Does anyone know why i can't watch videos from megavideo with this or any other ROM?
I already installed flash 10.1 for android 2.1 and i can look youtube videos (like a desktop), but not from megavideo. It shows me another page
You probably need the version of flash in 2.2

there is only partial Flash 10 support in Android 2.1. So until we get FroYo, that's what we got.
Skyfire doesn't work. So we have to wait. Thanks all of you.
Moved to general as not development.
Please see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8475563&postcount=2 for guidelines on posting in development.
I feel your pain. I've tried and tried. Just have to wait for 2.2.

Skyfire DOES work. I haven't tried megavideo exactly, but other sites it works perfect. You gotta do some setting changes on your phone.. it was posted 4 weeks ago. Though it's not as good as having 2.2 flash..

If you haven't tried it, then you don't know if it works. And it doesn't. This is a Megavideo thread.

Your the one responsible for that Android Browser Hax eh?
since this is a Megavideo thread, may i suggest this application? it lets you download and stream any megavideo video, without flash player and without browser!

Google better make this right fast! come on guys, seriously..
you probably want the htc version of youtube. its the pretty red one. not the ugly google one. why didnt google just cab up htcs version?
Google stuff looks crappy by design. I pretty much like the HTC Youtube Cab, are there any significant advantages of the original one?

lol ya tried that one too. tells me installation unsuccessful. running official 6.5 and cf3.7 if that matters.
you need 2.5 for windows mobile 6.5.
Here you go.. found this today! go to the link and you'll find a cab for the stock HD2 youtube, it works perfectly on my touch pro 2. There are other great goodies to download from the link, thx to kurniawan77...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=639964
This is sort of my first real post, so hopefully I'm not doing anything wrong.
These are cab extracted from the HD2 and most of them work perfect on my touch pro 2
The YouTube cab is the one that came originally with the HD2 and similar/if not the same to the one that came with the touch pro 2. I tried it and it worked perfect!!!!
thanks to kurniawan77..
ENJOY!
tjworldgreatest, you are the best! of course that worked!! flawlessly, finally I don't have to cringe while watching some videos..I was never into the full user experience on Youtube, so I really don't care about my login stuff anyway..
does the hd2 version of youtube bring anything extra? i might get bored and install it.
^^not that I could tell..Looks exactly the same. Both versions are still 2.6..

Oh Yeah....
Your going to get that on any of the ripped HTC YouTube versions....they dont support landscape, expect for when the video plays.
With search and what not in the menus, you have to use on screen keyboard.
They arent meant for our devices...
the stock version of youtube for rhodium has landscape support.

Hey guys, I just noticed something when going through all my installed apps- The Evo comes with HTC Flash Player preinstalled on 2.1... And it works! Flash support out of the box. Was I the only one that was totally in the dark about this?
How do you get it working?
It just.. works. Browse to a site with flash content, and it should load.
Newgrounds works especially well.
cross my fingers for HULU!!!!!!!

Yeah HTC Sense comes with Flash lite. That's the problem though. It sucks lol. Oh and anyone who wanted Hulu once FroYo is released, bad news. Hulu blocked the user agent string fix so FroYo users can't get Hulu anymore.

not true. there is a modified flash apk in the nexus forums. it works on hulu.
Has the FB video playing issue been fixed yet?
Currently watching World Cup games through ESPN3.com on my Evo ...... SOOOOOOOO NICE.
Quality is much better than Sprint TV
You get to replay all the games and watch live ones
Full DVR controls with markers for each important part in the game
BTW, if Apple is still waiting for an example of Flash running well on a phone this is it.
have you tried other site
can you watch videos on fancast, online movie sites, or clicker,tv? what about dvix online videos?
Needs Froyo right? Just tried on Eclair and no go
damnn when are we going to be able to install froyo?
you can right now, there are two builds in the dev section, but niether are fully functioning
Can't you just install the flash plugin? I can watch several flash sites on my phone with 2.1
yeah i read somehting about the camera not working in one of them is there any clue when the official update will be?

Stock Eris ROMs have flash, it's called HTC Flash. We just have the requirements that Adobe put out for 10.1

My old Verizon HTC Touch played Hulu videos on Skyfire perfectly before Hulu blocked us from using it. Also, for some reason, it handled other flash sites better than my wife's Droid with 2.2 and 10.1.

HTC Flash is "Flash Lite" it's hardly full 10.1 flash.
video doesnt seem real, theres cuts in the video before and after he touches the screen
Im pretty sure it's real.. I think those "cuts" are just flash being somewhat laggy on his phone...
There is already a flash 10.1 for the eris flying around I have a copy on my computer i believe I'll post it when i get home.
EDIT:Here it is guys, but it only works on the stock browser, im guessing thats why it didn't catch much attention.

I think its full flash, I can play flash games on site and stuff without problems, only thing is that its a little slow and can only be used on stock browser on htc roms because it uses something that flash lite uses on the htc browser.

I agree. It's exactly the same as my wife has on her Droid with Froyo and it says "Adobe Flash 10.1" when installing it with the Adobe logo.

I have 3.0.1 and the videos are still choppy. I hope the version being released next week fixes this. I even got a message that said "this video is not optimized for mobile". It seems like this version doesn't have hardware acceleration, we'll see next week.
