Better Youtube Player - EVO 4G General

Please help anybody. Now the You tube player on the EVO is OK, as being a user of the Windows mobile there is a player call Kinoma play. What i liked about Kinoma play was that it played each you tube video right after another without setting up a play list or anything it just played the next video after the current one was done. Now I've search Hi and Lo and haven't seen any player that would do this on Android and the EVO. Now what I have learn is if you put videos in playlist it will do it. But here is the Problem I do not know if Google has disable this feature or not. But anytime I go to my YouTube account and click on playlist to add videos it doesn't add videos so. I'm willing to take any advice on what to do. Do anyone know an App that will play YouTube videos automatic. If not that would be a great app I would be willing to pay for it.

The installed video player

I've been searching for a great video player for the TMO TP2 but some don't do it for me. Is there a way to set the installed video player that plays the Youtube to play all video including streaming. It might not have all codes to handle every media type but maybe there is a hack or cab to solve this waste of a great player.
Yea i love that player too. the only way i can watch the movies on my media card with that player is by going into the media album and when i open a video from there it uses the youtube player. would love to watch streaming videos with it as well.
How do I get to the other video player? Everytime I open a video file it opens with wmp. Ive been searching for a free good video player to play all my files.

Video in Locked mode?

Hello everyone,
Are there any ways to have videos play while the phone is in locked mode like the music player? Sometimes i can only listen to my videos at work and with the screen on, battery life can only last several hours. Any help please? Thank you!
anyone any ideas?
this might work.
A definite work-around is to convert the videos to .mp3s and play them via the HTC Music Player.
Not sure if you would like that, though....
that reminds me of a cab I have called youtube play. it has the ability to make mp3s of the youtube video as you download it. sucks as a youtube player, but this functionality makes it worthwhile.

Media Player?

I have been looking on youtube everywhere but nobody has demo the music player so i'm guessing its the same as on the Hero.Evo owners can u tell me if it is the same or post a pic of the music player?
its the same
get real player beta hands down the best
the stock player is pretty decent, but the best music player i have used is MixZing. read the reviews, it's awesome.
for video playback get mVideoPlayer
does Mvideo play any container?(or most containers?)

it is a thin wrapper around the android video playback architecture, so it will play what android normally plays. your best bet is h264+aac in an mp4 container with the proper settings (basically anything the iphone will play, without protection). it also adds some nice features the htc gallery app doesn't have, such as saving your spot in your videos, subtitle support, etc.
Cool thanks I was hoping for something that would let me play my files unconverted but with handbrake it's not much of a hassle to convert
It's pretty much the same as the Hero, but it seems to do steaming MP3s and whatnot now. Before with my Hero, it would have to download them, and then I would have to play them.
stock music i'm sure is the same.
there finally is a music player with an eq, but i don't remember where it is. i think the apk can be found in the nexus forums. seems to work okay.
right now, i'm kind of digging 'cubed' (actually named with a superscript 3 on the market, but if you search for cubed, you'll find it part way down the list). beautiful interface, and widget. i finally may have found an app worth donating to, lol
I like meridian .. have tried them all..
i don't have android phone... do any of the media players allow you to create playlists from the phone? that way i can dump all my music on my phone and organize it on the fly.

Does anyone know of a way to tell the cubed player which folders to look for music in? It keeps pulling in game sounds from sniper vs sniper....

Which applications to install first?

I'll be new to Android, and don't really know what is available. I did a search for Android Marketplace, and got "This is a showcase for some of the featured and top ranked applications and games available on Android Market. For a comprehensive, up-to-date list of the tens of thousands of titles available, check out Android Market on your handset."
It's not particularly easy to find stuff, when you don't really know what you're looking for. I will find out tomorrow what the marketplace is like, on the EVO.
But, in the few remaining hours before that becomes possible, I wanted to find a few applications to install and play around a bit and try to get a feel for the system.
So, what should I/will you install tomorrow (or later)? I'm sure I'll find some cool stuff on my own eventually, but some suggestions from current enthusiasts would be welcomed by me, and others I'm sure.
I figure everyone's got a favorite app or 5, how about some suggestions?
one of the neatest, but only useful in clear sky at night, outside, preferably in the country, is google sky maps.
fring rocks for syncing up skype and gtalk. you'll dig it for the new vid call thing, i'm sure
weatherbug elite is my weather app of choice
andexplorer is what i use to navigate through my sdcard
cubed is a good music app. very nice looking (app actually spelled with superscript 3, if you go looking for it on market)
chrome to phone is good for sending links to the phone, but i think it needs froyo
google navigation should come stock, but it's a rockstar
vlc remote
terminal emulator
others - where, layar, wikitude, and adfree for sure, if you're rooted
Excellent list, thanks!

Thank, but I am looking for something to play my locally stored music and videos, not streaming.
I found and installed the cubed app, but it just says it can't find files in the playlist or some such thing, and the only choice I have is to exit. So a no go on that one also.
I'll keep looking
let me know when you find it the player!
im kinda disappointed that there is no flash viewer (*.flv) for files that reside on the sd card. unfortunately it looks like we have to wait for coreplayer to come out.

[Q] Mobo player

I just downloaded mobo player and the codec file for it. I wanted to play video's directly on the internet on my xoom. I thought downloading this would help me but video's are still not playing?
I do not understand the media directory thing is there anything I am missing.
I picked media directory to be my downloads in my Astro file. This is right out of the box. I have done nothing to unlock or root this device.
Can anyone please explain to me what I need to do to play video's from a web page on the net. For example I went to a site for Las Vegas wanted to play video of Terry Feder show would not play?
I'm pretty good at following directions. I understand PC very well just learning about cell phones and tablets.
I only downloaded the codec file because the video still wasn't playing.
I do not want to do anything that will mess up my xoom?
Sorry I think I should have posted this in questions forum.
Did you try tapping and holding the video you want to play then selecting soft decoding? You have to do that to a large majority of videos for the xoom.
Yes I did. When the video appears on the screen there is a small blue dice in the center with a ? on it. There seems to be lots of videos that won't play. Is there anything in the codec file that I need to change. I saw the soft decoding for one of the video extensions?
Just found something that says default using soft decoding in settings I checked it. Still no luck. You tube videos play fine
When I tap the video the screen turns light blue but nothing comes up and their are no options available to select.
you said your trying to play videos from a site. What site and what video format? Link?
Go to metacafe.com any video it does not work. That is just one of the sites. I cannot tell what the video format is? How can i see that. On the right hand bottom of my screen it says autoplay ON. I do not know if that is from Mobo app or something else.
took a spin around the world wide web and seems the videos on your site metacafe are FLV files.
go to the market.. install one of these in the list and see if any will work.
not sure which ones are compatible with the xoom so just go in and check on the tech details. better yet go there with your xoom so it will filter out which ones will work.
you can also just search "flv player" w/o quotes in the market and see what you come up with.
https://market.android.com/search?q=flv+player&so=1&c=apps
That site seems to use a bunch of different kinds of video. Hulu videos wont work, but the flash videos will if you install flash, obviously. Moboplayer is for mp4, avi, mpeg, and other types of video commonly not found streaming on websites.
Just called Motorola and figured out that Flash Player needed to be downloaded. Do I feel stupid. I thought it came with it and was on it when I got it. I then went back to the site and the video played.
Do you think MoboPlayer will interfere with anything on my tablet. Should I remove it?
Or should I leave it. Don't even know if it works on the xoom. It did not work to get the FLV file working that is supports. Any input would be appreciated.
keep it. it can play other movie formats.
