Can chrome play YouTube? - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I hate the YouTube app with a passion, but use chrome as my browser. I've noticed lately that videos won't play anymore though, are taking our freedom of choice away or is this just happening to me? When I try to open YouTube link it just loads a blank page.

No problem here
Chrome version ending with .133

[Q] Facebook not loading

Anyone having issues with Facebook loading up both on the web browser and on the market app?
I wonder if it's just not playing nicely with Honeycomb and won't play well with the browser due to Flash support??
Any thoughts. I'm very confused on this...

Just tried both. No issues here.
Mine didn't work until I removed the fb widget from the home screen.

The app stinks right now. I've saved the web version as an icon on my homepage. Looks great but I've noticed some lag using the forms on facebook

The facebook apps works for me, although the size, proportions and orientation all look pretty funky. By using facebook through the browser I havnt had any major issues other than when u click on a picture, it brings up their new picture viewer. The always seems to hang on me or I have problems closing it.

Q: Why are videos on GB within a browser pixelated?

On such a beautiful screen of the Note, it's a little disappointing that the videos within browser or any videos except on YouTube, are pixelated. Is it because of Flash, or this is normal? The videos on YouTube are a joy to watch in HD.

Thanks, but I am wondering whether the issue is the screen itself or playing videos within browsers, be it opera, boat browser, or dolphin hd.

Ar i get ya well if i remember right you get a 3day trial of skyfire so why not check it out.if vids play fine with that then its not your screen,
same case !!
I too had the same problem; but updating the flash player solved the issues.

Anyone found a way to get flash working again on the Dolphin browser?

......I finally got it to run on the default internet app. But all other browsers fail to run flash.
I installed an older version to get it to run on the default browser btw.

I just sent them an email asking about YouTube in particular. Dolphin plays the video, but no picture; I can only hear the audio. I've tried in many user agents same thing. YouTube plays fine on chrome....

Chrome doesn't use flash plugins so any videos viewed would be HTML5.
Boat Browser is another that still supports Flash Player.

I'll try that then. The stock browser is to plain even tho I have the flash player working on there

Right, but according to YouTube, everything has, or almost has been converted to HTML5, yet Dolphin doesn't play any video.... I can't imagine I've only tried the ones that are still only in flash format....

Cast button for Google Music from web browser

Anyway to cast directly to chromecast through a cast button simliar to youtube.com and google music on your phone/tablet? I can cast the entire screen,but was hoping for a native cast button..

I really hope Google adds this functionality to the Google Music web app at some point.
I'm confused, you're talking about the Google Play Music app with subscription service right? Because it has cast ability built-in if you have the latest version on mobile devices.

He's referring to being on a personal computer on a web browser. Far as I know there isn't a native cast button

Ahh thanks for the clarification, now that I read it slowly I see and agree. Wish there was a way to cast from a desktop like how the mobile app does, having a white control bar is not very good for tv's without a screensaver option.

This would be in a specially important update for Canadians as we can't even subscribe to Google Music

Anyone have the Play Music app force close upon trying to cast?
I wish there was browser support because this issue is annoying me...

I did have this issue. I needed to unplug my chromecast to get it to work, then it went fine.
I do hope Google adds that capability. I use Google music through the web quite a bit at home.
Soon?
When this loading the google music website icon appears but when finishes loading disappears ... it will be implemented soon?
This would be a good addition but just using the Chromecast Extension works perfectly fine. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-cast/boadgeojelhgndaghljhdicfkmllpafd
That's now possible !

How to chromecast with Chrome

Hi
How do you cast a web page from an android phone? I installed chrome beta but there is no cast button. How do you do it please?
It is not supported on mobile phones yet..
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
You can only send videos of supported types from a site you're on. You can't cast a tab's contents from mobile Chrome yet.
You have to enable it on your phone. Chrome beta supports it already but it's kinda buggy and not all videos are supported.
