streaming media not working on tilt

I can't seem to get htc streaming media to work on my tilt
I've intalled clean ROMs. then put the streaming media files over. this usually ended up with a sdkcerts type error when running the exe, and the javascript and flash out of date in PIE.
I then flashed shaps full ROM which has streaming media installed already.
this lets me load up the streaming media exe just fine. haven't tried opening anything in that yet. no untrusted error. but PIE still gives me the javascript and flash error and no video. I've grabbed sdkcerts.cab from duttys repository, and still nothing.
has anyone got this runing on a tilt yet?
does anyone have any ideas on how to get it running or what I need to do short of buying a TyTN?

1. I've explained why S.M. doesn't run on some ROM's in my article in the first bullet of the "UPDATE (06/29/2007)" section at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=2045&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
2. you must go to http://m.youtube.com/ , NOT the traditional YouTube page

you gotta get the tcmp install package... i had to install 3 things...
m.youtube.com is for lame-o iphones
youtube.com is working with i.e. and tcpmp
fyi, i have a tilt and i do NOT use the streaming media to view youtube.com. i use tcpmp

Other people with the same ROM have it running fine with no changes. I did a hard reset with this rom and it still gives me the javascript error
just for a test, I followed the links in your article and tried installing the available links and it still doesnt work.
So far, the people that have said that it's running fine for them are TyTNs, not tilts. but with the same ROM as I am running. So something about my phone being a Tilt is making this not run.

I've got tcpmp running great with ytpocket. I consider myself a bit of an expert on it now hahha.
What I dont have running is htc streaming media on my Tilt. and I havent seen anyone post that they do have it running on a tilt, regardless of rom.
The reason that I want this is for non youtube sites.
This (not work safe, but fully clothed) video, for example, plays just fine on my friends TyTN, but wont play on my Tilt
http://www.livevideo.com/media/playvideo_fs.aspx?fs=1&cid=80F6C6492B334402A9F98361628D06C5
Will that one play on your phone? in PIE?

you could also use www.veohgopckt.com and www.ytpocket.com to stream them to tcpmp.all you need to do is install the FlashVideo plugin.

try these cabs... this is all you should need to install to get the "real" youtube to work

i'm wondering what's different in the TyTN II that HTC streaming media works and it wont on a tilt. both with the same ROM. I've yet to find a tilt that it works with like it does on a TyTN II

TCPMP & flash bundle error

I've installed tcpmp & flAsh bundle to watch youtube video but I get this error when I try to play or save any video...
"Videoloader"
youtube swf args not found
Please Help

same error here.

I'm getting youtube vids fine, and i use TCPMP with the FLV 0.4.2 plugin (not sure if that's the same thing, but if it is, you can shoot me for my lack of knowledge)

I Use the one from Dutty, and it works good.

I uninstall and reinstall also the dutty but it gave me same error.
Is the program should be installed on the pda memory or on the sd card?

Are you viewing them on the website or YouTubePocket?

No, i use normal www.youtube.com

Uninstall any versions of tcpmp & flash bundle, then Install the versions below - tcpmp first, then flash bundle, then soft rest. That's it - full youtube vids will work now.

is it working now for you? I mean, at this time. Isn't possible a problem on youtube? Isn't it?
I've got always same error as above... It seems it cannot handle video with the core player

Wow, I thought this was impossible. I've had Flash installed once and it froze the hell out of PIE and Opera. Maybe I'll try these and see what happens.

I should probably also ask what browser you are using? Opera Mini isn't cable of Java and flash right?
**UPDATE** Gave it a shot in Pocket IE ad it says Media file type not supported. I got Tcpmp installed as well, leats I think its a current version.

I'm using IE on wm6.

Hi,
I experienced the same problem with the same configuration.
I think youtube's currently modifiying its way to display the video through
the desktop version of the website.
Unfortunately, the Htc device's owners (maybe the others mobile WM6 owners)
would not be able to display the youtube's video in the future.
I hope it will not the case !

I'm using WM6 with explorer on my xv6800. I removed all other TCPMP and Flash bundle versions and installed the ones that agrif78 provided earlier. Still sadly no dice. I still get the same errors whether I choose "play file" or "save file".

please bookmark this page
it updates whenever youtube changes its files

then just possibly, we may have fewer posts about youtube and tcpmp

Ok I installed the newest version of vTap This little app will allow you to search specific videos and play them, so if you happen to know the title of a video clip you want to watch, this works great. It also displays the web address of where the video is located and I have successfully played some from the youtube. However it will not allow you to play videos directly from the website.(or at least if it does I have not figured it out, maybe someone could shed some light on that tidbit of info?) In short, you can seek out specific videos by title and watch them, but you still can not watch them directly from your web browser on the youtube site. But at least maybe I can still watch some of my favorite funnies until someone smarter than me comes up with a better solution. I'm pretty new with the whole smartphone and pda scene so if I have left out anything then please feel free to correct me. I hope maybe this has helped out some folks.

sorry about that ekw. I just noticed the post. Thanks for the info!

flash bundle
i got it to work. the main thing is to remember to do a soft reset after installing player and bundle

Help Plz!
plz, i'm installing the flash video bundle on my WM6.1 and i have this error:
Failed to install. Could not install the program or the configuration because it does not have the necessary permissions system.

You Tube Viewing

I have searched the site and found a bunch of threads on viewing you tube vids, however there are so many post edits etc. that I can't follow which .cab etc we are supposed to be using.
I have downloaded that TCMP and the new version of flashget but still no luck.
Can someone that has a tilt please post what they are using and if it works on this thread - many thanks!!!!

I simply go the mobile version of you tube (m.ca.youtube.com). When I click on a video link the HTC Streaming application (which came with my Kaiser) starts up and plays the video. That simple.
Two notes, however;
1) Over my WiFi connection I need to configure my wifi router to put my Kaiser in the "DMZ - Demilitarized Zone" so as to allow full access to the internet. Otherwise the RTSP streaming fails and the HTC Streaming application complains about an inability to access the connection.
2) Streaming doesn't work over GPRS for me. This is most likely due to my cell phone carrier not allowing full internet access (much like when I don't have my WiFi router configured to put my Kaiser in the DMZ).

To use the "proper" YouTube, as opposed to the mobile version, you need these two .cabs:

I have both of these intstalled with duttys rom ver 4 and I still get the "failed to find network" error in streaming media when using 3g att or wifi. I used to have no problem streaming vids (besides it being really slow and chopy) over att when I was using an older duttys touchflo 6 for att.
I searched too but all I found was some blurbs about youtube changing addressed and wifi in DMZ mode (which neither seemed to apply)
but I am a tard so who knows...

Is anyone really watching you tube vids or is this whole thing some sort of practical joke that I haven't been let in on - LOL
I'm not a noob by any means, I just can't seem to get this to work.
Figures too - because AT&T just "turned on" the 3G network today in my area - I now have very fast internet speeds, but no you tube (

Nothing happens when I click on a vid on the mobile site - it just sits there (Opera mini) doesn't show loading - nothing.
On the desktop one it says I either don't have flash enabled, or I need the newest version - which I have
I appreciate you helping me with this - I'm sure I am not alone on this issue 0 judging by what I'm reading here

ah, try using internet explorer

Follow these steps & pay attention...
Dude, Seriously...You may have read the thread, but you really need to pay attention to what you read. FLASHGET??? FLASH LITE??? Both of these have NO IMPACT on playing flash video.
What you need is:
(A) TCPMP either .72 or .81 (You said you have)
(B) FlasVideoBundle
Instal This:
http://rapidshare.com/files/87945596/FlashVideoBundle.CAB
After installing, make sure that the following files were all copied to the TCPMP root directory (i.e. For .72 \Programs\TCPMP or \Storage Card\Programs\TCPMP or for .81 \Programs\TCPMP\Player):
DiagVL.exe
DisableVL.exe
flvffmpeg.plg
flvsplitter.plg
MenuToggle.exe
VideoLoader.dll
These files must be in the TCPMP directory! It should do it automatically if you use .72. However, for .81 you must copy the files by hand.
After insuring the files have been coppied to the right directory, then launch TCPMP & go to preferences & set the file associations for the flash video, i.e. flv)
Note: without the current version of FlashBundle Youtube will no longer work. I have attached the most current version to the link above.
AND YES, you must use either PIE or (OPERA Mobile 8.65 (NOT MINI) with the macromedia flash player 7).

Dude, excuse the hell out of me...when neither the TCPMP and flashvideo bundle worked - someone suggested flash lite so I installed that as well...I don't think I EVER read where you couldn't use opera mini - thank you to you guys for pointing that out. I will try what you just posted, thanks for taking the time to help someone who obviously "didn't pay attention to what I read"

I can provide some insight, although I really new at this. I installed both cabs and can view all youtube videos through a portal site called ytpocket.com, using the search field at the top. This does not address the larger issue of how to play streaming flash videos from other websites. Specifically, on real youtube, I get the error message "youtube swf args not found" and the title bar of the error message is "VideoLoader." I have no idea what this means.
I also can't get the m.youtube.com site to play videos becuase the Real Player doesn't recognize 3gp files, and my attempts to associate these files with TCMP have apparently failed.
Hope this helps and hope someone smarter than me can solve these two problems! Thanks all.

dt, for the mobile youtube, install htc streaming media

Playing iplayer content on Diamond

I recently came back to the HTC fold after a year of uing Nokias by being given a Diamond for my Christmas and I've given my wife my N95. I have spent the last week searching various forums to try and solve the following problem.
I used to use my old phone to watch programmes I had downloaded from the BBC Iplayer site. I presumed it would be as easy as using Windows media player on my PC to sync the content to the Diamond as I could do with my old XDA Mini S. Unfortunately it's not !! I keep being hit with error messages saying that it requires a licence. I have tried downloading it with iplayer downloader and renaming the .mov file to mp4 which at least gives me picture but no sound on the Diamond. It is all the more galling when I see my daughter just dragging and dropping content onto her Creative Zen mp4 player and it plays without any hassle.
If someone could suggest a simple and hopefully guaranteed method I would appreciate it. I ahve searched the forum for this but all the threads relate to streaming content to the phone. This isn't really an option because I am on Orange with a pretty meagre data package.

Second that...
Yeah, I'd like to know the answer to that one too. I can play iPlayer programmes on the device via the video streamer thanks to the information in this forum, but I get the same lisence error if I try and play a programme I've downloaded on my PC... even though the download actually says it's for mobile devices?
Can anyone shed any light on this?

I'm glad to see I'm not alone. Anyone out there got a solution ?

You'll have to search the forum for that one my friend... I can't remember where I saw the information. You have to update one of the settings in Opera to fool iPlayer into thinking your device is a Samsung Omnia, then visit the mobile iPlayer site and click away. The videos stream throught the pre-installed video streaming app on the device. (At least pre-installed in stock ROM's, if you're using a custom ROM then the cooker may have removed it!)
Happy searching!

The device needs to support playback of DRM protected content, to be able to playback the stuff downloaded from Iplayer. (something like that)

Thanks for that
It's not the streaming of programmes I'm trying to do it's playing files I have already downloaded and want to transfer to my Diamond

Have you tried coreplayer ?

Not the answer to the original question I know but a bit of info for streaming iplayer direct from the BBC website. I use Skyfire browser which is fine, and pretty quick.

Problem resolved
I did as suggested and installed coreplayer and I can play the content. I'll go through what i did because I'm not entirely sure that Coreplayer resolved the problem or no.
I downloaded Coreplayer and installed it on the phone. Because I had deleted the previous downloads I used my daughters laptop to transfer a programme she had downloaded to her Creative Zen. After I transferred it to my phone I went into File Explorer and clicked on the programme rather than opening in Coreplayer it opened in Windows media player. A warning popped up as usual "A licence is required to play this file" and it offered to download it as before. I thought "here we go again it'll fail to get the licence and won't play" but surprise surprise it played fine. Now I'm not sure if Coreplayer installs a codec that allows these files to play or whether the phone got a licence off my daughters laptop that was designed for the Creative Zen but bottom line is that it works. So I'm happy

You Tube

Has anyone got you tube to work on the M2D ? I launch the app. The menu screen comes up showing video selections, but when you click on a video to play it, the player comes up and says connecting, then says " error can not play this video "

If you installed it by cab, then good luck. The HTC YouTube application has never worked for me if installed by cab file. I've only gotten it to work when it was cooked into the ROM. Though you might try the official youtube app from m.youtube.com.
Dave

yea it was installed as a cab file when I installed M2D

you may want to try "skyfire" it's a browser that enables you to see videos from www.youtube.com...if you try opening m.youtube.com it doesn't work...i'm using it almost 2 months and no problem so far...i can see anything with no problem..it's also freeware...i'm not sure if i can post a link or attach the file so if you can't find it on google which is very easy btw ask me to send you a pm cheers!
