Upload large videos to youtube over 4G? - Verizon Droid Charge

Is there a way to upload videos directly to youtube using 4g. My phone insists on waiting for wifi (which is slower than my 4G connection).

Wow, I think I found two workarounds.
1) Upload through QuickPic app (now better than gallery in yet another way).
2) Setup mobile settings in youtube to get an email address you can mail videos to.

Looks like you answered your own question.

Use the YouTube app.
Go to the settings on the app, select "Uploads", and select "On any network".
Then, select the video you want uploaded from within the app by selecting menu, then upload. And that's it, the video will start uploading using your 4G connection.

If you upload a large video (>2GB) you may want to make sure that your account allows large uploads first. I uploaded a high-def movie that was ~3GB only to find out my initial upload was rejected due to size. I had to do something in my Youtube account settings in the desktop version on my computer before being able to upload large files.

Coreplayer 1.2.1 with YOUTUBE on Polaris

hello,
please poste here your feedback about youtube integration with new coreplayer 1.2.1.
for me that's working very well with H263 hight video quality and WIFI connection.
I like it too!!!
You dont have to download every part of movie, that u want to watch and it runs very well!
How are you guys upgrading your version? I am a registered owner however, I did not pay for Handango's re-download service. The Core site does not offer a download of a trial (so I can apply my reg code).
TIA!
Hmmm, I got mine through Mobihand and I got an email from them saying a new version was released. Logging into Mobihand gave me the option to download the update from my My Account page. Handango has something similar I thought. If not, is it OK to post the cab file here?
Is this version able to play .flv files and is the direct connection to youtube without problems ?
Is there any way to improve the quality of the video?

We do not support FLV... what we do is allow you to select the quality of the stream your device can handle based on the available streams hidden (to the public) on YouTube. Essentially YouTube in CorePlayer Mobile or Pro will _ALWAYS_ be better then even YouTube.com because there is no need for:
1) A web browser
2) Adobe Flash

hello,
there is no trial version, you can get it for 25$ at mobihand.com
I've got a fair bit of problems with this Youtube integration. Firstly I get a lot of file cannot be found errors pointing to rtsp://*.3gp links, even though I have the quality set to h264.
With h264 YT-videos I also get a lot of stuttering, particularly if there's a lot of action or detail. Some videos work perfectly. Some only work some of the time, and some are unwatchable. The audio plays, but the video stutters. Yet, it never stops to buffer. Shouldn't it? I can't find any way to make it download some of it before playing either.
What kind of throughput is needed to get these h264-streams smooth? I'm guessing 1Mbit is not enough.
I also did try the medium quality setting, but that was simply unwatchable. Pretty much impossible to make out any detail. Very grainy/blocky. Is this normal?
That aside though, I'm loving the feature, if I can only get it working satisfactory.
Betaboy, any chance Coreplayer can work with Hulu.com?
I've just downloaded CorePlayer v1.2.1 and have been playing around with it. I'm without WiFi at the moment, so I've attempted to play back over 3G, but I just get the download cursor. I'll have to try WiFi when I get home.
Although it has the built in CorePlayer button, is there anyway I could get it to kick off from the YouTube web page ?
The web page link kicks off the HTC Streamign Media app. Do I need to make a .FLV association with Coreplayer ?
Also, I'd be interested to know if it is possible to playback other Web Media Content sites, such as Google Video.
* EDIT *
Ignore this. I just saw the other thread of enabling the .RTP and .RTSP file associations. It seems to direct to CorePlayer now.
But I still haven't been able to view any content over 3G!
you'll have to wait 10-15 seconds until the buffer is filled enough to begin playing...
and the 'TODO' list has been updated in the other thread... i was going through my network related settings in coreplayer and may have found something
Could anyone tell me what shortcut I could use to start Coreplayer straight into YouTube mode ? I'd like to link it to HTC Home or the Cube.
Any ideas ?
Thanks
What do you mean by "youtube mode"?
You can't use coreplayer to browse youtube videos... only to stream them to your PDA...
But if you have a specific address for specific video that's another story... Otherwise youll have to search for the videos through Opera or PIE...
Coreplayer v1.2.1 has a YouTube icon at the bottom righthand corner (next to the Media Library one). By pressing on it, you can browse for videos. It seems as if an online browsing interface is built into Coreplayer v1.2.1 specifically for YouTube.
I'm trying to find a shortcut to go directly to this page.
I've also found that browsing YouTube via Opera does start Coreplayer (by having RTP and RTSP protocols compatible), but the video errors out.
So the only means I have of accessing YouTube content is using that icon from within Coreplayer... Hence I'm seeking a direct shortcut to link in from HTC Cube.

[Q] is youtube blocking 360p and above in browser?

I can view anything at or above 360p from YouTube via default or dolphin browser?
The default YouTube app sucks dong cuz it buffers forever and I can't change quality of video...
If anyone know why I can't choose 360p in browser please let me know.
In the YouTube app there is HD button to switch between SD HD.
If you visit the desktop version of YouTube on the xoom you will have the same options as you would on your computer.
If you don't know how to do that search for about:debug ua string.

I am running desktop UA but YouTube would not play anything above 360p in browser.
Is it only me?
I prefer YouTube in browser than the dumb app.
Same issue here, seems to have just started a couple of days ago as it worked fine before when watching 720p in the browser. Now no videos work in pluse, stock browser or dolphin. Just get "an error, try back later". So then I click to go to the YouTube page for the video and still does not work. The only way to work is to swtich the ua string to android, I use the dolphin toggle extension but it is very annoying to have to do this all the time, I don't want to view mobile site on my tablet. Wtf is Google doing this, why block tablets from seeing HQ video, the main differentiation between their offerings and the ipad.
My guess, something to do with copyright. I personally think that its stupid to block mobile video in the first place.
I have had no issues. 720p plays in browser. Check your settings for playback on the YouTube site. If that don't work. Clear data for browser. That will loose all your bookmarks etc though.

R u using desktop ua or android?
I have no problems with it either way. If its android it just loads the mobile then I click on open desktop site. When on desktop it just goes right to desktop of course. No issues.
Cant watch any videos on the desktop site now.

You should be able to watch 240p
You're right, but that sucks.
Are you guys having the problem with stock Adobe Flash or only the modified version of Adobe Flash for hulu.com support?

Youtube doesn't even play for me with the flash from manta rom...
I have the modified hulu version.
am also using modified hulu version....
In my version of the hulu flash, all I modified was the version number and from Android to Windows so unless youtube now actually verifies the version number along with the version type, that may be the reason. There is a new version of Adobe Flash released yesterday, I will modify it as usual and will report the results here since I can't do much with hex editing as that is the only known hack.

can you post please because I would like to watch YT on my xoom again.
If you all are still having troubles with your Youtube on the Stock Browser, Dolphin, Opera, or Firefox, can you please give me some more details on your settings?
When you say "Desktop Browser" are you refering to www.youtube.com and forcing it to stay that way or is it going to www.youtube.com and then changing to the mobile version, m.youtube.com?
(Only Stock Browser) Have you done the "Aboutebug" (Without quotes) mode and change your browser to LOOK like a desktop UI?
~~If you are using the "Aboutebug" Mode, are you running on Wi-Fi only or are you running 3g?
(Dolphin/Opera Browsers only) Have you gone in and changed the settings to make it look like a Desktop Browser or are you still allowing it to display as a Android Device?
When the videos do work, have you tried to clear your Cache and History to keep the information in the buffer low when you are just getting ready to watch videos/just after you are done watching videos? (I ask because I noticed on my Wi-Fi Stock Rooted Rom that if you do not use the Youtube App, it bogs down the Cache and the History just gets cluttered...)
Are you making sure there are not other applications running too and choking out the Browser UI's? (aka, getting a task manager and killing apps before you go into another app)
I hope to help you out, as well as others in the near future (be it advice or with the same problem) and get this problem resolved!
Thank You for the information in advance! ^_^
Sure,
When you say "Desktop Browser" are you refering to www.youtube.com and forcing it to stay that way or is it going to www.youtube.com and then changing to the mobile version, m.youtube.com?
=> No, I'm using desktop UA string so it is always www.youtube.com. I have to manually go to m.youtube.com.
(Only Stock Browser) Have you done the "Aboutebug" (Without quotes) mode and change your browser to LOOK like a desktop UI?
~~If you are using the "Aboutebug" Mode, are you running on Wi-Fi only or are you running 3g?
=> I have WIFI xoom so WIFI only.
(Dolphin/Opera Browsers only) Have you gone in and changed the settings to make it look like a Desktop Browser or are you still allowing it to display as a Android Device?
=> Yes, I am using desktop UA in dolphin as well. I don't see why using mobile UA on the tablet is usefull at all.
When the videos do work, have you tried to clear your Cache and History to keep the information in the buffer low when you are just getting ready to watch videos/just after you are done watching videos? (I ask because I noticed on my Wi-Fi Stock Rooted Rom that if you do not use the Youtube App, it bogs down the Cache and the History just gets cluttered...)
=> Videos ONLY WORK for me at 260p....doesn't matter whether I clear cache or history.
Are you making sure there are not other applications running too and choking out the Browser UI's? (aka, getting a task manager and killing apps before you go into another app)
=> Yes, rebooted and only running browser...tried many many times.

[Discussion] App Ideas

So I wasn't sure if this was the right place for this so if a mod needs to move it feel free and thanks ahead of time.
So my idea here is to make a list of realistic apps that Devs (perhaps new app creators) might make. Discuss the possible usage of the app and ways of making it work.
So I have 3 ideas:
1 - a way to send links to your comp from your phone without having an extension (instead have like a .net receiving server that will open it in your preferred web browser)
2 - Send page/link from phone (& if possible comp, but phone would be best) to tablet.
3 - a video catcher. When you stream a video it asks which app do you want to use to play it and instead of streaming you choose this app and download it.
(1 & 2 might be able to be combined)

I recently thought of another good idea
For the Facebook power user that has a lot of friends... a way to fetch all friends and there most recent post only and display them in a vertical linear timeline or alphabetical with "like" & "comment" button. And then you can click or hover over 1 friend and see their last 5 or 10 updates with the same buttons.
Also maybe a similar setup for G+, Twitter, or another social media.
Another big step would maybe be a merger of all 3 and if a friend is on more than one you could link them.....
Just an idea that I thought I'd share, I know I would love for this to be a reality as I'm sure others would too.

I like the video download/stream option application, it should be based on decoding flash and catching flv or mp4 (not youtube).

That's a good idea, just one Q. Do you mean catch from an embedded flash/HTML5 player?
I was talking about sites that below the embed have a mobile stream option or when you click a link and and it opens the "play with" option text.
Catch from an embedded format like flowplayer or MegaVideo would require the app to be an integrated browser/plugin and share the page to (or just an addon for like dolphin). If FF mobile worked the way it said yoi could just install a plugin like downthemall or something similar made for your PC/Unix machine and do it that way...
Thoughts?

Cannot upload videos to Dropbox... no matter what.

My Dropbox account seems to be set up just fine. I've uploaded from my phone photos, PDFs and text files with no problems. But I cannot upload the MP4 video files shot with my phone. When I go to select Share, then Dropbox, then I select which Dropbox folder, it says it's uploading to Dropbox, then the screen reverts and that's the last I hear of it. The videos never end up in Dropbox.
I've tried with WIFI and 3G/4G connections. I've tried uploading into various folders within Dropbox. Nothing works. Any ideas?
how many mb's are your videos. they can take awhile. do you have dropbox on your pc. if so, open the icon in your bottom task bar and see if it says "pause syncing". that would at least tell you it is up loading. i did a movie and it took about 2-3hrs on wifi, don't remember exactly, but "pause syncing" was always on till it uploaded. since yours are only phone videos would think they would be done in 10 to 20 minutes.
also check your db settings, there is one that says don't upload over 25mb unless on wifi. but, since you said you tried both, not sure that would be issue either--
ken
Thank you Ken. I tried again with a smaller video and it worked. I'm not sure what the size limit is. But as far as I can tell, large videos do not take a long time to upload; they are simply not uploaded at all. It would be nice if Dropbox would include a warning or notice if the file is too large.
yeah, not sure of their limit
but my movie was 1.3gb
good luck

[Q] upload to youtube?

I am having a terrible time trying to upload some videos to YouTube. I took some videos with my point and shoot camera and using a Otg cable and a card reader transferred the videos to the existing "Movies" directory on the "device storage". I can watch the videos on each tablet, but cannot get them to YouTube. If I use dolphin browser and the YouTube Web page I can get as far as choosing the video in the directory but then dolphin browser crashes just as the upload starts. Chrome and Opera Mini do not even give any sort of option to use the Web page to upload a video. If I use the YouTube app to upload I cannot navigate t the folder that contains the videos I want to upload. This seems completely absurd for it to be this difficult to upload to YouTube. I feel like I must be missing something. When I had a ipod touch it was absurdly easy to upload to YouTube. Any suggestions? There must be a way....
Open the files explorer of your choice (Stock, ES, whatever), select the file > share > Youtube...

I tried that, but nothing happens. It never uploads. I use ES File Explorer. The first time I tried that it looked like YouTube tried to start and didn't, subsequent tries did nothing at all
Astro File Manager worked for 2 videos
I installed Astro File Manager and that worked for two videos by long pressing the file > share > YouTube. Now it either opens the upload window very briefly and then it shuts, or nothing at all. All of these videos are in the Download folder of the device. I have tried moving them to different folders and to the external card. Any more suggestions out there? This is pretty infuriating that it is so hard to UL these videos.
Why can't you just log in to Youtube with a browser then upload the normal way instead of trying the share option?

OP already noted in the original post that he tried using various browsers. If you know from experience that it works on the tablet perhaps you can post a walktrhu?
At the moment the only advice I can give the OP is to verify the version of Youtube installed on the tablet and try again OR try to do the upload using a computer to confirm the issue isn't with the account itself.
I have also found that the ES file manager chokes on trying to upload a video to Youtube. I have been successful using Chrome and logging on to Youtube. Make sure you have enabled javascript and cookies in the Advanced, Site settings in Chrome settings. I use the Chrome 'desktop view'. I absolutely hate the mobile view on this large screen tablet and have not been able to transfer a video in that view yet.
I could not transfer a video from Dropbox to Youtube either.
Dolphin browser does not transfer vids to Youtube for me either.
I have not tried Firefox yet.

Hi, videos are transferred successfully to Youtube through Dolphin on my phone. You can update it to the latest version and check it out, or just consult Dolphin's support team about it by sending an email to [email protected].
