thanks very much

very nice.
I am enjoying streaming goodness.

You have to download Flash in order for it to work.

You can also use vtap.com - has a rich client download that make searching and watching sweet.

I don't care.... whatever.... you the man! THIS WORKED! FINALLY!!!! I have tried 100 different suggestions and NEVER to they work. THIS WORKED FOR MY ATT TILT!
\

add one more happy vtap user to the list. i just decided to try it because of this thread and its pretty cool for what it does. and we have access to all of youtube as opposed to the iPhone users. sure, they may have the better interface, but i'll take the larger library

Vtap is great!! The only problem I have is, on the site, it shows a view of the desired video like the youtube site would show but when inside the application, it only has a decriptions without a picture. Is this how it is for the Tilt version?

This didn't work for me. I followed the steps and it didn't work using IE or Opera on my Tilt.

Me neither. I verified file associations within TCPMP. Notably, there's no 'Video Sites' shortcut in Programs.

Because in ATT ROM, real player is the default player for the PIE and it doesn't support youtube. since i flashed my tilt with HTC stock ROM, the default player is "streaming video" app which plays youtube video with no problem. i think there should be a way to change the default player in registery.

hm vtap is nice if it has what you are looking for, but i just did a search for a video that i had uploaded to youtube and it did not find it.

Just go to youtube.com on your cell, it will open "mobile youtube."
on the bottom of the page, click "classic view"
once there it should work with tcmd...

I installed the cab from this thread on my tilt and it worked. I can now stream videos from the m.youtube.com site.
Here is the thread

You're all forgetting to add that it also picks up videos from other sites, like MetaCafe, Google and Yahoo! Video and many others. Plus Wikipedia on the vTap just murks (that's "murder" for the ones not in the know) every other application or dictionary that tries to give us a mobile version of it on WM phones.
But the good thing is that the FlashVideoBundle works well also, just in case you prefered not to use a separate application...

i have vtap installed but i rather use regular youtube.
vtap and mtube lower the quality of the videos

can someone pls post the vFlashVideoBundle.CAB in this thread so I dont have to reg at that site. thanks!

YOUTUBE is not working on HTC TYTN II anymore....

Hi All,
I have been using YOUTUBE on my HTC TYTN II since last two months through FlashVideoBundle.CAB and TCMP and it was working flawlessly until I checked yesterday.
Now I am not able to see any videos on www.ytpocket.com and moreover when I go to main www.youtube.com and click on a video and say either save or play it shows me error message “youtube swf args not found”.
Please help me to sort out this problem.
Thanks.
Download the new flashbundle from this thread m8.
Be sure to uninstall the old one before you install the new one.

Hi, Thanks for prompt reply....
Are you sure it will not screw any existing applications as i was able to stream youtube before and apart from youtube i am still able to stream videos from other websites like goggle videos, VEOH videos, DIVX STAGE6 videos etc...
It is just a concern.....
Thanks for your help
Not sure about that, guess you'll just have to try and find out.
Just out of curiosity, how do you stream vids from stage6? Is there a plugin or a certain player for that?

I use TCMP and FlashVideoBundle for Stage 6, Just you need to associate divx files with TCMP.
Just as additional information, in the event that someone had the same problem as me.
I had problems through wifi where it failed to connect.
The phone had defaulted to trying to connect through "My ISP" in the streaming media app options. To get it working through wifi, just change the option to connect through "The Internet" and it goes for the wifi rather than the phone network (which I have disabled with Modaco".
I just tried m.youtube.com and everything works as usual. I use HTC Streaming Media, it intergrates with browser perfectly. You can find a cab floating somewhere on the forum.
Sorry to hijack the thread man, but I thought it might be better not to open a new one for a very similar problem.
I had to hard reset my device yesterday and then I've installed everything back.
Now youtube doesn't work as it is supposed to. When I'm watching a stream in landscape mode and I want to see it full screen, it rotates back to portrait.
Before the hard reset it was working just fine. What could it be?
Thanks.
The ROMeOS Rom works very well with YouTube. If you want to try it here it is, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406346. It as actually a very good, stable, and fast Rom. It is on the Lite side and an excellent base to add just what you want in your Rom.
hey guys, ive been reading ur treads and everything. i got all necesarry files on my phone to play youtube videos. but, when i enter any of the youtube pages u gave links to. and wanna open a film to se it. i get this message could not find the network.(the film always open in the phones media player)
can this be the problem? i dunno how to fix it. so a little help would be great

vTap

I downloaded vTap and loaded it onto the latest HTC Official WM 6.1 ROM and it closes when you press the play button to start a movie.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
try soft reset after installing...u might have to take the Vtap icon off ur home screen also since it puts it there automatically after install/reset...
i installed it a week ago, ive reset many times since then and removed the today icon right away. There just isn't enough room on the today screen for all this stuff!
Anyways, it just crashes when the video starts to play (I don't get to see any video, it crashes right away)

I know this is specifically for vtap, but you can use other, more reliable, methods to watching youtube or any kind of flash video.
vtap was just too much. Quality wasn't that good either compared to tcpmp.

is there any application that works like vTap? Those 2 links are websites. I like programs more then websites for my Pocket PC because of the screen size and overall speed of programs is just faster then websites.
EDIT: The avot mv thing is an app, but its REALLY choppy and it doesn't preserve the aspect ratio (it stretches the video to fit in the screen), but im guessing the choppiness is thanks to those GREAT drivers from HTC.

the avot mv is a program u download to ur device from tht site its similar to Vtap (i like vTap better tho) and the tcpmp player and bundle are also on the other link so u can go directly to youtube and play from there...ur choice...
I have used TCMP w/ flash plugin and i have vTAP on my kiaser right now and it works great... no issues at all. I like its simplicity of use.
When I use Vtap, the quality of the video is really poor.. is it suppose to be like that?
vtap resolution worthless IMO

Hello. I work for Veveo Inc. who provide the vTap service. We have just released a new version of the client which should greatly improve the video quality when playing Youtube, or Metacafe videos.
You can download the latest client by pointing you browser to www.vtap.com and downloading the client.
Here are some details of what is fixed in this release:
http://forum.vtap.com/index.php?topic=4.0
Once you install the client, you will want to enable the DirectPlay option under Tools/Options/Media
Inorder to enable the direct draw option, you will need to install some additional files on your phone. More detals about this can be found in our FAQ #15 - http://forum.vtap.com/index.php?topic=6.0
Please give this a try, and let me know if you see an improvement.
Thanks!
You could also try the new CorePlayer 1.2.1 which has a Youtube viewer in it.
Is there a thread somewhere with instructions on how to install and configure TCPMP with flash bundle? I have tried getting this working on my Tilt with no success.
I'm going to try out CorePlayer in the meantime. Thanks for the suggestion.

I want to listen to this... How?

I'm going out on a limb here and I'm going to say that you will have to restream it on your own. I couldn't view any html or anything to get the actual streams info. I'm sure there are some people that know this better then me.
Have you tried the CorePlayer?
can someone that has coreplayer mobile please try the link and see if it works before I spend the money since they have no demo. Thanks!

I tried it, and it doesn't work.
I've put it into PIE and it loads the webpage, but it won't stream the media.
I've tried putting the URL directly into Coreplayer and it doesn't play it.

Enter this URL into your Tilt: http://www.thestreamcenter.com/pda/?state=tx
The link to KHKS is about a third of the way down the page. For some reason, it only shows up in a mobile browser.
www.thestreamcenter.com and www.thestreamcenter.com/pda/ are awesome, BTW.

any good tv apps?

im looking for a good tv application for our phones..
anyone got any good suggestions?
TVU-Player for Mobile is okay, if you have HSDPA, otherwise it won't even load. Kinoma Freeplay isn't really tv, but nonetheless it is still entertaining. MobiTV is popular, but never really used it past its free 3 day trial. Hope that helps,
Dave
yeah.. i tried mobi tv... its good any all but too expensive.. there was a unlimited mobitv floating around here somewhere.. but didnt work.. or maybe i just didnt know how to use it..
but other than that.. ill give TVU-Player a shot.. thanks!
I use SPBOnline... Also I had DiamondTV.. The SPB is a better TV program.
DiamondTV is ok, there are lots of XXX in there, hehe...
slingbox mobile is the best way to go expect you need to already have slingbox, in total it would run u like 130 for mobile and slingbox, there are no monthly fees and it streams from ur tv source over the internet i really like using it, if you have parents you could just hook it up at their house and not have to pay for cable cause you can just watch it on ur phone or laptop/computer
Or you could use a website instead of a program. Something like
http://www.todaypda.com/stream/

This is excellent... Thanks for sharing the info. Although not all links do work, but the ones that do stream are perfect. I wish There is an NBA channel that streams live for free though.
Excellent site, Themuzz, thanks!
I'm having much better luck opening the links with Coreplayer than WMP, but I'm not surprised. Hmm... PIE does better at saving my settings than Opera, though I'm not using the latest version(s) floating around here. I'll try them when I have more time.
wow thanks for the share themuzz!!..
i actually tried diamond... over half of the channels dont work.
i would love to try the slingbox... but dont even own a real one so i guess that ones out..
handitv is okay..
im gonna try spbonline next...
thanks for the replys tho guys!
Thank You!

I've always wondered if there was a way to get FREE TV on my Tilt. This is the answer. With all those available channels listed for the US and the search feature, I'm sure I'll find something I'll like to watch. THANK YOU!
you're welcome, I actually set up the website myself. The only problem with the streams is that I can't check mms streams to see if they are working... if the stream streams through http I can check it, but I haven't found something where I can check that much mms streams...
If you have other feedback, it's welcome to.

bumping the message to the top.
Orb.com
You may wish to try orb.com. You need a computer at home with a TV Card, but you can truly get streaming TV with this combination. Throw in a copy of Kinoma Play and you now have a direct connection to your orb server without using a web browser on your phone(not sure if you can change channels with Kinoma Play, as I currently do not have orb controlling my TV card, using GBPVR for my PVR functions, with the files created shared through orb.)

nice site. but i have not found a stream that works yet.
Perhaps I should leave this topic alone, but I found a nice site like http://www.todaypda.com/, namely a mobile website with also streams (which all work), translating, adult content, etc.

What do you think about it?

[APP] New Windows Mobile Youtube CAB included

Just saw on the WMPoweruser.com.
Youtube has created a native Windows Mobile application for displaying their videos on your phone, and its pretty good.
The user interface is attractive and uses fluid animations, and video quality is also very good, and apparently adaptive to the speed of your own connection
To download the app, visit http://m.youtube.com from your device. More cool features and app improvements are on the way, and the app will alert you as updates become available and allow you to upgrade with a single click.
Read more at Youtube here.
edit cab
Sweet, thanks for the heads up! Just installed and its pretty nice. I'm not sure if I like the button layout better than the original raphael youtube app but the transitions are pretty cool.
Pretty sweet. Works quickly and the streams are buffered properly.

Is it better that the native application installed in Touch Diamond/Pro ?
If i install this version, older will delete properly ?
I don't think it's better, I found it to be pretty crappy quality. And I have full 3G where I am.
I get a 403 error when I go to m.youtube.com
I think the youtube mobile site doesnt like PIE 6
Can anyone get a cab up for download?

I found a way around this.
If you are using a ROM with PIE 6 on it, you will need to use Opera to download the app, as YouTube Mobile doesn't recognize PIE 6.
Pop open Opera, and go to opera:config, scroll down to User Prefs and click on it, scroll down to Custom User-Agent and change it to "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; IEMobile 7.11)", scroll down to save and have it.
After that close out of Opera completely and open it back up. Browse to m.youtube.com and you should see the download link right below the search bar.
The default Raphael Opera User Agent should be "HTC-P4600/1.2 Opera/9.50 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)"
weird ... i don't have user prefs in my opera:config
PIE6 worked fine for me as long as I had it set for mobile viewing.
Jeez you guys are difficult.

Truthfully, I like HTC Youtube far better. Google Youtube streams faster (I suspect this is because I have High Quality set on HTC Youtube), but the video lags, and the interface is not as good as HTC's. Google Youtube seems to be more slick, and it does have an internal volume control (something HTC Youtube needs). Still, I just like HTC Youtube a lot more.
Nonetheless, I'm happy that Google is providing support for Windows Mobile now. Hopefully, we'll eventually get a program from Hulu. Once that happens, life is complete.
this is good...an alternative for nonHTC users

I thought so too, but it only overwrites the shortcut. After uninstalling Google YouTube, just follow these few steps to have the original HTC YouTube. Navigate to \Windows\YouTube.exe in file explorer, then click and hold to copy it, and then navigate to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and click and hold to "paste shortcut". That's all there is to it...
And yes, HTC YouTube program seriously trumps the Google YouTube app here. Nice find though!
i really like the HTC youtube App Much better, Except for the Speed Difference. The WinMo App is about 10times faster. But the interface isnt as pretty!
