So i installed the new Youtube java app on my tilt and i can get it to load up but when you try to watch a video it says "This phone can't stream videos". Heres the url to download it:
http://www.google.com/m/download/youtube/download?make=Nokia&model=N95&ver=v1.0.1
Maybe someone can get it to work.
p.s. i know its not meant for our phone.
I guess - YouTube will release the version for WM also
no there is no direct link right about now u have to ues the player and the buddle
why don't u just use vtap...??
much easier....
does vtap view youtube videos? whats the difference between vtap, youtube. java?

I've tested vtap some time ago. It has downloaded 2MB of data without displaying anything. Maybe other people don't have this problem, but I don't want to test this buggy app anymore.
For Youtube you don't need anything. Just visit http://m.youtube.com/ and watch the videos. The Kaiser (at least the TyTN II) has a stream player built in, which plays the videos very good.

vTap is a fantastic program!!! I have it on all my PPC's. Just like all programs there is a problem EVERY now and than, but overall it's a very solid (and free) program....
m.youtube.com does not have every youtube video. It's only the most popular ones. vTap has ALL youtube vidz streamed directly from tha web.....
If you want a service LIKE m.youtube.com go to ytpocket.com. You need to install TCPMP with tha plugin (which is at ytpocket.com )....
And are you SURE that m.youtube.com uses tha Streaming Media player? I haven't used it since it first came out, but I don't remember needing any programs.....

Tell me? Why would I suggest a program in a thread about playing youtube videos..... which doesn't play youtube videos?
Yes, it plays yt videos along with Google Video and other webclip sites. It also has a search engine for wikipedia....
vtap is program. youtube is a site which plays webclips. Java does not come into play in this at all. Most stuff on a PPC does not require Java because it has an operating system....
Any more questions....??

If you are using GPRS/EDGE or UMTS without a flatrate m.youtube.com is the better way because there the vids are optimised for mobile devices. Of course the quality isn't very good, but not everybody is using WIFI.

Hey thanks for that. Just tried vtap and it's very well designed. Video quality does not seem optimized for high bandwidth/HSDPA but it's not too bad either.
Spoke too soon, just found the quality settings. Sweet!
Interesting about vtap
Is this a standalone application? or is it a web browser plugin?
Is this 3GP or FLV player? or both?
After you have installed, when you browse to YouTube mobile with your web browser and play it. Will the video be picked up by vtap automatically? Or is it still picked up by the HTC Streaming Media?
Last question, is it working with Wi-Fi as well?
Sorry for asking a lot of questions, not much info from the website.

Stand alone.
Far as I know you cant use it to play files Dled to your storage. Try TCPMP for that kind of thing (with the flv patch of course).
No you have to search for the video itself.
Works great with wifi
Is it possible to watch youtube videos on my tilt? i go to youtube.com and click on a vid and it says file type invalid and it's showing real player as the program to play the video, i downloaded TCPMP, went through all the instructions to get it set up correctly, but still the same thing, is real player the default program? if so how do i change that? so windows media or TCPMP is the correct one? thanks
Either get vTap (google it) or HTC Streaming Media. It has been posted here before very recently.

Couldn't i just make TCPMP or windows media player the default player? would that work? if so were do i make either one the default player, i couldn't find it in either program.
The HTC Streaming Media proggy will fix your problem. vTap is a self-contained app that pulls videos off google and youtube. Take yer pick.
just go to www.ytpocket.com it works the best out of all the you tube solutions ive tried
you just need tcpmp and flash bundle. Search on this forum. I've installed them and working youtube and all other flash base website playing fine on my tilt. Just browse through youtube, click on the video, tcpmp just opened by itself and play the video.
Thanks for the help, i've give these ideas a shot.
Tap http://m.youtube.com/ in your mobile browser. Vids will automatically launch in Streaming Media.
Anyone have a link to HTC Streaming Media download? i did a search but didn't see it.

that didn't work for me. Vtap however does work.
ive noticed that no matter what you install youtube will not work on some tilts
now i have the htc media player, i went to youtube.com, which takes me to m.youtube.com and i click on a video to see and it says failed to find network, it brings up the htc player now instead of the real player, but i get the same results and cant watch video, do i need to do anything w/the htc media player settings?

ok, i've tried eveything mentioned here and some things mentioned on other threads and i still cant get youtube to work, the only thing i haven't tried is vtap and the only reason why is because when i go to install it on my TILT, i get an error that says " the file Vtap_pcc" can not be opened. either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of it's componets can not be found.
I deleted it from my tilt and tried it again, i made sure it was from the tilt selection on the vtap site, but still same error, Anyone able to help me with this, i've been working on this issue going on 3 days now.
also the error i'm getting when i go to youtube and click on a video link is "failed to conect to network" it opens up the streaming media player, and after about 5-10 seconds i get that error and it closes out.
did you find the HTC streaming media cab? That's what fixed it for me. vtap also works quite good.
I don't know if you tried the link I put above. Also look at this one: LINK
i used ytpocket on my wizard and now my kaiser. you can stream or download. works perfectly
I have HTC Streaming Media pre-installed on my Vario. I have since installed RealPlayer.
Now when I click on a YouTube video in IE nothing happens.
If I do it in Opera it tries to load the video in RealPlayer and fails with "Request failed".
How can I make the videos load in the HTC Player instead?
Ok I've got a tilt, so I've got the HTC Media player installed and I can now access m.youtube.com with no problems. However I would like to have access to the classic youtube.com however when I click a video it takes me to an error page saying to install flash player etc etc
What's the deal? Did I miss something? I thought the HTC player would handle standard youtube as well
Im on my XDA Stellar and I am connected to the internet via my wireless BT Home Hub router, I'm using IE on my phone and when I visit youtube.com and try to watch a video, it just comes up the Streaming Media and just says "Connecting..." for ages, nothing else comes up. Whats wrong?
install tcpmp and find that flashvideobundle cab around here and reset.use pie to search and start video playback
also give coreplayer a try, it is really easy to use

Can I kick it?
bump...........
Yeah man i never got Youtube to work. I installed TCPMP and flash video, soft reset and nothing. I just use VTap. I can search for videos on youtube and watch them.
Look for VTap
All I do is win
I had the same thing. The streaming media player can't really be trusted for youtube it seems. I found a neat little program on the forum which plays youtube video's very well. It's called "Youtubeplay" and can be found here: LINK. I can now watch youtube in the train
ive tried like 5 different versions tcmpc and youtubeplay and I cant anything to play consistantly. any suggestion ?
What do you mean 'play consistently'? Are you having problems with music playback, or movie playback or both? Or are you having problems playing youtube video's through TCPMP? Perhaps you can elaborate
thanks for replying? Im trying to play a video off of youtube and the first second will start to play, then it will freeze up. If its not possible so be it. I just want to know if this is normal or is there something I can do to fix this
Are you on EDGE or 3g? It could simply be a buffering issue if I'm not mistaken. Have you looked into Coreplayer instead of TCPMP
I'm personally having serious problems playing videos off the non youtube website but can play videos (with lots of pauses for buffering) from the mobile youtube site.
If you're simply trying to play videos from the mobile youtube website, then I suggest you download the FLV plugin for TCPMP and configure your settings correctly. The correct settings can be found on the ytpocket.com website.
I don't know if you have 'flash video bundle' installed which some have said has helped them watch videos straight off youtube. It personally didn't work for me and so I've given up, but try viewing threads detailing issues simmilar to yours.
Flash Video Bundle

Edited to add: Coreplayer can only be purchased, it's not a freebee like TCPMP
well most of the time the phone displays HSDPA. I hope buffering is all it is. My cellular video plays fine. Ill try the coreplayer thanks.

Why not simply use vTap?
It can prebuffer the video or it can play directly from site if you use flv!
Also with vTap it is realy simple to search and you can watch videos from other sites too!

Is there anyway to get Coreplayer to launch directly from Youtube, or do you have to access it directly through the player. Also, do you know how to create playlist from videos viewed from youtube in coreplayer?
I've found that Streaming to TCPMP, with FlashVideoBundle, does not "keep alive" the connection. If I'm surfing the web everything is copasetic. I have Tweaked my phone to kill my Data Connection after 3 minutes. Surfing the web, it doesn't kill it after 3 minutes, or it reconnects supa-fast. But If I'm watching a You Tube Video via TCPMP if I'm not careful after three minutes 15 seconds the video stops and I notice my connection has been killed.
I cant get the diamond to streame videos from the web.
Please help fast, need to see Olympic games on my phone..
I read on the Opera sites that if the ActiveX was turn off it will not streame videos.. But how can i turn this on.. Please helt people. Need to see olympic games on my phone..
Is there no one that watches videos from the web with their phone??
If it is how do you do it??

You can not. It is disabled by Opera and cannot be reenabled.
Use Streaming Media Player, Youtube App bundled or check Menneisyys' Youtube Bible at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=387986

You mean BBC's iPlayer? Pretty problematic as there's only a native player for iPhone - you'll need to rely on "hacked" links - see http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...N4&q=bbc+iPlayer+"windows+mobile"&btnG=Search

with a lot - use for example CorePlayer or WMP. If redirection doesn't work, use IEM instead.
