Is there anyway we can get embedded mobile website videos working. For example the videos on m.cnn.com. When I try to click on them, it attempts to load them in the media player then says unsupported file type or something.

Give us a clue, what tools?
Have a look at http://www.videodl.org/ it lets you download the file and points you in the direction of tools to convert them.
Doesn't vlc play flvs?
V
youtube downloading
VLC is great for nearly everything however i couldn't get it to open .flv files.But
Total Video player does and so does FLV player 1.3.3.
If you key the question into google "How to download videos from youtube ?" you get various results.I use the mozilla firefox browser ,with the greasemonkey plugin, then when on you tube a red box appears at the top of the video page via which you can right click the save-as link.You need to change the file name that you save to something like beatles.flv, madonna.flv etc.
try these links:

Most of the conversion programs seem to be commercial only at the moment ,but most have a trial period of about 15 days.To date I have managed to download some of my old favourite vids of the 80s and transfer to imate jam!!!
Good luck guys , its all Do-able.
Youtube Without Downloading Videos
http://discussion.wmexperts.com/showthread.php?t=148801
full youtube access without downloading the flv files separatly...
ytpocket.com
works great for me. It proxies the youtube videos for you.
Just need tcmp and flash video bundle installed, then go to ytpocket.com
Streams them so you do not have to download the whole file just to view.
i have this application that makes youtube work with windows media player its called "HTC STREAMING MEDIA.CAB" i dont kno how to upload it to the site s0o hit me up at [email protected] for it, you basically install it and then go to the youtube mobile site and click watch video and windows media player pops up and says buffering and it buffers realli fast over the T-Mobile Edge network and then after it buffers to 100% its plays the video
Thanks
We know already, but thanks anyway. No need to upload it, we can just download it here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341867
I have the mogul and I have been trying to watch youtube videos but I get this "Windows Media" error in Media Player when the video trys to stream. The error says "An unknown error 0X8007274D has occoured". What do I do? Thanks!

Snag this instead, much better than Youtube's mobile site.

Also, try m.vtap.com or their respective vTap mobile video application from their website. It searches most major video sites.
Does anybody know how to setup our IE so that it will not trigger streaming media player, and load the flash video inside IE instead?
I know that even someone can did this, IE still cannot support youtube in desktop website (which is Flash 10 content). But, in some occasions, playing flash video directly in the broswer will be very handy.
Thanks
youtube in IE works fine here, embeded youtube vids too, I've never seen it open streaming video player for flv
For example : http://www.youtube.com/results?sear...&search=Search&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&spell=1
When viewing on computer, when searching songs etc, featured video will be on the top, most of the time will be official music video.
However searching on phone using the youtube application, there wont be a featured video and even we have the direct link to the official music video, it can't be played. It will say "The video is not available for mobile"
Any ideas to make youtube searching be the same as computer and able to view those video that wont be available on mobile?
Did you use the youtube player to search the video... ?
Or just the webservice..?
I use both youtube application and browser to search but both is the same, can't display the offical music video of any songs.
try using another app like jetvd, u can search youtube that way and it plays videos that the youtube app cant. and if u long hold on it, you can actually download the video as well

lol.
Sure, write the content provider a strongly worded letter than you don't care for their copyrights and wish to view things on your phone.
The reason is they have the rights to show the video on a computer only. Those rights don't transfer to mobile devices or devices hooked up to a TV, like the PS3, Wii, or Google TV.
@isiyou125: OMG Thanks, it work now!!
@iead1 : You're wrong, the jetvd apps make it able to play it on mobile!
No. I'm right.
The app you're using is a way to circumvent copyright protection. Officially, YouTube doesn't have the mobile rights to that video.
Yea correct. Anyway I don't care about it when I still able to watch those video "not available on mobile" on my mobile.
