Hi Nick,
I'm guessing you are using the bundled Opera 9.7 to browse these sites?
If so, the Flash 3.1 for Opera (I got it from the X1 forum) seems to work for a lot of the sites on my HD2, but there again, I use Skyfire now anyway.

hi nick, flash support for hd 2 has been dropped. it was going to be upgraded, there was even a vid done by the official guys showing the soon to be released version working on our phone playing internet videos and playing flash games but its all been dropped in favour of the new windows 7 phones. sorry to be the one to give you the bad news bud.

I tried this application on my Touch Cruise, but Opera is getting too slow to work with, infact, it will crash and have to soft reset.

LooL.... Be carfull of PornTube.... I have heard its a trojan site that requires you to download a file and run it, in order to play its nookie movies !
Nogs
BTW does the Touch HD come with flash lite 2.x?
If so, do you have to remove that first before installing flash lite 3.1?
Nothing to remove... Just install flash 3.1 on your device and it goes!
Put it on and took it straight back off again.
Works on Youtube - just about - but not on iPlayer or anything much else I tried for that matter. On Youtube it's choppy and imapcts the interface. I also had my SIP pop up everytime I tried to zoom or pan the page. I may have seen a fix for that somewhere in the Forums but frankly can't be bothered as it's not that much worth having as it stands.
I appreciate this is close to cutting edge stuff but it's taking an age to get this sorted for Opera.

tried it, its not compatible with the screen resolution, I was using this on my Kaiser and its by far the best browser I've tried. It does indeed play embedded flash content
My only disappointment of the HD so far, lets hope its updated soon.

i shall from now on,bombard those skyfire developers on their website with requests to make it compatible with the touch hd ha ha..yeah hopefully there will be an update soon
The thing is that this flashlite version is just a leaked version of the original adobe one, which is still not released yet. we will have to waot a bit until they release the real verion which should then work without a prob
Sorry but to get this straight, are you saying that if I install this on a touch HD, its Opera will no only be able to support flash, but in terms of hitting a you tube video link, it will play in the stand alone you tube client a'la safari and iphone?

it means that youtube and other java based things will work like on your pc. so the youtube videos would run in the youtubepage without the need of opening the youtube application, even java games and more should work. but ofcourse, you can always watch youtube videos with the applicatiuon if you like.
i just got beta version of skyfire. It's working now with my HTC Diamond. Check it out.

does youtube work?
youtube is working great and some other video site or flash site. However, it doesn't connect when i use edge but it's working fine with wifi.
I've heard that people are stuck on "Locating" when you're not from the US
im in the uk and it runs fine except for youtube doesnt give me any sound.
anyone have this working with orb... i get an error downloading the stream file, any help would be great, im kind of tired always needing 2 browsers to get the content i want from the web
How To Download From other countries

Did you relly opened "get.skyfire.com" in PocketIE?
Opened with IE 6, gettin the "Locating.."
I installed the latest version on my Diamond but to be honest I am not too impressed by the resolution.
Is there a setting that enables vga mode? All the fonts and images look stretched as if it were QVGA, anyone else got this problem?
I think I might give this a try. Just wondering if anyone had any opinions when comparing it to Opera???
Here's the cab for you. If it will violate against the rights of the owner please feel free to delete that post (to mods) or tell me and I'll remove the cab.

Opera is FAR better as an everyday browser in my opinion.
I can see Skyfire being useful though, especially if browsing websites that have a lot of streaming media and flash. It's also quite good if you use sites like digg/reddit.
Facebook sucked and the homepage didn't render as it would on a PC so that was dissapointing, but I visit facebook using the iphone.facebook.com URL via Opera and that's quite good.
The application is supported by VGA devices like the Diamond, however, it certainly isn't optimised for VGA, as you will notice when you install and run it. The buttons look stretched, fonts don't look right and when zoomed out it looks quite pixelly
It's a good concept, however I feel that Skyfire has a way to go before it can compete with more stable browsers like Opera which is far more practical.

dailymotion, skyfire might work on it.
youtube yes, with the built in software, excelente.
MSM messenger yes, very good on the HD, you can also try Skype
You can play any video with CorePlayer, the performance can vary.
thanks
thanks man really appreciate your prompt reply but i was wondering coz recently i tried same sort of things in sony erricsion x1 which was really annoying with smaller screen and skyfire wasnt working on that not even any coreplayer did.
anyway thanks for you reply.

Yep the xperia got high resolution but the screen is smaller, skyfire only works on xperia and HD if you change the resolution to VGA. The latest coreplayer can play youtube and all video formats, it only lacks performance (decent hardware aceleration not supported)
sorry to bump this up,
I get my touch hd tomorrow and was wondering what i need to do to get msn messenger onto it?
thanks

hello xda community,
iam a big fan of crunchyroll.com and mysoju.com
but i cant watch videos from both site on my hd.
i have Dvha79 AdobeFlash3.1 plugin installed.
but still both sites saying "You eihter have javascript turned off or an old version of adopeb´s flash player"
is there any flash plugin which allows me to watch videos from both sites?
hi,
you won't be able to get a flash plug in to get those flash streaming sites work , it has to be special mobile site , like the you tube on the htc touch hd or the bbc iplayer which works fine with the opera , only if you live in UK , you can also get Live streaming from iplayer BBC NEWS 24 , click on your htc touch hd , should also work with other windows mobile phones like touch diamond / htc touch pro / vario 4 , site is : www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/iplayer , when you choose a video to play , a video player pops up and plays it in there.
Good Lux
try the wvga fix3(thread on here with the cab for it, just use the search) and skyfire browser.
thank you guys for ur answeres,

unfortunately i cant sign up for the beta test coz i live in germany.
does skyfire support flash for those video sites?
is there no other browser which u can directly watch videos from video sites like crunchyroll.com etc?
to download skyfire, use your phone navigator and this address :
get.skyfire.com

Thats simply not true. You have to use the right Flash and Opera version. Personally I'm using build 2392 with the flash mentioned above and it works just fine.
I really hope Skyfire comes out with a wvga version. I really like that browser. You can hit most flash sites with no problems.

Yes, I fully agree with you. The flash streaming is the best so far. But, just don't understand why it only available at north america. It should be release the beta to all the countries.
instead of dling skyfire from their site and using the wvga fix, search the xda forums for alpha skyfire (it's fullscreen and looks great)
