thats not what he means.
you need to find the mp4 link of the youtube video, as mediaelement can only play mp4 and not flv movies.
This probably involves some reverse engineering of how youtube codes its video urls. But there are some tutorials about how to make a youtube player with wp7.
They used direct mp4 links as well.
Good luck.

From what I have tried dice player runs 1080p .mp4 files pretty fine.
But it seems you are trying to play very high bit rate 1080p .mkv/.mp4 files which I guess gets a bit too much for R / most other smart phones to play.
If the above is true then you'll have to convert those videos to a lower bit rate format.
Hope it helps.
But those videos were running on my friends sgs2 properly without Any third party apps
And I have read that sgr supports
Full he playback and now the native player is not able to do so.

becoz our tegra supports 1080 p video playing capabilities.... (as we can play in optimus 2x but only 24 fps)
butt somehow samsung has blocked some of the capabilities of sgr
1080p playback?
So in short we can't play 1080p videos on our SG-R?

We can play them buddy . . . !
I have played some good quality 1080p MP4 videos on my device. Its just that it shouldn't be a very high bitrate. I have yet to try any mkv files though, will try & update here.
Tegra 2 naively supports recording of 1080p videos which had been disabled by Samsung due to some reasons currently not clear.
But they can't block a device which naively supports recording 1080p videos from playing Full HD videos as it depends on which video player you use.
The generic Samsung player doesn't play 1080p videos but Dice player does and its currently free.
Hope this helped.

[Q] HD video playback

Hi, I got te g2x for almost 2 months now, and now I got a hdmi cable and thought about playing some HD and Full HD videos on my TV.
Im my current rom (SINGH-UI) and player (BS-player) only HD .mp4 videos play nice, mkv plays with some problems, and cant play 1080p videos at all.
Anyone know of a good combination of rom+kernel+player that can play 1080p videos? or at least mkv HD?
Thank you very much, and sorry if it has been asked before, I did a search but not found all the answers.

I use MX Player on any ROM I use, no issues. Use software decoding, uncheck deiinterlace, and set CPU to use from default to 2.
Thanks, will try that and edit the results
Also is the pro version worth it?
Edit: Now I can play Mkv perfectly thanks =), but some 720p and 1080p mp4 still gets laggy/desincronized some times.

I don't use pro. The free edition does everything I need from a video player. Sometimes just play with the settings and you can get a video to play correctly.
So it's better, same, or worse?
Ahh its definitely better, will play with the settings a bit and see what may chance.
Thanks for the help

YouTube Maximum Playback Resolution

It seems that I can only watch the YouTube videos at a maximum resolution of 720p despite some videos having 1440p or even 1080p. How do I enable this? Thank you.

Maximum playback for YouTube is 1080P because it's a 1080p Display.
Otherwise you can use YouTube Vanced, there you can watch videos in 4k+.

Does not seem to be a common issue.
Check settings on your device related to display, video playing, etc.

why are you so sure that it isn't playing in HDR? I mean it says HD right below the selection
from my knowledge If it's says HDR it's displaying in HDR.
