I always use youtube on my HTC Touch Pro.
Now I made a update with the new original HTC ROM.
Now youtube still does not work. I can look 2-3 videos -and then youtube freeze.
Can someone help me ? Is the reason the new ROM from HTC ?
Perhaps is it possible to install the youtube player once more or is there an upgrade?
Thanks for your help.
Downloading YouTube vids to the device? I remember hearing of one but can't find it.
I have an app called YouTube Downloader but i can't find it in Cyrket or AndroLib so i think it's been removed from Market

I hope someone can help, when I am on facebook and click on a youtube link i get an error saying this file type is not supported. I can view youtube videos fine when I am on the website, has anyone come across this before?

When you go to Youtube directly from your browser it pulls up the mobile version m.youtube.com
When you click a link through facebook- it takes you to the main site which does not work on the HD7 due to no flash.
its because facebook links to the desktop (www.) version of youtube, the youtube app adds support for the mobile (m.) version, when you click the facebook link you get directed to the desktop version as the app doesn't catch the link and redirect you to the mobile site.
You have to have both versions of the YouTube app installed. The version that came with the phone is what it tries to launch via links. The HTC version plays nicer quality vids.
So, I use the HTC version when I'm manually surfing YouTube, and the stock one installed so it will launch when I click a link.

except as pointed out by aaronhope1972 and myself the link catch doesn't work from 3rd party apps, which is what the OP was asking about. Personally I just wish they'd get flash ported and we'd not have this problem
Wow, had never tried that and just did.
Sucks.
Interestingly the People Hub Facebook integration part directs to m.youtube, which will subsequently work.
Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated. Its a pity about that.

Yeah not MS at it's finest right there huh
If they'd only actually open a real dialogue with users about what we need from the phones
Nevermind, like 3 topics about this on the first page. My search skills need honing.

Try this method, and you'll get latest youtube app for Eclair.

Hey buddy. I'm looking for the 2.1/Eclair YouTube app. Can you post it here (or send it in a PM)?
Here's the deal. I hate the newer versions of YouTube because they don't save list position when scrolling subscriptions. This causes me to have to start at the top of my subscriptions list after every video, even if I just pop in one to look at the description. However, I remember when I was using the Samsung Captivate (released with 2.1), its YouTube app did remember list position. So, I'm trying to track down its version of YouTube, not the newer versions, but I suppose the original Eclair version. Hope someone can help me out.
