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

Hey, im kinda new here but im interested in playing youtube videos on my wm6 htc mogul, i tried the RvBCrS_HTC_streamer but it dosent connect and it keeps giving me an error messege about connection failed even though im connected by wifi, any apps out there that can help me please let me noe, thanx
There is a link floating around for the TCMP player and the flash bundle. I can fully play google vids and youtube with no problem using it.
Try searching google for Vtap, its a program that lets you access videos from tons of sites, and works well too. In my opinion, its alot better and faster than using TCPMP, and PIE, plus you can get more videos. Try it out.
thanks stevenewjersey got the tcmp player with the flash bundle, works freakin great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The vtap download says its not a valid ppc file, any reason for that killerkhatiboy009? I would love to play more then a few vids and if vtap would work i would use it, any advise
Be warned there are a few versions of that TCMP player and flash bundle out there. Make sure you find the latest. Alot of the early versions stop working after a while and require a reinstall of the bundle
any chance giving us a link or name to that bundle?

Hmm, thats weird, it installs fine on my mogul and runs great. I think you might have to unlock it or something is what i've heard, some moguls need to be unlocked (as in they can install and run all files, not as in they can use any network). I'm not exactly sure how to fix it, maybe someone else knows how to do it. Sorry. It is a great program, and I think its a lot better than the TCPMP and Flash bundle, as it has an interface, and gets a lot more videos.
It's improperly named, just change it from .exe to .cab and voila
The youtube hack no longer works. An error about sfw args comes up. Hope some1 fixes it.

How did you dowload the vTap application? You should just have to point your phones browser to www.vtap.com. It shoudl then point you to the correct .cab file to download. If for some reason that still does not work, you can try pointing your browser to http://www.vtap.com/pub/vTap_ppc.cab. Could you tell me which phone you are using?
For all your youtube TCMP Flash bundle problems go to the site below.
They update the page every time youtube changes their files.
Install the updated TCMP and Flash programs, and your back up and running once again. Enjoy!

Coz Boogie @ PPCGeeks has posted updated TCPMP & Videobundle files that works on the Mogul/PPC 6800 for video streaming (including You Tube, Metacafe, etc).

Translation: There is a ??? updated bundle that will fix the problem your having.
this is a common issues with the new radio/rom. so if you recently updated, there is part of your problem.

It's been fixed. File links are posted on page 1 of this thread on treo central and it works on my Mogul again:

HTC Streaming Media Player installation problems!?
I downloaded/installed the RvBCrS_HTC_Streaming_Media.cab from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341755, copied the dll's to my device (did not overwrite existing), and soft reset. When i launch a youtube video from m.youtube.com, the HTC Streaming Media Player opens, says 'connecting' for ~10 seconds, and then closes.
Has anyone else had this issue/can recommend a fix for the TITAN?
mobytube.net with tcpmp flash bundle (audio sync is off by -500ms and for file associations check mms) OR use orb with windows media player OR avot(i don't like it) OR buy an ipod touch and use wmwifirouter on the titan to use the ipod's youtube app
PS - the htc_streaming cab works for me (i didn't move any dll's, just installed and reset) but m.youtube.com sucks compared to mobytube and orb and ipod.
Where can I find a .flv player??
I need to watch my .flv movies which are already stored on my device (so I'm not talking about see youtube's videos)..
I have already tried TCPMP and its plugin.. But it doesn't work.. It isn't able to open my .flv files (and I have installed the plugin)...
Anyway.. Any solution?
It could go well also something which allow me to play .flv videos directly from PIE or NetFront...
I already know that youtube allows you to see its videos throught TCPMP, but I need to see also other videos, not onle youtube's ones...
Thank you!
tcpmp works for me
yeah, flavio, I think you're doing something wrong. I watch .flv files all the time with tcpmp.
Nothing fancy to make it work, I just install the flash media bundle with tcpmp (the part that makes it work for online youtube videos), and then within tcpmp, click file->open and browse to the .flv on my storage card.
Can't get much more simple... what's not working?

I don't know what is wrong..
I have done exactly what you said....
When I try to open a .flv video with TCPMP, an error occours saying that "codec isn't supported".....
Maybe the plugin I download is corrupted...
Can you send me a link to download it?

Have you made sure that Flash Video is checked in File Associations?
When prog open select Options/Settings and then select page File Associations and scroll down near the bottom to check Flash Video box, and any others you might wish to enable.
It's one thing installing the plug-in but it still needs enabling!

Only asked if u were running 0.81 cose the bundle is made for 0.72 (but can still work with 0.81) so installs in '(Storage Card\)Program Files\TCPMP' while 0.81 installs in 'Program Files\ TCPMP (something)\Player' with the 0.81 try moving the files from 'program files\tcpmp' to the file for the 0.81 version then try again.

install tcpmp cab first then install the flv plugin cab in the same location you installed tcpmp.

I can browse to youtube.com in my browser...I can click on "watch video"...then when the rtsp:// stream comes up, it opens windows media player, then I get "An unknown error 0X8007274D has occured." and it doesn't play the video.
I am not married to WMP, so if there is anothe rplayer that is faster, less bulky, like VLC but for mobile and can handle youtube streams, then I will be happy to use it, or can I get a flash plugin to make youtube work on my Titan lik eit does on a normal pc? with streaming flash?
Or if you have a way to make WMP work and not erro-out, then that's fine to, thanks.

USE TCPMP WITH FLASHVIDEOBUNDLE....POSTED ALL OVER THIS SITE SO TAKE A SEARCH...I heard to not feed the noobs when they post like this...Next time search and read...read...and read....then ask for help. Im a noob myself and have learned that by not asking questions that are answered a million times before...you tend to get help easier when needed.
I am not a noob. I already tried TCPMP or I wouldn't have posted this, duh!
I installed it, then put the designated files in the root dir. tried it before a soft reset and again after, and when i click on a video to watch in youtube it says "TCPMP does not support rtsp protocol"
So try not being so harsh sometimes, you kinda came off as a jerk.

you'll need to download the htc streaming media player, becuz the wmp doesnt support it
If you only want youtube then download youtubeplay by milesmowbray its the pastest way to watch

Noob or not you should STILL read these threads and learn how to do things properly (Especially the instructions )
First download the latest Flashvideo Bundle CAB if you don't have it already.
Install TCPMP to your SD Card
Once TCPMP has installed copy the Flashvideo Bundle CAB to the TCPMP Folder that was created in Progam Files directory in your SD Card
From within the TCPMP program files directory initiate the installation of Flashvideo Bundle and save it to your SD Card
Then soft reset.
Once restarted launch TCPMP and check all the necessary file association options that you would need.
Now you can launch internet explorer --- visit youtube.com (full version) and you should be able to view Youtube videos automatically from TCPMP
though i am not sure what everybody uses youtube for so much. what does everybody watch all the time?? anyway....try veveo (veveo.com). love it b/c it searches more sites and plays great...good luck
Thanks for clearing this up CARLOS...Do I really come off as a JERK? I thought since I supplied the solution that I was being nice. And that I related to Him that I was also a NOOB(which he/she wants to deny) that I wasnt hurting his feelings. I merely pointed out what every sticky in every forum states...READ before posting.
If you just want youtube you can use youtubeplay...Think I found it somewhere on this site. Nice if your just using for youtube...built in player and downloader/streamer...metioned a few post above...figured I would post.

TCPMP doesnt work on my phone. There are two versions of the xv6800, some that work right, and some that are a pain in the butt...I guess for $80 I got one of the pain in the but phones. I cannot use any roms or anything other than stock rom/radio, so oh well. i can live with it for $80, lol.
besides, my friend has 3.1.2 on his xv6800, and mine actually runs fast on stock rom. so make me happy.

After following Carlos' directions...what happens when you go to play video...When you click on the vid from youtube...you should get a few options....play...stream...and I believe Link.... Is it doing this? IF TCPMP is erroring out check the tcpmp folder and make sure you have the flvsplitter and flvffmeg files.
that veveo works really good,i dont know why i dont hear more about it. just go to www.vtap.com from your phone and it goes right to the right install page, pretty easy
i followed the instructions to the letter...when i click "watch video" is still openes TCPMP then says "RTSP protocol not supported", and I have both the files for flash support in the TCPMP folder.
No worries, I uninstalled TCPMP and just used the youtube CAB file provided earlier in this thread and it works great Thanks!!

Are you going to youtube.com and not the Mobile site? You have to be at the youtube.com and choose the desktop version.From what I read the mobile site is in .3GPP which is not supported... I believe you can still download the videos and watch them in tcpmp.I never stream cause its always is choppy...NO 3G

I just tested TCPMP again to make sure that the flashvideo bundle still works.
It still works and doesn't need any updated version.
Who knows he might be using an old version of the Flashvideo bundle, he might not have the file association for flashvideo checked, or he isn't viewing youtube.com with pocket internet explorer.
I use TCPMP alot. I watch several movies on my xv6800. The quality isn't that bad either even when I stream youtube using WiFi.
Yeah wouldnt go without tcpmp...Streaming with wifi is great but when I stream on 1X service it blows...buddy has TILT with 3g and pisses me off....Could just be Stock rom....that was just a joke....I attached the same cabs I was using so it should have worked if installed correctly.
you tcpmp users are really missing out...i dont know if it is the decreased ram usage or what, but the cab file actually modifies the shell rather than installing additional memory hogging software...besides I can stream over both 3g and 1X with the youtubecab just fine.
its hard to find a 1X area where i live, but i tested youtube streaming on 1X, a 4minute video, played the whole way through without buffering. i guess im just lucky.
thanks for the cab file again guys.
-connor
Pretty sure Titans dont have 3g...or at least I havent heard of it or seen it....If your just using titan to watch youtube than youtubeplay is the way to go...But your very limited to playback on your titan...wmp doesnt support neary as many formats as tcpmp... Have you tried Downloading off of youtubeplay...It downloads in FLV and evertime I have used that and downloaded it has to play in tcpmp since I believe the youtubeplay player is only for playing streamed vids.
