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.
I was wondering if anyone has found a work around for the blocked videos on youtube. I am mainly interested in music videos.
Am i crazy or does youtube android app not get any vevo videos from youtube in searches? Same search on the web returns different results.
Not good when I'm trying to watch some music videos on wifi.

They aren't made available on YT mobile.
About two weeks ago, I was able to view youtube videos in a native youtube video player on the mobile site from my android browser. Now every time I go to the mobile site I either can't even click on the video or a second, smaller (play video) button pops up slightly below the video that gives me the videos in a lower quality resolution. I'm running 2.2. I miss having this native viewing ability.
I don't think it's a problem with default apps either. I've reset just about every default that I can and it's still happening. ugh.
Is it just me or is everyone unable to play videos in the usual 360p quality. I only get 240p videos even though I have enabled HQ playback.
NVM, found it 3 seconds after clicking post.
Go to Themes and Apps section. Someone has already found a fix.
