YouYube app - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm having problems with youtube lately... I have the latest version of the app (it came out today) and it says that can't find the server and the videos don't play.
Any help?

hmm... I haven't had this issue. Try deleting the app and reinstalling it?

[SOLVED] Youtube App can't watch videos

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!

Facebook videos freeze

I'm on ARHD 7.3 and with the latest facebook app version. When I try to play any uploaded video on the facebook app it plays for about 2-3 seconds and freezes for the rest of it while the audio is still going. I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue and what could solve this...
I don't think it was like that before. I think it started since facebook changed their layout again.
Same problem. any fix?
I have the same problem. Also appears on YouTube videos.
Any fixes at the moment?
Any suggestions?
Tried to revert YouTube & Facebook to stock versions, didn't work.

[Q] Shield Tablet - Play Store Video Connection Lost

Whenever I attempt to load a video for an app in the play store I get "Connection to server lost". Its particularly strange because I am able to view movie/tv previews in the play store, youtube, and other streaming video without an issue. The problem seems to be specific to videos for Apps and Games viewed through the play store. Not a huge deal but still kinda annoying. Anyone else seeing this problem?
Btw I applied the OTA and rooted with towelroot.

Yeah I'm having the exact same problem on mine. Good to know it's not just me. Hopefully they fix it soon.
same issue here. the video starts to play after i hit retry a few times. not too concerned with it right now but I'm hoping they fix
I got it too, guess it will be fixed in the next update. New toy, new bugs.
Same issue here as well. I also can't play YouTube videos from within other apps (Tapatalk, Reddit Sync). They give me the same error. I can play them if I open them in the YouTube app though.
Same here.

Youtube app: error press to retry

About 50% of the time this(see screenshot) is what I get when I use the Google youtube app. I can use another app like viral at the same time and play the same video and it always works. So the issue has to be with the youtube app. Any suggestions what I can do to resolve this? It makes the youtube app unusable most of the time.
I already tried it on different networks, clearing data/cache on the app, reinstalling, restarting, relogging. ..
Am I really the only one with this issue?
No you arent. Due to latest cm11 sources yt APP doesnt work with its latest version. Downgrade to 5.1.10 and it works fine
Had that same error also..i just installed older version of youtube app..

Hulu not playing

On my other phones I'm able to play videos thru Hulu just fine. But on the mate 9 it just shows a blank screen forever. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app still doesn't work. It will still let me stream videos to my Chromecast though
I've had exactly the same problems. I've written a comment to the developers through the play store. You should as well. More people that write more likely we get a fix
Hulu works just fine on my Chinese variant 6gb/128. Although I downloaded my hulu through the amazon store. Maybe uninstall the one from play store and try installing the version through the amazon underground app?
I tried downloading thru Amazon app still has the same problem. I'm going to try one more thing tomorrow downloading the app and side loading it. Hopefully that works
