Apologies in advance if this is in the wrong place, but I cannot seem to download videos from Youtube using the latest Dolphin Browser on my N1.
To clarify, I went to m.youtube.com on WIFI, searched for the video that I want, clicked it, then clicked Download This Video in the pop-up. I then saved the file as video.mp4. However, nothing happens, nothing is added to the download list, and nothing along the lines of video.mp4 appears in Astro.
Anyone can advise on this?
^ does your program have anything to do with Android? I don't think it is what he's asking for
if you want to download youtube, why not use Tube Downloader in the market, it is free
I EVEN CAN'T access to my youtube, i email them [email protected]
and the problem has solved
i use the latest version dolphin browser HD v5.0
i prefer the mini version.
as a beginner, i really appreciate their timely support.

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.
Hi, when I visit xda-developers.com and click a video to watch, I get the page that gives a description and should show the video player after the description. This functions as designed in Google Chrome, but in IE the video window doesn't appear. I've checked all IE settings (reset advanced options, cleared cache/cookies, etc.), I'm running IE10 which is the latest as far as I know, and I'm also running the latest version of the Flash Player (besides, Flash should not be the issue since Chrome works). Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks.

I tried it on the Amazon Fire TV. The app loaded and functioned, just couldnt load a webpage with it. After typing in a web address and pressing enter, it would just return to the app homepage.
Any suggestions?

Very strange... Do you use built-in address bar (shown on top after pressing "back" button) or you use editbox on homepage?
This app comes very close to being what I need.
I have a Mecool M8S Pro+ that I want to use to watch iPlayer on.
I have not had much luck using Kodi, and using any other way requires using a mouse and or keyboard.
So I tried your browser and I was very happy to see that I can now load iPlayer using the remote control!
But... when trying to view anything, there is just a black screen. Now this is something to do with how codecs are implemented in the system, I think.
I also tried different user agents, using the iPad user agent I can load the video, but it is too choppy to be watchable.
Using a user agent which simulates and older android device, iPlayer tries to redirect to a streaming app, BBC media player.
It does it through and address like intent://[appnamehere] but your browser does not seem to support this.
Basically what I am saying is, can you somehow adapt the browser so the engine is like Chrome and or can you add support for intent:// functionality to be able to open installed apps?
Interesting. Will need to check this out now that Puffin Browser is going to paid subscription model.
Installed and like what I see so far, nice recent addition of ad blocking.
Any chance of getting some sort of chrome/firefox extension for pushing tabs from a paired computer?
I installed this app on my Mi Box two months ago, as soon as puffin asked for a subscription.
It was literally perfect, with fluid and fast navigation.
Unfortunately one week ago the app stopped to load my favourite website for streaming, it was so sad.
I searched this on android tv playstore but it's not there so i have to sideload the apk
Does this have an auto update feature? It's not in the play store.

Hi do you think this is related to version 1.5.8 or not?
Thanks for your browser.
Hi there. I'm trying to play video from www.foxplay.com. After the video loads (or seems to load) and I click play, I get this notification: The web page wants to use following resources: android.webkit.resource.PROTECTED_MEDIA_ID.
I click on allow and the time bar starts running, but I got only a black screen without sound.
Is there anything to do on my side, to fix this issue?
The site works ok with firefox for fire tv, in desktop mode, but it is a PIA trying to do anything in that browser without the menu key.
Thanks in advance.
Working with remote, Thanks!
Hello everyone, the browser is great! The only thing I really miss in contrast to the Puffin Browser is the ability to scale down the page size. Is the browser still being actively developed? Is it possible to build in the function?
Works great than other browsers i've tried, very stable. No crashes on my sony bravia. Pointer is smooth. Adblocker needs to me more aggresive. Still getting redirect pages. A dark mode option. And player controls.
Bonjour
pouvez-vous ajouter une option pour le lancement au démarrage ?
c'est vraiment très sympa l'appli
I love TV Bro for the Mi Box.
I wonder if anyone has attempted to add something like UBlock to TV Bro ?
UBlock is brilliant at immediately closing new tabs that are being opened by Advertising sites et al.
UBlock is also open-source (see https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock#ublock-origin ) so I imagine
it would not be too difficult for a telented TV Bro developer to add such a feature to TV Bro......... PLEASE
If such a feature already exists on TV Bro I would be delighted if someone would point me to it

Very good TV-Browser, would be nice if it had a channel on Android TV Start page, could show book marks or history or both (2 Channels).
Hello,
I've been using MX Player Pro for years and often listen to videos with my phone's screen off using the background play functionality. In the most recent update (MX Player Pro 1.46.10) the background play options in the settings were changed to either background play or picture in picture. Once I figured this out and selected background play I was able to listen to videos with the screen off again, however the Picture-in-Picture button no longer works while playing a video. In previous versions when I had background play configured, the PiP button in the on-screen controls during playback still allowed me to use the PiP functionality on the fly.
Can you please fix the PiP button so that it still works even if I have background play configured as the default in the local player settings? Otherwise it seems like the only option is to revert to 1.42.13 and never update the app again.
Thanks!
having the same issue, this on top that since like a year ago, the headset Bluetooth buttons don't work for forwarding or rewinding 5 seconds as it used to (it works only when video is playing in background or PiP) this is extremely frustrating
newest version got it solved.

Gotcha. Sorry, I wasn't aware of the beta program. I'll look forward to its forthcoming release on the Play store.
