Mine plays fine just watched a few videos in HQ on cellular data, and tried on wi-fi no issues here...
using ultimate 2.2 rom
This really pisses me off. I watch YouTube like all the time. I have a G2 and that has no problems.
G2x just has issues and this YouTube debacle is like the final insult. Browser has stopped forced close on 174 but was forced to stop browser. Its is only two.issues affecting cm 2.3.7
Switched back to nightlies
also Netflix stopped working so went to a backup. No video just audio
miui is a cyan base rom
and the browser version works ok but the youtube app is giving loading issues
so y u just open youtube from browser?easy and same as youtube app
or u can uncheck option that force u to use mobile site
so u can open youtube as desktop site
much better really couse u have all feature of desktop site
full screen
like comments while watching
playlist etc
Yeah my YouTube app takes way to long to load. The browser works fine for me though

Try using the latest cm nightly.
it's the rom.... i also had the issue and i still do even with EB 2.3.5 and as well as the cm7 stabled Gb version.... not only with the youtube app but on some of the websites had flash issues where videos were just green lines. so i switched back to EB 2.3.3 stock Gb version. Devs are working as to finding out the problem but still no luck.
I tried the latest nightly 174 and loaded videos instantly this morning.
Will keep trying the Nightly ROMs. Will report back if I encounter the issue again.
Prefer the Youtube app, just faster.
Youtube and G2X usb mount
I am having these two issues first I noticed that phone is no more recognized by windows as usb and now this youtube issue of CM stable 7.1 , I was really liking this CM. If someone is there reading these and can help please help.
thanks
glad to know its not just me and more about the problem
i really hope this gets fixed soon but was it ever stated as an issue before so others could become more aware and hopefully put it in more demand for a fix or something?
Youtube Slow issue found
What I did I uninstalled both adobe flash player and youtube app and using dolphin web browser for youtube. I tried all those videos again through dolphin and got the instant response on my almost 2mega Byte connection. So, I guess I have to live without youtube app.

Well I recently switched from LG Stock Rom to CM7.1 stable on my P990, and have the same issue. I'm glad that its not just me having slow loading of YouTube videos on the phone. Thanks for sharing the information that the nightly build of CM might help solve the issue. How many others have been successful with that build?
I can confirm that recent nightly builds are no longer causing slow loading of videos in YouTube app. I installed CM7.1 #204
I'm happy

Sorry this video cannot be played problems

Hello xda community!
I have been having a persistant problem with youtube lately with playing videos.
Everytime i go to play one, it gives me this annoying message "Sorry this video cannot be played."
I have tried clearing and resetting my browser, but the problem still persists. The same problem with the youtube app.
If anyone would be kind enough to help me resolve this problem, i would greatly appreciate it!

Custom rom? Fire wall activated? Latest flash players not installed? I have had those issues before that prevented me from using youtube

why dont you just use your youtube app?
I'm experiencing the same problem with the Youtube app.
In addition to that, I can't play any video from my SD card, getting exactly the same error message: "Sorry, this video cannot be played."
I've tried removing the cache used by the Youtube app, which helped in the past to solve some problems, but can't find a solution.
I'm using CM7 for Motorola Milestone.

[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!

youtube stucks at loading video, reflashing doesn't fix

hey. i have a samsung spica, not rooted and 2.1. youtube doesn't load videos even with wi-fi. only says loading video... and wait there forever. i've reflashed rom, installed other versions of youtube for eclair, but nothing fixed my problem. is there anyone who can help me? i'm about to go crazy -.-
It seems like youtube app is the problem. I suppose you can watch youtube videos with the browser. I also used youtube app but was disappointed, right now I'm using TubeMate and it works just fine. You could try it and see if it works for you.
I had similar problem where videos wouldn't play yet the app let me search.
I used titanium backup to uninstall the app. Rebooted then reinstalled it and it worked again.

Can't connect to YouTube videos or Google Voice

Galaxy Note 2 running CyanogenMod 10.1.3 has been working fine for weeks but for the past two days the problem started.
This is really odd because I've made no changes to my device. , but suddenly I cannot connect to Google Voice search, nor can i download and watch any YouTube videos. This doesn't happen intermittently, but of all the times I tried I haven't been able to connect.
I can still visit any other websites and on YouTube the comment section as well as video thumbnails all show up. I tried different WiFi networks the same behavior occurs.
What makes it more strange is that at the same time this occurred, I also started getting similar errors on my other device a Dell Venue 8 Pro. On that device I can watch youtube videos on Firefox browser, but they do not load from internet explorer and I cannot start Google Chrome browser.
My other devices work perfectly fine and have no issues watching YouTube or using Google Voice Search .
