[Q] how to get youtube app to play on gear? - Samsung Galaxy Gear

does anyone have youtube working on their gear? ive finally connected via bluetooth tether, sideloaded youtube but cant get it to play any vids

YT app did not work for me, but mobile page does. It's too slow to watch it this way anyway, just download the files and put them on your watch..

got it to work bro just download og youtube and sign out of it should work perfecly.

oh the video files. i'd rather grab a video file (flv, mp4, 3gp) and play it locally rather than stream it via internet on the watch.

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

Youtube Java app

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?
tvos
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....??

In the meantime they have nearly all videos (about 95%)!

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.

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.

Youtube Question

I notice on my G1, whenever i tried looking for an OFFICIAL Music Video of anything on the Youtube APP it does not show it at all. Even though it is there
Whenever i search it via google or youtube.com, it showed the video, but when played via youtube app it said video cannot be played.
Anyone know of any solution for this? Beside downloading it via keepvid.com?
Sorry it may be a stupid question, but its aggrevating me.. what the point of youtube when you cant even watch your fav music video.. the real ones lol

I don't know of anyway to bypass this. It is very annoying. The only alternative I know of is to try the YouTube downloader.apk
Sometimes when a video is freshly added, it won't show up on the mobile version for a while. Usually the official videos are added like every minute and then pulled from youtube. Maybe the video is getting pulled and then just added, that's why its not converted to mobile yet? That's my guess.
Ahh that sucks I guess there nothinn we can do I think somee sort of filter on the youtube browser. Is there any aftermarket browse that would the same as youtube app?
There's no filter.. Our devices only play mp4 or 3gp (mobile formats), so the vidoes on our youtube app or the ones we can play from the mobile youtube site are in mobile phone format. When a video is uploaded to youtube.com, it takes a while to get converted to a format playable on mobile phones. That's why are unavailble for a while (on our devices) after they're uploaded on youtube.com.
Do you understand now?
Videos that violate copywrite laws are pulled from youtube usually before they are converted to a mobile format.

Google's Play Movies & TV app help

I need your help with this app, well mostly the content. So now google play offers movie purchaces but in order to play them back you need to install Google's Play Movie & TV app, basically a video player. The app works well and all but i am wondering if there is a way to play the content on the tabs stock video player. I want to take advantage of the 5.1 sound. Once you purchace the movie you are able to download it but i can not seem to find it anywhere on tab and it is not on the download folder. I used root explorer but no where to be found. I also tried launching the stock video player but it only sees the sample video that came with the tab. Looking forward to your suggestions.
Hi,
I might be wrong but doesnt that just steam the video when it tells you it is being downloaded, this could be the only way you would watch it but not find it after that in the file system.
Have you checked the players file system?
Not to promote piracy but would it not be easier to download it over torrent and watch it with your original player...

I have looked for the players file system but i can't find it either.
Tried to use torrents but they are a bit annoying to use so i would just rather pay for the movie, i dont mind really.
