today i noticed an error when trying to use it. I know it just updated the app and youtube app. not sure if that caused it. But ant be a coincidense. i even went back to play vids i played before on it from links and they dont work. but if you open the super video app i can play the couple short test vids i did with the note that are stored on the note.
no issues with the stock browser.

Thanks for the feedback on the stock browser, i guess thats something i need to figure out on my particular setup, gonna wait for jellybean and see if a wipe and factory reset fixes things, before instaling apps and light tweaking, hopefully point me in the right direction to the culprit

I had a friend with a similar issue - I turned him on to HideNinja VPN and it helped him. It's the only thing I can think of that may help. I'd suggest closing all tabs for all browsers. Delete the browsers you can that you don't prefer to use. Restart the device, install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cryptninja.vpn make sure the app is configured and running properly, then try running your browser. Make sure no alternate settings in your browser could be created jumbling or smashing. Give the "Desktop Version" of the site a try too.

Ok, about chrome i found out that cyanogenmod's browser is ten times faster!!! And for the ADS i wasn't aware that those were intrusive ADS(i thought that the option block popup was broken XD ), so i want to recommend all of you to do this http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/blocking-ads-in-android/ scroll down a bit and you'll find a tutorial to create an host file, normal ads aren't blocked but the intrusives one i noticed that this little file blocks them very well

[Completed] Verizon HTC One M8 Media Playback Issue

So a few days ago something very weird happened to my phone. I opened up YouTube to listen to some music while on the bus and got a weird error saying "There was a problem playing, tap to try again". So I tapped and the same error came up. I gave up and went to my Google play music app and found that no music will play. Later I went on Baconreader, Snapchat, and Facebook where I can't watch videos and can't take videos on Snapchat. I can take pictures on Snapchat but not videos. When I click on a story the story closed as if I quick tapped to skip the video. Also if anyone calls me I can't hear them talk, I'm not sure if they can hear me though. So far I tried updating my software which I have been avoiding for about a week, no solution. I tried clearing my entire cache, didn't fix it. I really really really don't want to restore my phone because I really hate doing that and having to deal with it. And so far Google hasnt been much help. Can anyone give any insight to what's happening here? Also, the phone is not rooted and no custom roms, stock.
