My phone seems to be successfully rooted with unrevoked. But for some reason I can't play a vid without the error message coming up and saying,
Cannot play video, sorry this video cannot be played. Is there anything I can do to help this?

Try a video in the correct format. Odds are the videos you're trying to watch cannot be played by the stock video player. Download rock player from the market and see if it can open and play your video. If it can then you know you've got the wrong video type for the stock player.
they play for about 15 20 seconds then the error comes up....but i guess ill try ur advice....
I have noticed in the last few days that my tab will pause anyvideo about every minute and force me to press play again. This happens in every player and netflix. all i have to do is press play again and then it will go another minute roughly. Any idea?

So disabling the Background Data option has fixed the issue at the moment. Any ideas as to what you guys think could be updating every minute and could possibly affect the video would be awesome.

I notice youtube videos pause often for some reason but other players are fine here.

Is there anyway to do this? I don't usually want to watch the video in the embedded browser. I want too use YouTube app. Makes sharing video to tv ect a lot easier.

Clear defaults for the YouTube app. Then next time you launch a YouTube video from the browser choose open with YouTube then, always.

This doesn't work anymore. Clear defaults is grayed out and it appears that the video plays within the browser now. Aosp browser included. Maybe html5?

Mines doesn't. It plays it in the browser, nothing comes up asking if I want to continue in Chrome or Browser or YouTube. Clear Defaults is grayed out. Hmm let me try clearing browser
edit: nope.
Clear defaults isn't grayed out for me. All stock, never been rooted 4.2.1
Mine doesn't give the option to set what to use it always jumps to youtube app, which is annoying, since I would prefer to read comments sometimes while watching the tinny portrait version in the browser..
Clearing chrome or youtube doesnt make a difference for me. 4.2 stock.
Very awkward that we all have different results lol

When I am in mobile chrome site and go to watch a youtube it shows in the browser and when I am in the desktop mode and go to watch a youtube it goes to the youtube app.
If you click the play button it will play within the browser, if you click the title of the video on top it will launch the youtube app at least this is the behavior on mine.
ok so you guys are getting conflicting results opening vids from the browser because your telling the video to play a different way, and also it depends on how the video is coded into the sight. if the website your on has the video embedded and you just click the play symbol on it, it will most likely play in the browser. if you click the youtube link in the bottom that actually takes you from watching the embedded youtube vid to watching it on the youtube website, then it will give you the option to either play in the browser or in the youtube app. also, some websites automatically see that your using an android so they will link you to the youtube website automatically.
I can tell you that regardless of where I touch my original unit. It would load via youtube app and never in the browser. Stock 4.2. My replacement unit plays in the browser.

I have the same behavior, but would prefer that the big play button would open it in the YouTube app.

No videos can be streamed throughout the OS. I am on CM and neither YouTube nor Facebook nor any other videos seem to be streaming. I tried all popular players including the Android one but all say 'can't play this video'. I use tubemate to download them but that's too frustrating. Please help.
