I'm not sure if this is a problem specific to my phone or an NC4 issue. From what info I've been able to find it sounds like it's a KitKat problem. The issue is that I can't get the news feed videos in the Facebook to autoplay. The videos play fine if I open them but the autoplay seems to be broken. I believe the FB app now uses HTML5 so I installed the HTML5 Supported app from the play store. All but 3 items indicate as supported. The 3 unsupported are:
background-repeat(round)
background-repeat(space)
cubic-Bezier values > 1
I'm not expert at HTML or HTML5 so I have no idea if these 3 items are enough to break the autoplay feature or not. What I do know is that the news feed videos autoplay on my PC browser but they don't play on the phones FB app or any browser I've tried. Is there maybe a fix for HTML5 for NC4? If not an HTML5 issue, does anyone know of a fix for this?

Hi,
The youtube panel is really great and I use it on a daily basis.
However, I noted that 18+ content is not displayed.
Is there a way to enable this?
Going to the opera browser and going to the youtube website is not an option as the flash 3.1 is not yet stable and opera crashes a lot when using flash.
Thanks a lot for your help!
I think you have to be logged in to view 18+ content.
Haven't tried the youtube panel, but if there is a way to log in, you will have to do that.
Youtube.com works that way.
There is no login feature for the youtube panel/program, I don't think.
However, you can download flash lite 3.1 and use it through the Opera browser instead.
or you could log into m.youtube.com and stream it
i dont think the penal allows logging in...
Thanks for the replies.
Looks like a login should be created in the panel/youtube application that runs on both xperia and touch hd.
go to account manager, there have two inputs facebook and youtube, my rom is jack 2.6~
When i open HTC YouTube app it doesn't load the thumbnails of the videos, only the gray tv icons! Does anyone else have same issue?
How can i fix this?
Thanks!
yes i have the same problem! i've searched for some answers and no luck. the google youtube works fine but it's not the same quality.
Me too! The same problem with HTC's Youtube client.
I noticed that under the history tab, some old videos i had viewed about a week ago had their thumbnails displayed whereas the more recent videos had none (an active internet connection is required to load these 'history thumbnails').
Also, from a "fresh" list of videos,if you click on the description button (!), a thumbnail sometimes loads on the description screen.
This leads me to conclude it's not the software, but somehow Youtube has stopped sending/changed the preview pictures that accompany the video description.
Is this just a temporary glitch, or does Google want us all to switch to its own viewer?
guys
go for the offical youtube app from google
its work for me and its faster than the htc youtube

download last version
http://m.google.com/youtube/download/binaries/L1/2.0.9/youtube.CAB
yeah o dont reallu like the google youtube version its faster but less quality. anyway i was having the same problem now is working fine. maybe it was a problem on the youtube server or maybe upgrading my sprint rom to the latest htc version fixed it.
Hey all,
I've noted that the recent iteration of Chrome behaves oddly when hitting on a video link.
For example, if I go to ESPN and hit on the play button, I'd hear the audio part in the video, but no video. The only way to get it to work is to get the link to launch in a new tab in order to select the video player that I want. This never happened before. My defaults are properly set.
Any thoughts on what this could be due to?
Thanks~
in chrome, mines show a pop up of what I want to use play the video. whether I want to use a browser, MXplayer, Stickit mediaplayer, or overscreen browser. it doesn't do it on all videos but I think its the ones not optimized for html5. or if its a flash type.
Hello everyone. I am having an issue with my Nexus 7 using Google Chrome Browser where it will not stream most online video from a lot of websites. If I go to the verge, or Engadget and try to stream there video reviews I get either an error or the video just freezes. I tried switching user agents to iPad, desktop, etc and still no luck.
When I use my iPad 2 to play the video on those websites it loads up and plays with no issues. I am also having this issue ona lot of other websites I come across.
Is this am android limitation or am I just missing a plug in or something.
Flash isn't supported on Chrome. You need to install latest flash apk and use either AOSP Browser ( you need to sideload this, serach the fourms you will get how to do that) or Firefox Beta , both these browser support flash videos. I have had smooth experience with AOSP browser so would recommend that. If you cant find it let me know.
The iPad doesn't support flash either and plays the videos with no issues. So I don't think flash is the issue. The videos are not flash but I'm not sure what format they are.
Did you try any other browser like Firefox or AOSP Browser whether you are facing same issue?
can you post the website? maybe we can try the site n see if its your device, or something we can help with.
Unless the site supports HTML 5 video you will need to use a different browser and install flash.

I tried it with the stock browser and it does not work with it either (fyi im using cm10.. here are the links)

Its the videos that are embedded with the page.
I looked at those and also found the videos did not play. This is strange because I can stream flas from other sites (flash apk in Maxthon browser).
The videos played fine for me ( it takes a half a minute before it starts playing ) on both AOSP browser and Firefox beta.
I am using Team EOS nightly 37 + franco kernel r25.
I've had my N10 for months but for some reason have never used iPlayer on it.
I went to use it today and when pressing the app it simply opens the mobile iplayer website in Chrome. Is this how it works? Have they been too lazy to actually make an app for Android tabs?
Also when I try to play something it tells me I need to install BBC media player. It is already installed.
I've tried reinstalling both apps and clearing their caches but I'm still having this same problem.
Can anyone help me out here?
just giving this a bump as I'm still having this issue.
I have the media player installed. I get this message even when I open iplayer via the media player app. I've tried clearing the cache of both apps but no improvement.
some help here would be great.
It is a bug that appeared in the last update. Hopefully they will fix it soon as I'm currently having to watch iPlayer on my phone.

I use AOSP browser or any other flash enabled browser like Firefox and play iPlayer in HD straight from the BBC website. I have never encountered a problem doing this. Just remember to request the desktop site in whatever browser you are using.
There are plenty of guides around on how to install and use flash on android 4.2 if you have not got it installed already.
