having a problem with my You Tube v2.6 app all of the sudden...
The app loads as usual, but when I click a video to watch, the player loads, says its connecting but then gives me an error stating "this video can not be played" It does this with all of the videos....
Any ideas?
TMOusa HD2, Stock Rom
i had some similar issues but when i close all applocations through task manager and it started working.
Thanks for the input. Unfortunately, I don't have any other applications running at the time...

Formatted by SD card, and flashed Infused 1.5.1 (a completely clean install). Installed infused kernel on it (latest) after ROM install.
Everything works, but no video playback at all.
In youtube, every single video tries to load, then shows "There was a problem while playing, touch to retry).
In video player - can't play any videos at all, even those that I shot with the phone. Says "Sorry, this video cannot be played".
I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling youtube app, rebooting (doh)... Nothing helps.
It seems as if all my video codecs are just missing or something..
I do have Flash installed. Music is working fine, rings are working, voice/calling is working. Only videos don't work anywhere.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: 1.5.1 Infusion Kernel does that. Reverting to 1.5.0 fixes the problem.
Moderator, you can close this thread if you wish..

There is no Infused 1.5.1, only 1.5.0.
Do you mean Infusion kernel? If you had bothered to read the kernel thread you'd know that the "speedmod" memory tweaks included in Infusion 1.5.1 caused a LOT of problems including breaking playback, which is why speedmod was reverted almost immediately.
Not sure if this is the same as your problem, but a lot of folks got that error message after installing the official twitter app.
When I used to get that message, videos would work for a little while after booting. After uninstalling twitter, I have had no problems.

Yeah I meant the infusion kernel. You don't have to be so hostile - I didn't read 29 pages of that thread, and local search doesn't work today.
Thank you though, that indeed fixed the problem. I see that he posted a 1.5.0 reverted version, and it does fix the problem.

Thank you, but I never installed twitter app. I did find that it's a potential fix for playback, but not in my case. In my case it was the broken infusion kernel 1.5.1.

Hey guys,
I have the same problem with lg optimus 2x (djdroid 0.8 + swiftextreme).
Try updating the YouTube app to 2.2.16. That fixed everything for my Desire -- used to get "Video could not be played" in the middle of playback.

I have this version but it even won't start the video it reloads and reloads and nothing happens. Any other clue?
Hello,
in the youtube app i can't watch videos.
Error message is : Unable to connect to server Touch to retry
Downloading the videos works though and in the dolphin browser they play too
i am on CM7 - any ideas how to fix this?
thanks for any help
Hello again,
i tried with JackpotClavin's latest ICS ROM and youtube
app is working there if u choose SD versions of video.
Seems to be an issue with CM7 then?
The YouTube app on CM7 with the stock kernel works perfectly for me, and it has for a pretty good while as well, so I don't think it's CM7's fault, or a version issue. Maybe you should try reflashing gapps (is youtube included among those)? Or clearing the app's data/cache on the app management settings menu, then try watching a video again.
Some other questions that might help: Is your internet connection definitely not the issue? Can you play any other streaming content available on the web reliably?
Good luck!
it's working now! had to allow some more processes in
droidwall (media server, google stuff)
by the way it is not part of the gapps it has to be downloaded
from the android market
thanks for the help!
PopUp Player For YouTube allows you to watch videos and use other Android apps at the same time. This app is for users who want to multi-task on their Android devices.
Google Play Store Link

* Video player window hovers above all other running applications and runs in background
* Integrated YouTube video search inside app
* Top Daily Videos search shows the hottest videos updated daily (most used feature currently)
* Open YouTube links from web sites and Google's YouTube App (via Share) (*PopUp Player must be running first)
* Pinch to Re-size Support for adjusting windows (hide and maximize window)
* Video continues playing with screen turned off and lock screen on (useful for jogging and listening to videos)
* Works great on smaller smartphones screens and especially great on Tablets and (Glaxy S3, Note, Note II)
* Windows smoothly transition on landscape to portrait orientation change
* Continuous play mode plays entire search list back to back
* Use 'menu' device button to hide player window quickly
* Starts quicker than the stock YouTube app
Fantastic!

First error message. Installed both apps on my ouya the browser works fine and resizes great but the youtube app isn't able to be resized since their isn't the resize tab on the bottom right. That's not really a big deal but for some reason the app forces a full screen mode and I couldn't get out of it for nothing had to do a reboot and it just kept on playing.
I'm thinking that on normal devices i could use the notification bar to get out of it but the ouya doesn't have a notification bar. I know that you can have shortcut keys to do certain things (saw it in the home sample) like exit or minimize. Thanks for your hard work and the app
just like canvas4 pop-up browser
Doesn't work on my Note 2 running SlimROM. Shame, I'd really like to see this bin action.
Wow, thats pretty brave to try to get this running on OUYA...
Regarding re-sizing, you can use pinch gesture to re-size as needed for Popup Player and Popup Browser ....will look into fixing any other issues you may run into for OUYA...
Awesome app keep the hard work up.
does this work with rooted devices? im getting the error "an error occured while initialzing the YouTube Player" and below that another error saying (SERVICE INVALID)
Good app
I had a dream, that I can block my screen and still be able to hear youtube sound
nice update!

Hello, I have a problem: I have a huawei phone with android version 4.1.2 (there is no custom rom to upgrade it) and when I play some video with vlc 2.0.6 (shown as "dark widget" in task manager), the phone becomes slower even once the video is closed, which makes even the browser annoying to use. It is very likely caused by vlc that is still opened and using 59.8% of the cpu and no task managers are able to kill it so I'm forced to reboot the phone every time and actually if I don't the phone itself will instantly reboot after a few minutes.
So I'm open to any way to solve this, an actual way to kill it, another player that wouldn't have this issue or an updated version of vlc that doesn't have this issue but still works on android 4.1.2. If I need to download something, please give me a link to the apk directly, as I also have the issue with google play that shows "your device is not compatible with this item" for whatever app I try to download, which I don't mind since I very rarely download any new app and it seems to be hard to solve this.
I think you should try installing *mx video player* instead of vlc.

Thank you, it takes a bit longer to open but it doesn't have the problem which also caused the phone to heat a lot, using battery and phone for nothing.
