When ever I try to watch youtube videos through google video, it doesn't play. I'm using flashvideobundle. It works when I go to youtube itself, but not google video. I prefer going to google video, because it's easier and gives more video results. Please Help. I think google changed something and now it won't work. Thanks in advance.

Why dont you try vTap?
I don't like vtap. I prefer the freedom of flvbundle.
google video works fine with me using fvb
Well, when I try to play it, the dropdown menu to play opens, but when I press play, nothing happens. I've tryed removing flvb and reinstalling it, but it still won't work.
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
I just saw this video on youtube, but I'm kind of afraid to sideload this after the virus scare last week.
Vid
If it's legit, I'm totally loading it up.
[EDIT]The link goes to a Megaupload page and the file is called app.apk
Looks a little suspect to me, but they guy in the vid has the XDA app, so who knows.
This app needs flash i think? Basically searches for shows on video sites like megavideo, frogmovz, etc.
Your best bet for streaming TV and Movies on the XOOM is going to be PLEX, in my opinion.
IF you only have a Windows based computer to host the server on then you will only be able to stream what ever local content you have at present. The Windows based server for Plex is still very much a work in progress.
IF you have a Mac to host the server on then there are many plugin available such as Hulu and Netflix, to go along with local content.
At present PLEX will give you a video subsystem error if you attempt to play video on the XOOM. I know for a fact that the XOOM is being worked on by the PLEX devs, and we should have a working version out in the near future.
I will post here in the Xoom Apps section as soon as we have it ready for our lovely new toy.
tv shows
tv show streamer needs flash to work. you can find that in the market. Check out my youtube video on how to get free tv shows and movies

Hi
We have opened a testing request for the aplication "TV Shows Stream" and "Tv Shows Stream Lite"
The testing request thread is here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=977194
And the main thread aplication is here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903351
The aplication need flash player installed. It will play the videos from megavideo and other streaming site that are using jwplayer. The aplication is working fine in all 2.2 / 2.3 android flash capable tablets and in most of android devices with flash.
Any info will be welcome, thanks in adnvanced.
The app looks and functions fine except it wont actually play a video.
It will give me the message "Megavideo will load in a few seconds, please wait" and then just sits there.
If I touch the menu button I get the option to "Close Browser". If I touch the screen, it shows the progress bar at the top and loads the Megavideo site.
If I use the Karambavidz link it plays sound, but no video.
Frogmovz gives me the message to "Tap play and let the video load", but there is nothing to tap. The screen is black.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
We are working in an update that will be released soon, probably before monday that allows karambavidz and loombo links to be played without using flash player, using the android native player. Those links should work fine.
For the other links, you can email yourself the link, copy it, and open it with "Dolphin HD" browser (free on market). It has been reported on Xoom forum that they can use the links if they use in this way. I know is not a good way to do it, but is a temporary workarround.
More info soon in the application thread, we are working right now on the update, its almost finished.
Regards
Hi
TV Shows Stream v3.0 has been updated now (the lite version will be updated on monday likely), clean the market cache if you dont see the update.
Karamabvidz and Loombo links can now be opend with external player. (the android native player, rock player, vplayer or any other that you have installed on your device.
We will be working on how to improve the other video links performance over xoom in the next weeks. For the other devices flash 10.2 is working fine. (flash 10.2 is beta for honeycomb) .
Please,, report if the karambavidz and Loombo links works fine on Xoom using "External players" option. Thanks in advanced.
regards
anyone try out jetflicks? Its pretty much a membership to a website, but many many different shows to choose from. They seem to keep up to date pretty well. Dont pay for the application its only a link to their website.

I just tried metrotube, everything seems to be working fine. Streaming and preloading.
Not sure about the other apps, since MS had to revert back to the crappy youtube app.
I don't have problems with the official Microsoft You Tube app.The only problem is when you hit the search button instead of searching the query it delete's it so you have to press the "enter" key to get your result.

Hey,
Looked around and didn't see anything on this so I'm posting.
I get this error whenever I try and use the 'Instant Mix' in the play music app. Honestly, I don't care about it but it seems to need to work right in order for me to use the 'Touchless control' to start playing music using my voice...which would be pretty cool!...if it worked.
I read on another site to add a payment method through google play but that didn't work.
any help would be appreciated! Thanks all!

Noticed this as well. My friends Nexus 5 seems to handle the "play this" command quite well. My moto x seems to look for a instant mix and play it.
Tried the "play this" and the same thing happens...well, what happens is that the app just closes and go backs to the home screen.
"Couldn't prepare instant mix. Please try again." <- A bug I've been trying to fix for a long time...
I too have been frustrated with this error, but it didn't start with my Moto X. I also had this problem with my previous phone, a Nexus S, yet there is a surprising lack of information on the error when googled.
For troubleshooting, here is my environment:
AT&T Moto X, official 4.4, rooted
Google play music up to date (as of 12/13/2013)
all music (about 6 gigs) is on the phone, none on google music cloud. All songs have good album, artist, genre, albut art, etc 'tags'
I tried rebooting and clearing data on google play music
I verified my location and signed up on google.com/music yesterday, added a few songs and sync'd, but that did not help
Sometimes my "Im feeling luck mix" works, sometimes it doesn't. My library -> songs -> shuffle always works fine
Does anyone get the error with their music stored on google's music cloud?

I have most of the music stored on google play music in the cloud and some locally on my phone. When attempting to create an instant mix, only cloud stored music seems to work. Locally stored files give an error. Also making and loading instant mixes seem to only work with an active internet connection, even if the cloud files are set to have offline access.
So no ideas?...=(...no one else having this problem?...or no one cares about using voice to play music? Maybe a good music player that supports voice? I found 'Clean Music' but not a very robust player.
Well you could try this if you have xposed installed. Its a module that let's you say "play music" and it will just start playing whatever was loaded in play music previously. Works for me.

Sounds interesting...do I have to root or anything? I'm reading through the framework thread and looks like there is a risk of a soft brick...=(
Well you have to be rooted to install the xposed framework and as with anything, there is a chance of a soft brick. Look at some of the other threads to find info on rooting. Works great for me!

Instant mix
Hi,
I've got the same problem on my nexus 5, and what I've found is this:
- When you try to start an instant mix when you've got an internet connection, it'll only play music stored online. (so it won't start if you've got nothing stored in the cloud)
- When you start an instant mix without internet access, it will work (but of course only the music stored on your device will play)
The voice commands only work when you've got an internet connection, so I'm guessing it won't start an instant mix with music stored on your device either? I haven't been able to try it with music stored online, cause I don't have a valid payment method for the service..
So I think it will work when you try the voice command for music stored online?
Can anyone verify that?
I just tried this as I do have a couple songs I've purchased through Google Play...but it didn't seem to work. I went to a song not on the device and selected "Start Instant Mix" and got the same error. I then turned on Airplane Mode, went to a song on the device and tried and same error. =(

Can't start instant mix
Hmm..
I've read somewhere that you need more than a few songs stored online to be able to start an instant mix, so maybe it's that..But I don't really think that's the problem though..that would be stupid
Does starting an "I'm feeling lucky mix work" with you? (online/offline?)
Can you start a specific song (stored online of course) with voice commands?
why o why do they install it on all nexus devices (and more?), when it doesn't even work properly?
Manually update Google play music
Although this thread has been inactive for a bit, the problem for me at least had not resolved itself. After months of ignoring it finally decided to look for a solution. So I'll post here if anyone else still has issues.
The solution is simple but annoying. Had to manually update the player. This should have happened automatically, through play store app but for some reason my Moto X was supposedly up to date on some version of 5.5 when a simple googling session says that play music had been past 5.6 for a while. So anyway I downloaded the latest copy i could find (5.6.1623P.1416251), it installed fine, and now the problem seems to have gone away even with mobile data enabled, which is required anyway for touchless control.
I had nothing online and was getting this error. There's a 'downloaded only' option in the settings that I checked and that brought instant mix back to life for me, although now called shuffle, so would seem to be an online problem I think
I had same problem,
What you need to do is to go on play store > apps > my apps > all > google play music > update
v5.5.1623P adds ability to search public playlists
now u can say "ok google now play some music" and see what will happen
Use the cloud

All you have to do is delete all your songs from your phone... use the internet from a computer... and upload your entire catalog to the cloud using the Google Play Music website/app. You can put up to 20,000 songs there for free. (That's a lot of albums!!) Everything about the app is better after you do this. You can use Chromecast, all album art shows up, etc.
I just want to point out how stupid it is that this is what you have to do to make this product work. Why can't we just put our our music on an SD card and get the same results? Maybe in a few years after they update the app 5,000 more times.

I faced the same problem, and what I did was I manually updated the Google Play Music app.
In the Google Play Store>My Apps>All , search the Google Play Music and I found out that it had an update but strangely the notifications never shown automatically. So I updated the app and now I can fire up music from my moto 360.
ONE SOLUTION
I haven't seen this solution posted anywhere, so here is what fixed it for me:
Play Music App -> Menu -> toggle Downloaded only
After toggling it started creating instant mixes.
If you are playing local music only, just switch the switch in the app, which says "Downloaded only" and instant mix will work !
