Ok, so you can install Flash for Opera but it sucks - it makes the phone unstable and slow. However it would be great if you could do the same thing you can do on the iPhone - that is whenever there's a YT movie you see the play icon but when you click on it it opens the YT app and it runs the movie in it not in the browser. Is there a way to do the same thing on HD2 with Opera?

I don't know about Opera as it isn't my fave, but install Skyfire and abra kadabra Youtube and other streaming sites work fine

That's not what I'm looking for I think I was misunderstood. Sometimes when you read a page there is a YT movie embedded on it. On the iPhone you can click on it and watch it in the YT application. Here all you have is the border of the movie with no info. So you even don't know the URL of the movie and as result you cannot watch it (well you'd have to view the code of the page and search for the URL).
install skyfire, its much better so long as you don't mind not being able to pinch zoom.

I don't like Skyfire's interface. I'll just have to wait for Opera 10 - if it supports pinch zoom cuz now (in Beta 2) it doesn't...

When you go to m.youtube.com you are provided with thumbnail of the video clips. Tap on it and the video automatically plays in the built in HTC youtube application full screen.

I got it . But I was writing about the situation when a video is embedded on some other site than youtube - like toucharcade.com for instance...

What you are talking about only works in IE built in on the HD2. I just did it and it worked fine. Check out this short video I just made with it working in IE on the HD2.

No - I meant embedded video files on websites like here for instance: http://prowokacje.com.pl - as you can see if you open this website in Opera you won't be able to view embedded YT videos. As I can see it should work in IE (video in the post above) but IE sucks . I'd like to see the same feature in Opera or Opera opening YT movies in the YT app.

As I already said in the first post fixoperaflash makes the phone unstable and it freezes the browser. YT movies work muuuuch better in the YT app. Ok, I see there's no resolution of my problem right now so I'll wait for Opera 10 with Flash and pinch zoom.
I am also looking for the answer to this. Some cooked ROM's have this working. I know that the stock t-mobile one will NOT do this weather its the mobile youtube or full version in opera. There must be some reg edit that makes this possible. I know IE on the HD2 will do this properly out of the box but I don't use IE for browsing the web on the HD2.

Youtube is working in my PIE.. I have Flash 7 and the videos are showing in the browser? Anyone else want to try?
thnx 4 the heads up
Do you have WM6. Because on my Imate Jasjam with WM5 I get the message that the browser does not support Javascript. I can run youtube on Opera Mobile 8.65 Beta on the same device.

Are you referring to the mobile version of youtube? If so, yes - I'm able to get it to stream using streaming video on my 8525. Haven't tried the standard youtube site though.
The performance of Flash 7 and Standard YouTube is terrible on my Tytn/VarioII/Hermes.
Very choppy and CPU hungry....

Yeah.. only a few videos work but it is streaming in internet explorer which is nice. I'm not talking about m.youtube.com im talking about the standard youtube.
I do have WM6 also.. vp3g's rom.
Wait until video fully loads and IE stops downloading, then video works great..
is there a way to get flash on the device without using a desktop computer. I was looking at the site using pie and I can't find it. I could use my desktop but it seems that a mobile app should be able to get a mobile version minus the midle man.
Any links?

TRY WWW.TINYTUBE.NET
IT'S BEEN WORKING LIKE A CHARM FOR ME.
I am trying to access youtube using Opera 8.65, IE and PIEPlus 2.2 and at half way through loading up the page my Advantage freezes up. My only option at that point is to soft reset. I can go to any other page fine. Can someone tell me whats causing this?
Check that:
I can load the page with Opera but can't play video. Known issue with no work around at this time.

I just use vTap for youtube & Wikipedia - it's so much easier!

Agreed. vTap is fantastic. Quick and interactive (filters list of videos as you type search term). Videos stream and take about 5-10 seconds to start but then can go for minutes without interruption.

Hi,
First off, I have done my research! I promised... looked through the posts (Wiki page/Tips & Tricks..) and can't seems to find anything pertaining to this.
What I'd like to know is:
- Is there a way to view YouTube video embedded in a webpage (Web Browsing using Opera Browser that comes with my HD2) by using the inbuilt HTC YouTube app - Eg. tap on the YouTube video on a webpage, HTC YouTube app starting automatically to play the video.
Thanks in advance!
Douglas
Ps. HD2 ROCKS!!!
Hi
As far as i Know (my HD2 is on its way and my HD on Ebay ) the opera doesn't have a flash support yet but the IE mobile browser on HD2 does have flash embedded which means that you get a flash player startet by tapping on your video
I've seen that also on a review on youtube....
Cheers,
LEE
Thanks for your prompt reply.
I'm really want this to work in Opera browser... I suppose such is life...
works perfectly in Opera 10 Beta 2...click the video and it opens in the streaming player.

Hi... Did u have to install anything other than Opera 10 B2? As I'd just tried it out, and YouTube content on the webpage just shows a place holder with text showing "Plug In Content"... Did I do something wrong..?
As far as I'm aware, the only browser which allows this is Skyfire. I use that for video and Opera for all other browsing (as Skyfire is a bit pants really).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544770
Check out that thread. If you follow all the steps, you can also watch youtube and other flash sites in Opera.
It's also possible with IE and Skyfire.
I would prefer when browsing youtube, that it would open the youtube application, which gives better quality and speed.
The only way I've found for the youtube app to work is to stream from m.youtube.com with opera.
That's the only way I've got it to work its not the best as I hate the layout of mobile youtube but it works, like you, the youtube site on opera doesn't show any clickable links or videos for the hd2's youtube client to work with.
Well yes, I meant on m.YouTube.com, and other mobile sites. On a mobile after all.

Tks!
youtube works on Opera 10 without need for m,
Are you sure?
My Opera Mobile 10 doesn't stream youtube, mobile or desktop version.
Having a look to Opera's and other forums, it can't stream youtube...
Mine does, search around this forum for /TX Opera Mobile10 With Flash /in the settings enable Plugins.
but it does stream youtube through the streaming media player instead of the youtube player and the quality is quite decreased....
If it streams via any external player it's ok for me, it is important that it doesn't play in browser, because quality is worst...
It's exactly what I'm searching for, mine actually plays in browser or doesn't play, so, how to make it play in streaming player or youtube or core player?
The latest version of Opera will stream youtube video and depending upon your connection it is either good or bad.......
Are you sure?
My Opera Mobile streams no video...

The latest build? I know I've watched vids from some sites, possibly FB, and I'm sure YouTube works.
I install to my SD and never have an issue with any site.
Hey guys, I wanna know if i can play youtube videos in the youtube app after i click on a video on the browser..Like the Ipod.
Basically when i click on the youtube video/link in the Internet browser (Opera) how can i make the video play in youtube app automatically without viewing it on the web browser itself...
Sorry for my bad english
Thanks.
bump....any help ?
2 ways... 1.... make IE your default browser and it will load the mobile version of the youtube site. When you click the video, it will open the youtube app to play or option 2.... Click the link, into opera you go... Change tjhe youtube link that is loaded by adding an "m" in front of youtube. So it should read... www.m.youtube.com.(remainder of the provided link) then it will properly load the mobile youtube link. Click the video and the youtube app will launch.
Cool it worked...Thanks alot for ur help
Use Skyfire. Full flash support. Youtube videos will play directly on the browser

Ya, like dial-up circa 1995 slow.
i tried going to failtube with ie, it works a lot better than skyfire as far as quality is concerned. in opera, you can do the same by turning on "plug-ins" under the options --> advanced (or something to that end). it works sometimes, other times it doesn't. beats me why.
