Please read http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=969&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

Have a look at this site:
http://www.srobbin.com/mobilevideo/
It a mobile search for google video

You can also use www.orb.com. The app is great. The youtube videos play nicely on my 8125

Thanks guys for the feedback.

how did u get to view you tube on your 8125? i have orb 2.0 and it keeps asking me for some codecs.

You have to download certain codecs and install them from there website. The codec that i installed to get the youtube videos to play was the ffdshow codec.

what do you guys mean? go to tinytube.net on your phone and you can download any video from 6 different sources, including, google, myspace, and break just to name a few.
its awesome

I second that. Nothing to install, just download away.
--M

You CANNOT view youtube videos with tinytube.net. Plus it seems im always being queued to view a damn video. Orb is faster compared to the quality...only downside is you have to have your computer running. Which I dont find to be a problem personally

but most youtube videos are on google and myspace anyway

It seems that none of the offered solutions properly play streaming video. Anyone found any other way to do so?

I followed these instructions and the work very very well on my WM6 Kaiser.
http://www.allshadow.com/2007/11/28/how-to-watch-online-video/

Kind of off topic, but a little similar... Is anyone having problems downloading streaming media from these sites? I have an AT&T Tilt and whenever I click on a streaming link that is flashed based, Realplayer will come up and tell me this file format is not supported. But, there is no option anywhere to uninstall this thing! I also tried adding all associations /w TCPMP but still no luck. Anyone else running into this?

Watching YouTube videos

Is it possible to watch YouTube videos on my Vario II? Ideally, I'd like to simply browse to the YouTube website and watch them there.
There is http://tinytube.net/ but I have yet to be able to watch any of the movieclips...
I have used http://vixy.net/flv_converter to convert them and allow them to be downloaded. Not ideal.

i second tinytube, seems to work quite well...plus you are saving the files, not just streaming
So you are able to stream the files?
My WMP says it cannot open the stream...
I use the latest version of Orb and I can search YouTube and play videos.

Oh no, i should rephrase that. I'd rather download than stream, so the fact that I can only download them isn't an issue.
Orb is the key, also you should use Core Media player to play video files.
hi,
what is orb?
the tinytube thingi does not work with my hermes with htv 1.35
Check out Orb at http://www.orb.com

I thought Orb required you to use your full-size PC to find the YouTube video, download it, convert it, and store it on your PC before you can log in to your PC through your PDA to stream a converted version? If that's the case, why not just download the movie and convert it with any other video conversion util?

You are mistaken. Through the mycast.orb.com website you can search for YouTube videos and it will start streaming it over your connection(with the PC working in the background to convert on the fly).

Is anybody else having issues where they get the audio but no video for You Tube videos through Orb? I have tried with WMP and with Core Media Player.
dopod 838pro here. and yes, audio only. no video. hope we get a fix!
Make sure you have all the codecs installed on your PC:
http://support.orb.com/support/solution.jsp?sol=144
Once I did this mine was fine. I believe mine was missing the codecs for Google Video, and once I installed them it worked great!
Just go to http://www.mymobileclips.com on your pc or http://wap.mymobileclips.com on your phone.
Youtube, Google Video, Metacafe, and Dailymotion videos available for browsing and downloading.

Streaming Videos

Can somebody please explain to me how streaming video works. Like I can't watch YouTube. I tried reading the directions, but I got lost. Does anybody know how I can find "channels" to watch? I have Cingular Video and MobiTV already. Anybody know of anything else?

ditto that! we were looking for a specific video the other night - only to discover that the videos available for myoutube is a fraction of what's available at the site. however; it did serve as a distraction for the kiddies during dinner.
Try Tinytube.net
Is there anything special that I need to download to the phone to get it to work? I tried going to the site, but something about javascript not being enabled. I tried searching on here, but came up with a bunch of junk.
You need WM6 and PPC Flash player 7 and you can watch the video on main site with that..
You just need to wait until video fully buffers or it will be choppy otherwise..
Thats how I got it working..
Thanks guys. Got it to work, but it's choppy as hell.

TINYTUBE.NET WORKS GREAT FOR ME!!!!!!

tcpmp flv plugin

anybody tried this yet. my phone is currently not working well right now so I can't try it.
u can download the plugin here:
http://handheld.softpedia.com/progDownload/TCPMP-Plugin-for-Flash-Video-on-PPC-Download-43412.html
basically it will play flv files over the internet via mobytube.net. mobytube.net is a search engine for google video, youtube, etc....
can anybody confirm this works? this might be our solution for full youtube on our phones.
i hate m.youtube.com. too little videos to watch.
what is tcpmp....ive seen this mentioned in other post and felt dumb to ask
thanks for the tip...i will check it out once I get on my computer at home.

TCPMP means "the core pocket media player."

lol @ dude,,,it is thing, that M$ may learn from.
regular youtube.com videos (not m.youtube.com) play fine on my 8125 with nbd8.0 and adobe flash player 7....so I don't know why people are finding all these workarounds for youtube, since it does work. It's just kinda choppy, but I think that's because I don't have an external memory card to buffer big amounts of data...

Youtube movies?

Is it possible to get Youtube movies working on the BA (running WM6), and if so, what player do I need?
The TCPMP player gives me a "RTSP protocol not supported" error when trying to look at a Youtube movie :/
hi there!
there is some kind of plugin/addon, which allows you to download youtube movies to your pda....
just search this forum or google for it, here is ONE source!
hope that helps....
regards,
krz
I have that tcpmp plugin, and it does work most of the time. I've run into some files on youtube that still give me an unknown media format error. Not sure why.
The Avot Media Viewer that someone posted about here a week or so ago works great though.
http://www.avotmedia.com/
http://m.avotmedia.com/
The Avot is OK but it needs much work to be more than OK.
I use the vTap.
http://veveo.net/
Use the search bar to browse uploaded videos from any embedded video website (like youtube, metacafe etc).
You can also have a feature of searching into wikipedia articles!
Very cool...
After doing a bit more digging, I installed Streaming Media v 2.10 build 518.700 (from High Tech Computer Corp.) on it.
It's working GREAT!

hi everyone!
well, i installed the HTC STREAMING cab, which was included in xplode's cabs. i dont know, what version this actualy is...
anyway, i can playback youtube movies, but the performance sucks big time.... lots of stuttering, not enjoyable at all.... is it just me experiencing this problem?
is the BA oo slow to playback such vids?
or am i doing something wrong here?
thx in advance,
krz
you should check your internet connection too...
me again!
have to add, that i now have the FLASHVIDEOBUNDLE.cab installed, which not only gives me great streaming playback using TCMP Player (make sure u have installed the right version first!), but in addition to that gives me the oppotunity to save the flash videos to your storage right away....
VERY COOL CAB!!! KUDOS 4 THE (true) CREATORS!
btw: that STREAMING thing that came with xplode's cabs still doesnt work... (my internet connection is of course up and running!!)
cheers,krz
okay, after playing around a little bit and after installing/deinstalling/reinstalling HTC STREAMING Software, i am afraid i screwed up flv playback completely...
every time i try to load a youtube site,pocketIE crashes and my device freezes, leaving me with soft reset as only solution!
i tried to play back flvs on the youtube mobile site as well, with no sucess. nothing happens! the vids just dont load....
ARGH!!!!!
keeps crashing and crashing.... (pocketIE keeps loading, the suddenly freezes!)
when trying to play mobile youtube in pocketIE, nothing happens.... (just loads 0kb, then stops...)
can anyone load youtube.com without any problems?
can anyone play back youtube.com movies without problems?
HOW?
sorry for whining around here, but this really makes me go N U T Z

I read thru that post as well and as I wrote, I cannot play back m.youtube.com videos eitehr, it just sttarts loading and stops immediatly at 0KB again, thats it.
what streaming client do you have installed?
the one, that came with xplode's cabs?
or that one: RvBCrS_HTC_Streaming_Media.rar?
the easy and fast way, install my streaming media cab open m.youtube.com and it will stream with the player just fine, tested and working

thx, xplode! i actually did that. first time, i could not start the application, because of some error. i reinstalled the SDKCerts again and after that the error was gone, but no application starting either.... i really tried various times, what am i missing?
well did you installed audio manager also ?, inside the cab there is verinfou.dl which is needed for most of the HTC software, but if you install them both it will work

How can i download the youtube video after i watch on htc youtube player

How can i download the youtube video after i watch on htc youtube player

Youtube
You can't, videos are owned by youtube.
there is a program that lets you do this. its called GETYTV
search for the video on the phone in youtube and then you can download the video as mp4 or whatever so you can bluetooth it to other people or just show it to other people from your memory.

i think that's not exactly what he meant. i think he wants to download the videos he's watching in the youtube-client. what you are proposing only works if you surf to www.youtube.com via opera.
btw: keepvids.com is a good site, too.

you use the GETYTV client to search for the videos and download them that way, so yes you cannot do it using the youtube application and it uses internet explorer by the looks of it. it works and thats it. nothing flashy
