YouTube video - what's the best solution?

---

When I go to www.youtube.com in Pocket IE, it automatically re-directs to "m.youtube.com". So far so good - everything comes up including the thumbnails. Click on any thumb and you get the expected screen including "Watch Video". BUT ... clicking on that produces an error screen that says "Running a system command on this item might be unsafe. Do you wish to continue?"

Clicking YES only results is a "rtsp ... 3gp" file can NOT be opened.

So, how did this guy back on June 18, 2007 do it on the Touch as shown in this video ??

I thought that the Sprint Touch supports 3GPP streaming out-of-the-box ?

You need a program called HTC streaming media. Just Google it.

Streaming YouTube on WM6 (Touch included I'd assume)

This would help
http://ytpocket.com

It's a 2-steps thing:
- Download the TCPMP
- Play Youtube content.

HTH....my 2 cents

second for VTAp. Has videos from all google videos, youtube, and a few other places. Its like connected so its updated the same rate the sites are updated as well. Its just overall great!


i think it s!

is any1 having trouble? i did the ytpocket and when visit youtube on PIE my phone pretty much freezes up...

vTap works great ... thanks for the input !!

vtap is the best that is what im using. works like a charm.

i tried vTap and its okay, but the thing that pisses me off are the load times and the ****ty quality. so i went with typocket.com, they have 2 easy installs that take less than a minute, with GREAT FULL SCREEN quality and super fast load times, almost seems like its streaming

so give ytpocket.com

I've got ytpocket and tcpmp installed. Some reason all videos are very choppy, sound is clean but video looks like its refreshing slowly (like if you don't have the proper video card drivers installed on your pc thats how it looks) Its not buffering or anything.

Are there any tweaks I have to apply to get better video frame rate?

Go into options and switch it from DirectDraw to raw and your videos should be smoother.
