[Q] Why Youtube app won't play videos? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I open a video in Youtube, all I get is an error saying something like: "There has been a problem with reproduction. Touch to try again." When I touch it I get the same error.
What is causing this and how can I fix it? I really don't like watching Youtube videos over the browser since it can be slower in HD.

are you stock?

Is a wildfire?
Because with wildfire there are some problems with youtube playing in 2.2
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?

Youtube.com full screen don't work.

When I try to watch videos on the desktop version of Youtube my screen goes black and theres no audio. After that the browser stops loading pages but internet works on other apps. So to make the browser work again I need to reboot the tablet.
Anyone know how I can make desktop Youtube work in full screen? I am using stock browser and I have flash installed on my device.
Thanks

I have that problem whenever I try to go full screen on any flash video. You could try using the youtube app. Instead of rebooting your tablet, you could just go to settings->apps->running (or something like that) and force stop the browser. Doesn't fix your issue, but makes it faster to get the browser working again.

From what I'm reading in the reviews for Chrome Beta, it doesn't have flash support. That is why it goes straight to mobile youtube, even though you have it on desktop mode.

Okay. Hope they fix the stock browser so people can watch flash videos.
Where exactly are the links to the other videos? In the description? Because I can see links on video descriptions on youtube mobile, and I'm able to click on them.

The liks are in the video, not the description. The links only shows on desktop version.
The best thing you could do, until they fix full screen, is use dolphin or Opera browsers and use the large player option in youtube also make sure the video is in the highest quality possible and just zoom in until you are comfortable with the screen.
Ok people I got it to work on Opera Mobile app. Someone posted in the transformerforums, that they unnistalled Flash Player and installed it again and it worked. So I tried this, and I got it working on Opera Mobile full screen. At first when I went into full screen the video image didn't show, so I just changed the video quality and booom the image showed

Let's see if this helps - go into Settings -> Applications ->All tab
Scroll down to YouTube - tap it. If running, Force Stop - then Clear data - then Clear cache.
Next - relaunch YouTube - and report back if this fixed anything or not.
Cheers..

so bad, it's still showing black screen.
It's weird that it still play audio from that video.
If I watch Youtube from the default Browser the video played fine.
Thanks for the advice anyway. Any more advice?

Instagram, Vine, Gallery Videos and others LAG!

Does anyone notice this;
(I've also tested this with my friends OnePlus One, manufacturers dates are about 1 month apart)
With instagram videos, vine videos, gallery videos, etc.. When I play them and then pause, I notice when I play it again it lags and the audio countinues to play but the video just stops unless I keep playing/pausing back and forth till the video resumes again. Don't know what this is buts its really annoying. Googled the answer for this and it seems no one has this issue.. I've tried several roms including CM11s gives me the same issue. Any solution or fix?
I think it has to do more with the app loading the video than the phone itself. I don't have issues playing videos in my gallery, but on Instagram and Vine, even Snapchat sometime lag.

does it constantly lag?
Nexii said:

Yes. When I play any types of videos and pause them I get a lag (video frozen but audio countinues to play) when I press play again. Sometimes it will lag for 2-3s then continue to play.
Wipe the cache on the gallery, vine, and instagram.
You PM'd me about this earlier. I don't use Instagram, Vine, or Gallery Videos (I use Gallery but I don't notice any lag in videos, I rarely ever use it though).
Some suggestions,
- Have you tried? http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/themes-apps/mod-smooth-scrolling-mod-mahdi-rom-t2840934
- Have you tried any custom kernels? If so, which ones?
- Are these fresh installations of Vine/Instagram/etc? Or are they backups from prior phones. If they're not fresh installations, try @Nexii's tip. If it continues to proceed, reinstall the app.

Same thing happens to me. Happens mainly on Instagram.
Like I might replay a video and the beginning of the video freezes but the audio continues to play. It has done this one every ROM I've used on the OnePlus One. May be hardware related.
i just played a few videos and have no lag running cm11s.

I'm starting to believe that too as my other friend is not affected by this.
It's not hardware. Hardware wouldn't make your videos lag. It's software and is caused by your set up. Take a video of the lag if you must demonstrate it.

I'm having the same problem through Windows.But downloading the video to my note 2 is no problem. No Xposed or Art enabled. I tried ART aswell same issue..
Restored it to latest CM11s thus removing custom recovery, root etc and still same problem
No lag on my i9505.

Update;
I flashed the XNPH25R and went on with the phone, the phone did not have any of that absurd lag..
After flashing the next update in sequence, XNPH30O, the lag exists. Maybe related to the firmware updating from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4
