No Video will play through chrome tab - Google Chromecast

I searched and couldn't find an answer.
What is happening is when I try to cast a tab with any type of video I get a blank screen with the sound. I read to uninstall silverlight so I did but I still the same problem. I reset my chromecast to factory still same problem. Uninstalled chrome and re installed still same problem. The strange this is when I choose to cast entire desktop it works but then I have no sound. Any suggestions on how to fix this.
Thanks

Folks here are reporting success with VLC and I believe Plex, so maybe search this forum for those.

I am having a similar problem. I installed Opera. when i go to YouTube using IE dont have a problem watching video TCPMP launchs and everything is great... but when i go to youtube using Opera i am rerouted to myoutube.com, when i click on the video, Streaming Media launchs and it just hangs there. Is there a reason why it doesnt work with opera. Thanks, and again sorry because i am pretty new at this. I am also running Dutty's WM6.1 and i have assossiated TCPMP with the 3gp files. any idea why Streaming Media is still launching. I have installed the files above and am still having the same problem.

Problem in streaming media on you tube
hi every1. can any1 sort out my problem. actualy i have streaming media software in my XDA and it was working alrite but after installing real player it stopped working with youtube.com. i have even uninstalled real player and deleted its aplication backup but still having problem. when i click any video on youtube.com it doesnt respond a bit. i will wait for any expert response. thanx
Youtube = TCPMP + FlashVideoBundle
Mobile Youtube = Streaming Media (Which is Real Player with HTC's wrapper)
For Mobile Youtube via HTCSMP you need to change your connection settings in the app. to MediaNet for AT&T or whatever you browse the net with.
Thanks GSLEON3,
However here is where i stand. If i go to Youtube.com everything is fine. however when i got to m,youtube.com and go to launch a clip. all that happens is that streaming Media Launches and hangs. This happens wheather i am connect via wifi or 3G.
If i go to Streaming Media ->menu->options->network
No matter how many times i change it to media net, everytime i go back, it says "The Internet"
Under Settings->Connections->Manage existing connections->Proxy Settings
The Box that says "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet" is NOT checked.
Under Settings->Connections->advanced->Select Network, both say Media Net
Under Settings->HSDPA, The Turn on HSDPA box is NOT checked.(not really sure what that is for)
I have no idea why i cant get the m.youtube.com vids to play ... any idea ?
Thanks

from what Ive read, youtube videos wont play with Opera Mini because that browser doesn't support flash videos as yet.
its is not opera mini, its mobile, and the problem also happens in IE. Flash is installed and works well
I think what i need is a copy of Streaming Media 3, I think reinstalling it will fix my problem. However i need something other that the IMAX 5?
m.youtube.com will not work with Dutty's WM6.1 rom
Hello,
I agree with my fellow posters, their is a huge difference between the full youtube website and the mobile youtube website. I think something is wrong with the HTC streaming player in the Dutty's WM6.1. Rom.
After clicking the thumbnail i get the message, you are about to go online. And then it starts "Streaming Media" with an endless "Connecting" message.
Had someone any luck with Dutty's rom to get m.youtube.com running?
Regards Tom

same problem here. I'm using Streaming Media 3.00 (build 1001.711). Still looking for a solution.
Hey,
I just managed to solve my problem. I downloaded the HTC Streaming Media CAB file and installed it, overwriting the installation with the Dutty 6.1 rom. Now it works perfectly fine for me.
Ciao,

You might want to follow my articles, they're cross-posted to the General forum so you don't even need to go to another forum / page. In some of them, I've pretty thoroghly explained why this happens: the RTSP protocol doesn't work in a firewalled environment.
Solution: go for a non-RTSP-based solution like CorePlayer, the TCPMP-based plug-in and other playback solutions etc.

Note that, if you are firewalled, it won't work, regardless of the ROM versuion.

Problem with streaming media

I am runnig duttys wm 6.1 rom and I am having problems with streaming media. Whenever I try to play a video streaming media opens up and does nothing. Then when you press connect a filed pops up to enter a url. On my previous roms I just had to paste the url in and it usually worked. I am not sure if this issue has ever been resolved. I don't understand why the player fails to open it on the first try. Anyway the real problem I am having now is that the player fails to connect to the internet. I am using media net as my default data connection, unfortunately when I go to change the connection setting to media net, (it is currently set to "the internet") its does not save. As soon as I press ok and return to the settings menu it remains on the internet connection. I also tried editing other settings and none seem to remain changed. I am not sure if this is just an issue with this rom, or this build of the htc streaming media software. Any fix for this issue would be much appreciated, but I am willing to remove and avoid using this software entirely. The only thing is that I don't know how to remove or disable it as is is not listed as an installed program. So if anyone can help me out with that, that would be great.
get the flashvideo bundle and install tcpmp first,cabs and step by step instructions are in the wiki

Coreplayer YouTube not working?

YouTube works fine in Opera and the Streaming Manager app but in Coreplayer Mobile it just constantly brings up the loading symbol when selecting a video.
Anyone else have this or know a fix? I am on Jacks 1.3 Lite ROM with the YouTube registry fix installed.
That's strange. Youtube works for me in Coreplayer. I am also using Jack's Lite Rom 1.03. I did not try if it works in Opera though.

It is ticked already
I can't get Youtube to work in Streaming Media
Have you tried ticking flv box in the file extensions/
I got an email from CorePlayer makers saying there is a bug and they are fixing it in the next release
I have come across a problem with Coreplayer and its YouTube, so I have decided to use this thread instead of starting my own using the same title.
Coreplayer plays YouTube movies. No problem with that, even more it plays them in excelent quality (setting h264 medium quality, flv high bandwidth). But for some reason it cannot stop them. When the video is over the loading sign (rotating circle) appears and the screen freezes. After a couple of seconds I hear audio as if the video started to play all over again, but the screen is still frozen on that last frame. When I press any button the audio stops as well and that is that. There is no other solution than removing the battery, which annoys me greatly.
Does any of you have the same problem and have you been able to solve it? Coreplayer plays youtube with the highest quality by farand would really like to see it work properly.
Anybody else with this wierd Youtube problem?
Except that it freezes my phone like, every 5 minutes, it works fine i guess.
Too bad I have to reset my phone every time, because if i wouldnt had to, it would be a good piece of software.
Using Coreplayer 1.3 btw.
Well I am pretty disapointed as well. The video playback of original divx files is jerky and if I have to encode I might as well encode to a file media panel recognises. And now the youtube thing. There are still podcasts, I hope I will not come across a problem there.
huh?
i dont get it... my coreplayer plays youtube great, and divx great... i did have the youtube option dissapear mysteriously, but i re-enabled it in the network setting and its worked great ever since...
ive watched 2 movies in divx - one was a fast paced action movie and it played absolutely perfectly the whole time. maybe you need to have certain settings ticked, or maybe the fact that ive used the various tweaks in this forum to speed up my sd card, and to optimize my cache settings and such is helping...
more info may help resolve this...unfortunately i dont know much technical jargon.. i fiddle until things work.
I got my core working again with an update, but the standalone youtube player and panel is MUCH easier and better to use.
Hi, i work with an HTC Touch Pro 2 and on it with the newest CorePlayer. But i can not watch any Youtube Videos. I can search, and browse the different categories. But when i want to start a video the player gets back to the starting screen.
The "normal" video playback works fine.
Why? Anybody else with this problem?
PS: I have activated the network settings.
Youtube has made a change to how their protocol works. CoreCodec knows about the isue and they said they have alreay fixed it on an internal build. Sadly we will probably have to wait a very long time for the fix to be released.
here, some videos work, some others not, like the 70% of them, just try to open but stop downloading without image
Anybody else getting this problem again?Youtube videos stopped playing for me since tuesday,i'm running coreplayer 1.3.6 windows mobile.
Yes same her, my CorePlayer 1.3.6 stopped playing Youtube end of July.
Is there any update out there?
Yep, doesn't work...lame

Help with the Media Panel

Whenever I try to play a movie in the Media Panel, it goes to a black screen like it's going to load the video, then suddenly goes back to the video listings. Same thing happens with the music. Any way to fix this??
I had this, its a registry thing I think. When I tried to play them in WMP it said something like "The source filter could not be located." I hard reset.
I am not optimistic anyone really knows how to fix this. I have done searches on this before and tried some youtube fixes to resolve, but they all failed. Good luck, thougn.
Figured it out, I uninstalled the Youtube cab, which for some reason messed up the media panel. Is there a different Youtube cab that I can use? I had the zenkinz Youtube app before.

Problem casting live YouTube streams

Have a problem trying to cast live YouTube streams. Now I can cast the whole tab and maximize on a PC fine but if I press the cast button on the vid itself or try to cast from iPad or phone it gives me problems. Anyone getting the same thing?
Seconded... "There was an error playing this video."
Edit:
I was going to try and provide feedback to them about this and came across this in the help pages...
YouTube on Chromecast does not currently support optimized playback of private videos, YouTube Live streaming videos, or videos from Paid Channels. A simple workaround to this is to use the Google Cast Extension in a Chrome browser rather than the Cast button in the youtube.com player or YouTube app. You may get a warning message that says “Cast-enabled page; use controls in the page for an optimal experience. Learn more," just ignore it in this case. Learn more about the difference between optimized playback and Casting a tab.

Ya, thats what I ended up doing. Hopefully they sort it out. Would be nice to be able to cast and do other stuff on the PC without the video maximized. Or do it through a mobile device.
