Sprint HTC Hero :: Playing Videos From Youtube?
Oct 29, 2009I thought I could go the the main youtube.com website and play videos? Don't we have flash lite on the hero? Does anyone get videos to play or are we only limited to the youtube app?

I did a search and did not come up with too much. But I was wondering if you can set up " watch in high quality " as the default setting when watching youtube videos? Had the Hero for over a week and mine is not laggy at all "swipies"and still loving it. Loads great no major issues at this time.Except always mis-spell words.

View 7 Replies View RelatedSo here is the story. I'm at my local Sprint store fondling the new EVO and contemplating when I get an upgrade and maybe I should get one or should I wait or.Anyway, the phone was fully functional and on 3G, so I thought I would check out YouTube. I brought it up and searched out a video I had watched before and cued it up. When it played, and for whatever reason, it had super resolution and looked great, but it would not play more than a few seconds without stopping then starting, stopping and starting again, etc. I thought this was pretty weird, so holding the EVO in my other hand, I pulled out my Hero and cued up the same exact YouTube video. When the vid played on the Hero the video guality and resolution were not as good as the EVO's, but it played perfectly and seamlessly all the way through, no starting and stopping at all.

It doesn't happen often and a restart of phone always fixed it before but now that's not working.Cleared cache etc but nothings working. What can cause this and how to sort it?
Its a stock rooted gb rom and only happened when avasts hidden app didn't uninstall after getting superuser rights and I had to freeze the hidden app then uninstall it with titanium backup. It did say (avast) something about doing something to nand.
I'm using the moment with offical 2.1 release. I have it rooted with joey v7 and with live wallpapers.
I cannot play youtube videos on the sprint network or on wifi. Everytime without fail I get a message saying "cannot play at this time"

View 7 Replies View RelatedI want to learn how to stream youtube video in high quality mode (similar to those videos you watch from your android phones on the YouTube app) .I have been scouring the net to find code examples and tutorials about streaming youtube videos in high quality but those are not the ones I wanted. The examples that I found are about streaming 3gp video format and I don't want those because they are choppy and seem pixelated. how to develop an app similar to the one as YouTube app? I know some of you may say, "YouTube app is already doing what you want to do, why bother writing something similar". I want to learn how it works :)

View 1 Replies View Relatedwhen playing videos the framerate is really poor, and sometimes it just plays the first few seconds of the vid and stops, but the audio continues. So, basically my question is, what are the best ideals for a video to play on the hero

I just got the gsm hero. on a site that has embedded you tube videos, how do I play them in the you tube app? otherwise, it plays the video in the htc flash player and the video is jumpy and bad looking.

Do all the earpieces support streaming or playing music/sprint tv audio/Google listen?Are they all mono or do some single earpieces have stereo?Is there an industry standard for noise reduction that I should look for in the feature list? Any other tips if I just want to buy one and be satisfied its the right one?
so I have all of my .mp3's on my PC by artist, then subfolders, albums. I have retagged them all. I have a total of 15 artists, 26 albums, 340 songs. I dragged and dropped the folders over to the SD card under "Music". I then fire up the music player and my "Now Playing" screen, at the very top, under "Now Playing" it's only showing 1/100. I can scroll through the albums, but it's not listing all of them. How do I get all albums to show on the now playing screen? Or is it even possible? This is driving me nutz!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI downloaded a movie via a torrent then converted it to MP4 format via Videora. The transfer from my computer to the HTC Hero looked good. However, when i go to "music" on my phone, I don't see the movie there. I only see audio files. Is there something I'm doing wrong? As a side note, when i check the properties of this video on my PC, it says Opens with: "Unknown Application." Could this be the problem?

View 1 Replies View Relatedi was just curious if anyone out there has removed the apk for YouTube on Fresh 1.1? i've heard that removing apk's can sometimes bring unwanted results anyhow, i removed it cuz i never use it - and it has to be manipulated to work anyhow...i end up just using the browser.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI haven't had any luck trying to upload videos to either facebook or youtube. When I do the email thing that facebook offers, it replies that they do not support that kind of file, and if I try to upload them or send them as messages, it tell me that files are too large. I used to have a Touch pro and I was able to upload and send video files to others.
View 1 Replies View RelatedA little disappointed that there does not seem to be a native way to directly upload videos taken on the phone to Facebook (or anywhere else for that matter). Is there an app available or a way that you can do this? Bit of a pain to have to pull from the card on my computer and upload on my PC to FB. I have Qik (app) but dont want / shouldnt have to use it everytime I want to share a basic video.

When I play the voice mail I hear nothing. The time bar moves as it is playing, but nothing can be heard. This has been happening for the past 3 days. I then have to access my VMs through the traditional "Dial #1" portal. I love visual VM though, and would like to fix this. Does anyone know what the problem might be and/or have had this problem before?
Note: I am not using a task killer, and I don't even have one downloaded on my UNROOTED Hero.
I have installed Meridian for playing my mp4 video files. I have started converting my avi's to mp4. I was testing some of the first ones and Meridian. I like this player but I have a question about its use. How do you stop a movie that is playing? It is easy to pause a movie but I don't know how to stop it other than using a task manager and killing it.
