Youtube app - Nexus S General

I was at the best buy store today and looked at the nexus s and I must saw im very impressed. Anyhow the guy in the store was talking about it having youtube 2.0 and being able to edit videos is this true?

Youtube app is exactly the same as on my Evo as far as I can tell.

Do you see issue with audio sync when playing youtube video?

evo 4g first youtube hq player?

Thats what htc said....
Dont we already have a hq player on our nexus? Plz clarify
Nexus One can show YouTube in HQ, but you have to switch it to play that way.
There is a hack on xda you can try that lets HQ work without messing with anything.
Yea i read it clearer now....
Ah, my nexus one still eats evo for breakfast tho
They might taking about 720p since the evo has hdmi out.

Youtube app misleading!!

The other day I was going at it with a friend of mine who ones an iPhone 4 (I got Evo 2.2). Youtube app let me down.
When you pause a video the downloading bar also pauses. It makes you think it also paused the download of the video to cache. His iPhone 4 showed the video pause but still downloading. He scored a victory .
After further review I noticed that video does continue downloading to cache while paused but the bar stops displaying the download. After you click the play button again one can see where the download is actually gone to in the bar.
I was wondering if this is only on my Evo of is it a bug of the app. Anyone else has this issue???

We all have this, its just the application. I personally think the YouTube application is trash. If you ever try to rewind then the app throws away all the cache of the video and makes you redownload it and the subscriptions feature is confusing and doesn't just show new unwatched videos like it should.
Using YouTube's mobile site is actually better, I hope some work will go into the YouTube app though.
Edit: I'm using CM6 8/24 nightly with the latest 8/17 gApps package.

Yeah the New Youtube app is junk.. I hate not being able to see certain channels by default, the TP2 youtube app was soo much better.
When My friend shows me his IPhone 4 youtube app, I say to him.. is your Optimized for HD? he was like ... umm.. should be..... The picture turned out amazing on my evo.. he was still trying to do HD...
Videos don't look as good thru the browser. Blame it on flash. The app displays the hq videos much better.

Mine never goes through flash when I go to the site. I hit the HQ button and it uses some streaming video player to actually play the video, not sure exactly what app, but its really bare bones. I get decent quality.
Yeah the YouTube player sucks. Wonder why there isnt a better YouTube player or more to choose from.

Does the Xoom block YouTube content?

I know the iPad will block lots of content, for no reason?
I accidentally discovered this after watching a Vevo video on my laptop but then when I tried searching for the same video on the iPad, it wouldn't even show up in the results.
Don't have my Xoom yet to test out.
Nope the android youtube app for honeycomb and froyo both have Vevo videos. I haven't seen any mobile blocked videos like I used to on my phone six months ago.
I was not aware of blocked content on the iPad, but no, by the looks of the the Xoom has everything youtube normally would.
I may have done something wrong, though I don't know how I could have, but "I Need a Doctor" by Dr. Dre from his VEVO channel would not play/load. Said it could not be loaded on mobile.
I tried this video on the Best Buy demo when I went to look at it. I was trying to think of a HD video I could play to try and see how it displayed. Since I just watched it previously, I knew it had 720p.
Can anyone play it on their xoom?

Vevo has it's own app, they don't show up in the normal android app, I don't think they ever did. Possibly different licensing issues at play here.

The Vevo app works fine on my Xoom..... till i go to play any video
If anyone else has Vevo working on their Xoom, Please let me know.
This may not help. But the VEVO app works on the XOOM. I watched some videos on it yesterday. Just remember to press HQ on each video or it looks like ****.

This is it. Google has some licensing agreements that prevent playback of videos on Mobile phones, but it's not bulletproof.
If you can't find it using the Youtube app, just go to youtube.com in the browser and you can view the video natively there.
With above.
Uploaders can specify wether they want to allow mobile devices to be able to search/view the video, at least with the Youtube app.

Soooper annoying. At least with VEVO app you can view music videos that were previously unavailable.
I recall with the EVO, the YouTube app blocked even more content.
VEVO will crash repeatedly. I had to use spare parts and turn off the Compatibility mode and now vevo works great.

YouTube HQ not working right?

So I went to watch my favourite music video on YouTube (Earl by Earl Sweatshirt, if you're interested xD). Anyways when I went to load it in landscape mode, the audio would play but the video would not move. So I turned off HQ, and it started working great! Albeit, the quality was greatly dampered. I am on Froyo using Cyanogenmod 6, the latest release and I am using the latest release of the YouTube client from the market.

nope, the HQ videos uploaded since Jan or Feb 2011 have a higher resolution compared to earlier ones (640x360 as compared to 480x360),so they just dont play.the 320x240 vids play as usual,so in a way HQ doesnt exist anymore for our phones,unless you r watching an older upload.
This just sucks,if not HQ atleast there should be resize/fit to screen options in the player so the video doesnt get tinier on the already limited space.
Thanks for the clarification.
I was wondering why some HQ vids work fine on my magic but most of the time I have the same prob with Smokexz heh.
I've noticed while running Gingeryoshi 1.1, using the Stock Browser allows you to watch HQ Videos. But there is a slight delay from the press of play, to the actual playback.
Sorry for the bump of this old thread, but is there really no recent rom that allows for the play of HQ videos? Does anyone know if installing an old apk of the youtube app allows it?

a hard reset might fix it
There is no flash for G1 though...

YouTube on Fire TV 4K stick experience

Could you please share your experience with this new app?
I have my stick connected to my 5.1 Home Cinema HDMI port. At theokwnt I'm getting 5.1 sound from Netflix and Amazon Prime.
I was hoping that with dedicated YouTube app I will also get 5.1 sound. When on 9th July I downloaded and installed this new YouTube app I was excited as I played my purchased movies and inhad 5.1 sound.
Today when I started watching another purchased movie it is only stereo. I checked other movies from my YouTube library and now they all play stereo. Netflix and Amazon Prime are still playing 5.1.
I'm wondering if google have changed something or YouTube app have been updated in a meantime.
Also the video quality I can select watching purchased videos is showing max 480p however the video looks like 1080p so not sure what's going on. For other regular videos I can change quality to 1080p.
Can someone suggest any fix?
Thanks for comments.
Update 1
I think google/YouTube is doing something as today I can see quality options to have 1080p included now. However the sound is still 2.0. Hopefully they will change this too.

It's already on the forum
