I was trying to open with Opera, IE, WMP. Don't really know which application I need to watch it...I believe there is a simple answer for the question. But, I just don't know it...
So, no1 knows?

Have you read this?
it seems that all the solutions there are for downloading, converting and then watching. But I need it to work on-fly, without downloading, the way we watch it on our PCs.
Now Windows Mobile Phones Can, so why can't we?
I know I'm getting sick of seeing those stupid Verizon adds for the EnV that shows the huge YouTube logo on the screen, and wondering why my WM phone can't. I know my phone can do hundreds, if not thousands of things, that the EnV can't, but as long as there is ONE thing that a non WM phone can do that mine can't, I feel like less of a man. Where do I sign up mfrazz's 12 step program?
and is there any way to watch p2p tv on ppc like on pc?

why it keeps asking for java or flashplayer (under wm6)?
does anyone know how to format the window so that I can watch the whole video (on youtube) using Opera?
Orb Lets You Play YouTube on Your PPC
I use a program called Orb to play YouTube on my PPC. It loads on your home PC, then you use any PPC browser to access it. It's pretty dang sweet. I have had hardly any problems with it.
orb.com
Well, there are a lot of ways to watch you tube video offline on your PPC. For example, you can just download a youtube video using youtube grabber on your PC then convert it to avi using some endcoder, and then watch it with TCMP or Core PLayer.
However, the main point of the thread is to get a way of watching youtube video on-fly being online with you PPC.
So, far the best way of doing that is using new Opera. However, it's not a perfect way
orb is the way to go. orb does it on the fly also. check it out.

It really is. The only problem I found about it is that the PC must always run the application and be online to be able to watch video from PPC, which is sometimes a problem for me. The rest is awsome.
the other nice thing is you can also view your webcam anytime also. I use it for sucurity purposes . very nice feature.

I think downloads are the only way to watch you tube videos. Try this site: mymobileclips.com, free registration, specify the format you want your videos, and you can get Google, Myspace, Ifilm, Dailymotion, Break, Metacafe, too.
I personally believe ORB is by fair the best thing to cross streaming\PPC lines...I have absolutely no problem watching youtube on my PPC using orb, and talk about an iPhone?? Who needs that when you have an 250 gig hdd with movies, music, pictures, and then are able to watch your local cable service thats at home while your out and about on a lunch break, and then to be able to access your PC and browse and download files from anywhere............ORB IS GOD when it comes to media and mobile devices....not to mention to gain access on my xbox 360 using orb as well without switching my external from device to device, and not using the lame media center....orbs great....just thought id mention it.

I've been trying orb and im a bit new to it. But from my understanding, orb will only work if you pre-selected the videos on your PC first right?
Is there any way to watch ANY youtube video? For example if you searched for one and want to watch it, you cant use the standard browser to see it. How does orb come into play for watching videos on demand? Will it only allow us to see videos that we have pre-added on our pc with the orb plugin?

Orb defines videos, pics, audio, files, etc defined in a specifc folder....when you setup orb it then scans the folders to save the content locations onto the orb server, so what ever you put in a specified folder, orb will pull it in for you.
With youtube, just download the plugin on orbs website for IE, install.....then login into orb on your ppc.....go to videos....then it comes up with an search for youtube....google...yahoo...etc, type in what you want to search, it then show it infront of you, click what you want to watch, then click play stream.
No pre-added video for youtube, just an search as if you were at your desktop.
I want to put some ripped CDs onto my Fuze and have them show in the Touchflo interface BUT when I put it on my SD card, it doesn't show. Is there a good media managing program, or some trick to doing this?
EDIT: Screw my earlier question. I just realized that the Fuze is recognizing and playing my Zune Pass subscription music. Unlimited music. Sweet.
I think it has to go into a folder called My Music, which is within another folder called My Documents, before it will be seen properly, that is where mine is and it works great.
Right... But here's where the problem lies...
I'm talking about the SD card. Those folders don't exist. Do I just make them?
Hey Johndango, i am very interested in getting my Zune Pass working on my Fuze also. Could you tell me which rom you are running on your phone, and if you did anything special in order to make it work.
Hi,
I'm in the process of building a Server, and I still haven't decided which OS to choose. My main concern is the compatibility with my Windows Phone 7 (Htc Mozart).
These are my options:
-Windows Server 2008 R2 (Free, as I'm a student)
-Windows Home Server 2011 (Dirt cheap nowadays)
The problem is, I can't seem to find a way to access not only my media, but also my Documents on my phone.
Ideally, what I would want is a Server that would stream my Music & Video directly into my Zune Hub, show my Pictures into my Pictures Hub, and let me see my Word/Excel/PPT/PDF files on my Office Hub.
What is the best way to do this?
WHS 2011 has a connector for Music, Videos & Pictures, but nothing for documents. On the other hand, WS2008R2 has no connector, but I can install Sharepoint and have my Documents on my phone.
Phone is running Mango (Skydrive's working fine, but I want more than 25GB, and I want control over my HDD's)
(Please disregard local LAN streaming, either of the two servers can do this perfectly. The decision will be based solely on the Phone compatibiliy).
For a home server solution you can go with the official WP7 application from MS or a 3rd party one WHS Phone. With the latter I can access txt files (only ones I have to test) which open in IE for some reason. You can try contacting the dev at whsphone.com and see what he has planned for future versions.
I See that he is planning a WHS 2011 version (the current one doesn't satisfy my needs).
Also, it doesn't integrate with Zune or Picture or Office hubs... I might give it a try when it comes out.
There is some integration with the Pictures hub, you can share directly to your home server from there. Hit up the dev and see what he has in store.
I installed TVersity on my WHS2011 and installed MyMedia WP7. Works like a hose, and transcodes .mkv files on the fly.
You're not going to get any app that will integrate the songs and videos into the Zune hub, nor pictures into the Picture hub unless MS does it at the lower level to integrate with WHS. Even their current app can't do it. I wish there was a way too.

I haven't seen anything that will pull down pics into the Pictures hub. All that the MS WHS Phone app will do is allow one to upload a pic to the WHS.
I have been trying to share uploaded videos from my phone to skydrive. I can get it to upload. it uploads to my mobile uploads folder but when i try to get a link to share only pictures in that folder show up and not videos. Does anyone know if this is possible or if I am doing something wrong? How else can we share videos that are too large to email from our phones.
shared folder
how do you even get files to show up in the shared folder on your phone?
i have a samsung focus with mango 7712
why not youtube them ?
directly from phone?
I believe that you tubing it involves emailing to you tube (I could be wrong) so that might not help
so there is no way to share videos if you can't email them?
Have you got the latest Silverlight installed ?
Are the folder permissions on SkyDrive set correctly ?
When I view the link that the "get a link" process generates sometimes I get a Silverlight error but a browser restart fixes it.
What you have explained is how I share vids direct from from phone (since mango) so it does work

Having the same "problem" though probably just not doing something correcly.
The video appears in the Mobile Uploads directory and I can play it back when logged on via a browser.
However the generated shared link when loaded in a browser just shows the standard picture carousel. The video is not an entry.
So how canI share these videos with my friends?
Is there a way to watch videos loaded in SkyDrive on you device?

Yeah you can. You just have to make a folder and if you're using SkyDrive.com, click on the checkbox of that folder and click on the 'Information' tab in the right column. In 'Folder Type' change it from Documents (the default) to Photos.
Now if you go to that folder in the Pictures Hub or the SkyDrive app, you should see the thumbnail for the video. But of course Windows Phone will only play the video files its supports natively, i.e. MP4 files.
Hope this works for you (it works for me!)
Awesome thanks!

Holy crap this is awesome. I have been looking for a way to control what albums / folders show up in the photo hub. This totally does this, along with the playing .mp4 benefit. Thanks!
Awesome sauce! Couldn't get it to work in the Pictures Hub at first, but somehow it did after I refreshed SkyDrive on my browser. Didn't work even after syncing my email and SkyDrive on my phone, or maybe it just happened to refresh on my phone afterwards too.
Edit// Oh right, I did try uploading a picture as well, maybe it refreshed after that.
Can't get it to work. Do you upload using the SkyDrive website or the app that was released last week. I used the app.

[UPDATE: Never mind. I had to restart the Skydrive program on my PC for some reason to get it to start the sync.]
I'm having trouble, too. I'm not sure what the correct sequence is.
I created a folder on my PC in the SkyDrive folder that was created when I installed the "app". Then I put a video file into it. I thought it would sync and create a parallel folder on the Skydrive site. Nothing happened. So I created a folder with the same name on Skydrive. The file from my PC didn't sync. I looked for a way to manually sync on both my PC and Skydrive but couldn't find any.
I also tried to drag my file to Skydrive but it complained it was more than 300k (IIRC).
Please tell me what the correct sequence is to get a new folder created on Skydrive and to sync files from my PC.
D
Only way I can get movies to play is view skydrive through the browser. Vids don't show in my pictures hub and on the skydrive app, it just gives me the vid details when I tap it.
To watch MP4 videos directly from SkyDrive, need right MP4...
Not all MP4 files are created alike, unfortunately.
My old videos are from a (gasp) Palm Pre.
Converted them to Microsoft Zune HD WMV movie format with "Any Video Converter" (freeware), and volia! I can watch them on my phone again (without taking up the space!!!)
For some reason the conversion to some of the other MP4 type files did not work as well as the WMV format for me. I don't pretend to be a videofile, but works well enough. They're not high quality vids in the first place.
Oh, and if you are having trouble with a "new folder" on your SkyDrive folder in your computer showing up online, try refreshing the SkyDrive page, or log/in out. It should pop up.
