Hello All
I have had pocket PC’s for years but never tried to do much with them, So I tried my new vario iii from t-mobile to play you tube video with out an success even from there mobile you tube. It struggles with the eBay web site as it will not drop down the buy or selling menus, and the video play is so slow....
I installed the TCPMP video play and it will see more video files than widows media play but not all will play. I installed the FLV plugin in the route of TCPMP dir and it still will not play the down loaded FLV files!
www.Youtube.com crashes my phone needing to reset it as it stops responding to keys
is the varo iii this bad or am i missing some updates? What do I have to do to get this phone to play videos off the web?
Thanks for any help you can give as T-Mobile don't know any thing other than how to sell you a phone..
give vtap ago, works fine on my vario

Is there any way to get streaming video on the Wing? I have been trying for a while now, the only thing i have come up with is HTC's streaming video player, but my wing wont install it. I copied a file called RvBCrS_HTC_Streaming_Media.cab to my memory card and then ran it from the file explorer and it said the the installation was unsuccsessful. Any ideas or tips on how to get it working? thanks
Not at the moment
There was a release out that used TCMP and a flash bundle kit that used to play Youtube videos, only now that youtube is changing their file format, it doesn't work. I'm not sure if it'll work with any other site.
Thanks, ive been working on this for this for days and its giving me a headache. I think ill try TCPMP in a couple of days. As long as it plays RTSP streams, Ill be happy.
Question answered, tcpmp player works great. Uninstalled divx mobile player and now using tcpmp. Thanks for help
Disregard below:
Hello fellow users and developers at Divx Mobile:
I downloaded the latest divx mobile player (.90) for windows 6 professional onto my htc 8925/kaiser (att tilt) however my videos aren't playing. The demos that come with the player play fine but my movie file (which is a true divx file as i can play it fine on my pc) does not play. The file is 241 megs in size and all i see is the start (2 sec and sometimes not even that)of the film and than the player goes back to the video screen.
My phone still has the stock oem rom/without any tweaks and the os is still oem nothing mod'ed/changed.
Can you please assist as to why this is happening?
Any help will be appreciated. (i love the divx player and i want to be able to use it on my phone)
anybody else having this issue?

Dude, seriously check the links in my signature.
8 posts, 6 threads? that qualifies you as a "Serial Threader"
I've combined the 2 threads (posted across 2 forums) where you asked for divx .90 on your Kaiser. You should have posted your question only once.
I'm glad you found a solution.
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.
Hi, I have a new ATT Tilt, and it can't play youtube videos. I tried going to m.youtube.com using IE and HTC Streaming Media, and it times out before the video even starts. I tried again in Opera, no success
When I open TCPMP, it crashes and gives me a crash.txt error. At first I thought it was because I used the smartphone version instead of the pocketpc version, but when I switched versions just to see if this was right, it still did not work and just gave me the crash.txt error when I opened TCPMP. When I finally found a version of TCPMP that did work fine and did not crash, flashvideobundle and flvcodecs did not even open the video.
When I used flashvideobundle with TCPMP, as according to wiki, it did not work, and TCPMP crashed and flashvideobundle did not open videos. For TCPMP, I tried using it in Opera, IE, and I went to m.youtube.com and youtube.com to try to get it to work.
I have the latest ATT Rom and Radio, and except for a soft and hard reset done after buying it, it has not been changed.
Can you guys please help? I've tried everything, and spent about four hours last night trying to get it to work, the closest thing that has worked is HTC Streaming Video, which actually opens the video but times out before playing it.
TCPMP
Hello mazdabish,
Are you using wm 6.1? Ff so, TCPMP will crash, and you need the recompiled improved version, here. Otherwise, try skyfire for youtube. That should work unless I'm missing something,

Have you tried Kinoma freeplayer?
I had a similar problem but got it sorted out from this site, download the .cab file from the link, hope all goes well.
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-tag-youtube.html
Try this app, it's called Youtube play, works great on my Tilt(link below).
There is also Core player that has a button for youtube built in, but it costs around $29.00
Get youtube play here
http://www.databasedevelopments.com/downloads/youtubeplay.cab
Try Kinoma free play. It takes a lil bit to set up initially...but once your through that it works like a breeze. It has a built in youtube search feature and you can login to your youtube account and browse, search and play vidoes all from within the player. Video quality and buffer underrun is also pretty decent.
Sorry guys for not giving this thread a resolution, but,
I found it easier to just flash my Tilt to a ROM that already has Youtube built it, took me about a day, but it worked painlessly and was a breeze.
Thanks for the help though.
i need help getting the videos to play. whenever I try to watch a video it says cannot play this video. can anyone help
did you just flash a new ROM and are you an AT&T user?
im sorry I have a stock rom with all the recommed software for the touchflo 2D to work and everything works other then you tube app it just won't play the vidoe
proxy?
you have the youtube app, but it wont find/ play videos (blank screens)?
did you remove the hidden proxy? there is a cab for it floating around here if you didnt.
If you can't find a way to fix it, an excellent application called youtubeplay should work just as well. Not quite as pretty, but it gets the job done and even can download and extract mp3's from the videos. Or get skyfire if you have 3G.
Dave
And FYI: I could never get the HTC youtube application to work.
YouTubePlay is far superior to the HTC YouTube app - in that it can actually play high quality videos without freezing.
