Hi
Is there a way to keep YouTube videos (or any other videos for that matter) playing in high quality, rather than having to click the left key -> More -> Watch in high quality every single time?
Cheers
you can find several apps that can download YouTube videos in the market
in the market type YouTube downloader and apps should appear
I tried a few and liked jetvd the best, however I use freedi YouTube downloader - its been discontinued but you can still download from the developers site an old version and install it.
I also saw that there's an app called freedi YouTube download helper but you need to have dolphin browser or login with YouTube account so I didn't bother with it
hope u got wat ur looking for
Just use Skyfire and go on the full YouTube site, it should automatically play them in HQ.

Hi, i know the touch diamond has a you tube application, but does it allow you actually download the videos and watch it later without any connections. or is there any other application that will allow me to download youtube videos??
Thanks !
Well I know you can paste the youtube url of the video on a site like keepvid.com and it lets u dl the file in mp4 format, and use the built in video player to play it smoothest
No, the YouTube application does not allow one to save the videos to the device, though I can say it is a great little application. They seem to have kept it rather basic, yet done a great job with it.
You have access to what I believe is all the videos from YouTube, so not like with the iPhone where you had videos compressed and put into a format suitable for iPhone.
With the YouTube application, you can Bookmark your favourite videos, search videos, see lists of top rated, featured and most popular videos, you can send someone links to the videos by email (not really looked at that feature) and there is the setting where you can have it on fast download or higher quality streaming and then there is auto which I think is based upon your internet connection speed.
To watch the videos, there is no better application out there that I am aware of. I also use CorePlayer occasionally too.
As the previous poster mentioned, you can access YouTube through your web browser, take the URL, copy and paste it in at Keepvid.com and then save the file to your device that way.

Is there a way to download the youtube videos with the xperia besides using youtube download sites? Like the firefox download helper extension?
download youtube with youtube downloader
In fact,I feel the online website of downloading youtube has slow speed,I hate that.
So I prefer to download youtube video with software.
Here is a totally free youtube downloader,hope it'll help you.
Oh that only works on the computer, i use a firefox extension for that. Anyway, i found a prog for X1, called web video downloader i think.
Hey guys, I wanna know if i can play youtube videos in the youtube app after i click on a video on the browser..Like the Ipod.
Basically when i click on the youtube video/link in the Internet browser (Opera) how can i make the video play in youtube app automatically without viewing it on the web browser itself...
Sorry for my bad english
Thanks.
bump....any help ?
2 ways... 1.... make IE your default browser and it will load the mobile version of the youtube site. When you click the video, it will open the youtube app to play or option 2.... Click the link, into opera you go... Change tjhe youtube link that is loaded by adding an "m" in front of youtube. So it should read... www.m.youtube.com.(remainder of the provided link) then it will properly load the mobile youtube link. Click the video and the youtube app will launch.
Cool it worked...Thanks alot for ur help
Use Skyfire. Full flash support. Youtube videos will play directly on the browser

Ya, like dial-up circa 1995 slow.
i tried going to failtube with ie, it works a lot better than skyfire as far as quality is concerned. in opera, you can do the same by turning on "plug-ins" under the options --> advanced (or something to that end). it works sometimes, other times it doesn't. beats me why.
I've got the 10.1 flash and it was updated today too but any flash videos I watch are often juddering. It's almost like stop motion animation. Does anyone else's player play ok? If I use skyfire browser they generally play ok but I prefer the stock browser.
Also, on previous phones if I click a YouTube link from a forum the YouTube app would open to play it. On my dhd it goes to the YouTube site to play and then I get the juddery issue above. Is there a way of making the YouTube app open automatically when clicking a link?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
On my phone all the flash videos play fine and in HD. (it played fine with the original flash that came with the phone, but I have now installed the one from the market to be sure to get the latest updates).
As for youtube, all the links open in full screen in the player (sometimes I need to click on the icon to get it to open in fullscreen).
The DHD comes with youtube 1.6, but I have updated it with version 2 from the market.
Could you post a link to a flash video youve watched that played smoothly so i can check mine?
EDIT: for example can you play this video smoothly?

No, this one judders as well. But when you play it there is a popup text that says "This video is not optimized for mobile devices". So, the website is at fault for not providing a web optimized video.
But this is the first time I have a problem with a video, all of the other flash videos I have come across always play properly.
You can try the videos on bbc.com, cnn.com, youtube.com, etc... Either you will get a popup asking you if you want to play the video in the play or you can play it on the page.

It's there, the only youtube version I see on the market is version 2.0.26.
Usually when you can't see something in the market it's because it isn't avaialbe for your area. I don't know if this is the problem you are experiencing.
Google also provides it at m.google.com/youtube , but I don't know if it's the same version.
Is there a way I can download YouTube videos on this tab? Whether it be through a site or an app?
The answer is yes! There are many apps on Google store that can do this just put a search in
I've went to the market and typed in YouTube and tried to find something and typed in download YouTube and didn't find anything
yesssssss! snappzmarket
yes there are many but i believe they were taken off go to http://m.snappzmarket.com/ and download its an alternative app store where you can get paid apps for free...
then search tubemate on snappzmarket might have to update it though should be good
allows you to pick quality for downloading and viewing its a nice app
link for the .apk if you dont want snappzmarket http://m.tubemate.net/

+1 for TubeMate
Not the most appealing UI , but works good. Fair trade off. Lets you pick from different qualities. Lets you log into your YouTube account and access your Favorites and other account stuff.
The UI looks better on the a500 tablet it does on my G-Nexus phone though.
I use it all the time to quickly load my tablet or phone with music videos, then use iMediaShare to beam across to my PS3 and 360 for viewing or copying to console HDD (PS3 only).
If I only want to view/copy YouTube vids on the PS3, then I just use iMediaShare and skip the TubeMate - to - droid device step.
