Well, I'm slightly confused. I searched, didn't find anything in particular for what I'm asking.
Anyways, as I was reading, wasn't Windows Mobile 6.1 supposed to support flash in browser, ale to view all the websites with flash and the such? I just upgraded to the 6.1 open touch and the rom, while really quick and enjoyable, doesn't seem to have that feature BUILT IN. I thought it was native to 6.1. Am I wrong? Did they lie, or can you guys just not implement it yet? Because according to videos I've seen, not only can you view all the videos of flash, but you can also zoom similar to the iphone..which I can't seem to be able to do either.
the ability to view flash in the browser is not explicitly included in WM6.1
rather, the videos of people watching youtube probably include the TCPMP's flash bundle or some other 3rd party software
Hello and welcome to the forum.
If you want to view youtube videos on your XDA, Simple press the upcoming link.

This is the TCPMP that Fzzyrn was talking about. With this application you can view youtube videos.
Go to youtube.com on your XDA and simply search for a video you want to view. Click on the picture to view the video.
A pop up box will appear, Tap on view video and TCPMP will appear and your able to view the video.
Hope this helps

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

vtap works, but "wasn't that good" is a vast understatement - I've never seen such pitiful resolution!

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 have been searching and reading for a couple of weeks about this and cant seem to get an answer. It seems that everything is geared toward Youtube and Google video.
Is there a way with the kaiser to go to say CBS.com and watch the Masters on the broadband feed or to TSN and watch a hockey game?
Fogive me if I have missed it but a nudge in the right direction would be great.
no most of those websites are using programs and cookies you must download to view the videos, some are flash/java. most of this is based more on the browser you are using. Skyfire allows viewing flash sites, but i dont know how the quality of the video feed would look
This is my first time posting so go easy.
Since getting the Kaiser I have really wanted to be able to stream videos from Youku or Tudou since it has pretty much everything. The TCPMP video loader doesn't seem to be working anymore and the only way I have been able to achieve this is by searching the site for the video I want, copying the link into www.clipnabber.com and then copying the download links into TCPMP. Does anyone know of an easier way, or perhaps is anyone willing to write a program similar to youtubeplay to allow us to do this. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Just wait for the new Opera mobile to come out which supports flash?
Then you can go directly to youku or tudou websites and play whatever you want.
have you tried skyfire?
its not like tcpmp (instead it plays within the browser) but it has a nice zoom feature that basically makes it full screen.
Actually my version of Opera plays video from youku in the browser. It only started about a week ago, problem is it's slower than a three legged dog. And as for Skyfire, not in the US so thats not an option. I just thought somebody might be willing to write a program considering how many TV shows and stuff are available on youku. By the way is TCPMP with videoloader working for anyone?
Hey guys, If I'm in the wrong area, I apologize.
I was wondering if there was a better youtube app for the HTC Fuze. The native youtube app, and the google youtube app are nice, but they do not play the full range of videos available on youtube, (ex. try looking up the music videos for "What you got" by Colby O'donis, or "Dangerous" by Kardinal Offishall, forgive my taste in music). You will not be able to find the music videos for these songs like you would on a desktop computer.
I've tried Coreplayer, and WVD player, but they either take a really long time searching or there is great difficulty finding videos.
I know this sounds funny but I'm quite surprised that there is difficulty for flash videos on winmo. I have a psp, and the youtube app is amazing (you also have the ability to go to other video hosting websites). Is there a youtube app that is equivalent to a desktop computer or the psp?
Thank you for your time.
ive been a bit dissapionted also in the phone because i tell everyone how much better the touch pro is than the iphone and then it cant do high quality youtube videos. please someone prove me wrong
if you go to the settings icon at the top and hit high quality instead of fast speed they look pretty damn good....
Yeah but if you're running a stock ROM the video skips because it can't process or keep the video and audio in sync..don't know what causes the problem. Not sure if that happens on cooked ROMs though
Have you tried coreplayer 1.3.2 youtube section after pressing views. It has settings out the a**! Hi,Lo,3g,FLV,H264 720p. Beautiful!! Try that if you havent!
But coreplayer is a commercial app, it is not free
btw I tried this software but was unable to make it work for youtube, it never finds anything...

Coreplayer works great...mine finds and plays youtube all day long. Commercial it is but its worth it....
dont know what the problem is but i can find the songs you name just fine. for both songs i get a dozen results. aswel through 3G as wifi. altough i cant select the high quality or fast download option cause there is no option menu anymore in my version of the youtube app (dont know wich version btw) but it was already in my rom
okay is there a way to just use youtube but not having the screen on sometimes i just want to listen not view and the only way this is possible it to have the screen on is there a app or such to do this???
Not that I have seen. As it is, it is not part of AOSP so it is difficult to modify. Youtube is for video's so it's not really meant for what you want it to do.
why not just go to the desktop youtube site?
I've never tried but I don't think the video will stop playing if you lock the screen.
maybe even the new mobile youtube site, just give it a shot.
