YouTube videos open in Streaming Media with audio only, no video - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps

When I first got my Tilt 2 I could play youtube videos fine, but now I just get audio, no video. When I launch youtube URLs they open in the browser and get redirected to m.youtube.com. When I click "Watch Video" it launches HTC Streaming Media, the About screen shows 3.10h (Build 1918.1332). The app connects and buffers just fine, and the sound is fine, but no video. The screen is just black (or grey actually, sometimes with random back bars). No difference in Portrait or Landscape mode.
I'm still using the AT&T ROM, I've installed a few apps but no media players. If I manually launch the YouTube app from \Windows\YouTube the video and audio are great. This About screen shows 2.6 (Build 1917.4121).
I searched this forum and the general forum for youtube and "streaming media" but didn't find an answer.
Did I do something to change the default player for RTSP? Should I even bother fixing the Streaming Media app or just figure out how to change the default player to the YouTube app?

youtube URLs never open in the youtube app as far as i know. but try a hard reset because even in streaming media, you should be getting video.

I've got a lot of apps installed and custom settings, it's not worth a hard reset just to get youtube videos when everythign else works.
Does anyone have any troubleshooting suggestions?

Have you tried Pyrorobs youtube update?
Streams fast and works allright.
It only doesnt support landscape atm.

Hello... First, my English is not very good, i using Freya ROM, 23138, it's very good... but i have sound problems when stream from youtube using Streaming Media, there is no sound, only video is playing, i can't set up eny other player to be default streaming player when i open opera mini and m.youtube.com to stream. How can i fix sound problem in streaming media when i watch youtube stream? Any codec, or fix, patch, reg key or something to fix that stupid problem? I try using TCPMP end registry change rtsp key, opera mini than doesn't recognize stream and then i see rtsp error, i have all plugins installed for tcpmp and youtube and codecs. Please help me to use streaming media, i like it, or setting up other default rtsp player (example TCPMP)! Thanks

Youtube and "Streaming Media" Application

Hi All,
Wonder if you can help - When I browse to youtube it defaults to the mobile view, which is fine - When I select the video I want to watch it opens up the stream in the "streaming media" application. It seems to buffer correctly but when playing back, the video quality is terrible, very jumpy, very blocky and the sound isnt too great either.
Is there anyway to solve this? I have tried installing the flash cab and viewing the videos normally on the youtube page, but it doesnt display the youtube vids. I have also tried to install the HTC youtube app, but it breaks my video playback - It works if I install the full htc hd manilla cab but then my phone really lags in file explorer when viewing the windows directories etc..
Is there something I am doing wrong?
Craig
Try CorePlayer, the quality is much better, but the app is not free.

CorePlayer youtube "Unknown file format"

Anyone else try the little youtube button in coreplayer? Any video I open says "Unknown file format." Why do they have a youtube player if it cannot play youtube videos?
I'm still looking for the best way to watch youtube videos.
Thanks!
But it can play youtube videos, at least on my phone.
Are you playing them through coreplayer itself? When I browse youtube through opera it opens the videos through the streaming video player, but not coreplayer.
I believe that some of the YouTube formats have stopped working in CorePlayer as YouTube have played about at their end.
Had heard that a fix had be built for UIQ, but haven't got around to looking to see if a new version is out for WinMo

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes. I haven't watched that many videos (it's not a regular thing for me) but the few I've watched were all played by the coreplayer itself.
OT:
I do have some problems with podcasts. does anybody know of any good podcast client for WM.
Thanks, well I just bought it recently so will have to wait for an update I guess. Also, does anyone else experience freezes in coreplay when changing videos? It doesn't happen everytime for me, but sometimes it freezes and I have to do a reset.

Watching FLV video in IE instead of opening steaming media player

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

Youtube videos open with Streaming Media player

The Youtube client is a no-go for me. It would just "connecting.." endlessly and would not play at all. Is there a way so that when I'm browsing on Opera and come across a youtube video that when I press play, it would open the streaming media player instead of the youtube player? I look in the registry under opera to see the default player setting but didn't find any. Basically I don't want to use the youtube client program at all, and would rather have all the youtube videos be open with the streaming media player instead. Any help? thank you

Hotspot video streaming

I can stream video from my phone flawlessly using hotstop (without using data) samba and es file explorer. But now I'm having issues with VLC. Yesterday, VLC worked the best, it loaded the video instantly. The other video players have a small buffering time before playing the video after which they run flawlessly too, you can even skip to any part of the video and it works. Also VLC skipped instantly, the others have a slight lag. Today VLC will not play the video at all, it's the only player that won't, it's just strange that nothing has changed in my tablet or phone but VLC won't load the video and yesterday it could. When I click on the video and have it play through VLC, VLC starts, it tries to load the video, and then it just closes after a few seconds.
It's not a big deal, I just like that VLC hides the bottom bar, MX player doesn't, neither does any other player I have except for the regular android player, which won't allow me to change any settings on the aspect ratio so I don't like using it.
Any ideas? Maybe another player that hides the bar? Although I would prefer if VLC worked again through hotspot streaming.
