Just updated the youtube app to 2.2.14:
-uploading over wifi is still broken for a decent length of video, e.g. 1min/88MB. The upload goes for a while, stops, times out, retries, rinse repeat and then fails.
- cannot play videos. A video will play for 3-5 seconds, freeze, act like it's buffering, and then just stop.
Anyone else get this behavior? I'm on 2.3.4 stock, rooted.
Yes same thing has been happening to me. It started yesterday. No videos load at all. I'm on cyanogenmod though. The prebeta

That's the one thing I miss about the iPhone. Yeah, the Youtube app stinks on the iPhone also, but at least you can watch YT videos on the default web browser and *never* have any problems such as buffering.
When I try to watch YT videos on the Android's web browser(s), I get a message that says "Sorry, can't play this video". WTF!
Same here in gobstopper bell...YouTube plays a few seconds then buffers forever

Same here. Plays for 12 sec then just stops.

I have the same problem with the latest version as well. Sometimes hang and sometimes causes the phone to hard reboot. I found an older version of youtube that you can sideload.

You should be able to uninstall the update, that's what I did. I was just wondering if anyone else was experiencing similar problems. Seems like it .

I get blank screen or flickering with only sound when I watch youtube in browser or youtube app. Does youtube work with CM7?
For me it does but I have to turn the pad side ways on its side to see the video

I have no problem viewing YouTube on mine. Sometimes it starts out a bit choppy, but it smooths out quickly
Youtube seems to work pretty well for me. I've set it to HQ right from the start. Try that and see if it increases stability

Youtube works for me, but only in cm7, somehow it killed webos's ability to watch youtube.

Same here. Youtube will load, then soon as I click on ANY video it will crash and just say YouTube stopped working. And since we can't uninstall it, what can we do? I've already cleared cache and all that.
Just noticed this too Asus screw you
What update? I didnt do any firmware update but it still happens, reading around a bit it seems to happen on a lot more devices since today. I doubt it has anything to do with the software but more so the server side of youtube.
I'm getting this as well from clicking on links to youtube vids, but it does the same thing when launching youtube app. Must be serverside issues....
No new firmware update as yet in the UK.
I have not installed the update and Youtube is not working for me.
Yup.
"Unfortunately, YouTube has stopped".
Damn.
I haven't installed an update yet but YouTube is not working for me either. Just says YouTube stopped working and closes. Must be a server issue or something.
Youtube was slow last night. I did update today and now no youtube.

same thing after update. tried clearing cache and data. it works on my phone, but when i go to the market on my phone, or tablet, it doesnt show. it still does on my pc though, whether im signed in or out...
EDIT: to clarify, i just got my 2nd prime yesterday, and had NOT tested youtube before the update today.
Asus doesn't care much about their customers!
How can they release an update before test it!? Youtube totaly dead after today's update for me too I'm using it every single day ! I'll contact their support to share my dissapointment...
Unfortunately Youtube is stopped
I just watched youtube for few mts and try to brown other non-HD Video's and all of a sudden "Unfortunately Youtube is stopped" . I cleared the cahe etc but of no use. Even after the firmware update today the same issue.
ah man, glad i saw this. Been driving me insane the last few hours. Youtube loaded fine but as soon as I click on any video the message "Unfortunately youtube..." appeared and then crashed.
Haven't done the update from today yet.
Previously was working fine.
Cleared cache/dalvik cache.
Still no luck...
edit: glad as in = the likelihood that i am the one who is screwing something up is very low
edit #2: similar problem some people were having about a month ago:

I can confirm that youtube was broken before the firmware update. I updated firmware in hopes YouTube would start working again. Nope, still stops after trying to play video.

You tube works in the browser option if you need to watch a video that bad.
I dont have youtube set as my default player, and I get the option to launch video with the app or browser. I tried the browser, and it played fine.
This would mean that its not a sever issue, correct?
Youtube app works fine on rooted HTC OG Evo....
Before update this evening I was watching batman arkham city videos, worked flawlessly. I updated an hour ago.....goose egg
Weird
Have you guys even bothered to read my thread...the YouTube issue is happening with other devices also...its not just Prime owners. Its being looked into an will be fixed.
Anyone try vlc beta yet?

Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I looked at the website and it says for tegra 2 devices you need to be on ICS. maybe that's why it's crashing for you guys since you are still on cm7
not yet. What does it do?
I'm on CM9 and I've tried it. It's neat, it plays all of the file types I would need it to. It looks nice as well. I'd still prefer to use PowerAMP for music though. I wish it had some kind of streaming/remote functionality so that I didn't have to have 2 or 3 VLC apps on my phone. Other than that, sure, it's great for videos. Don't really need it for music.
On stock Gingerbread and it opens and immediately force closes
on the atrix it opens and does nothing.
I have been watching videos on YouTube and noticed that it would randomly slow down on frames then speed back up. Yes its buffered enough. I was just curious if this is happening to anyone else.

I been having similar speed issues and allot of times the videos will just 'hang' there resulting in the never ending loading animation. In my case Ive found that only the youtube app is affected and I dont have any problems by just simply surfing youtube through the browser instead. I use dolphin hd and everything works fine that way.

I'm running ICS 4.2 on my phone and I can't view flash videos on sites such as NBC.com. What do I need to fix this, I already have the flash player downloaded and installed from the market.
Thanks-Dan
What browser are you using?
Just stock, whatever comes along with CleanRom 4.2.
Check if flash is enabled in your browser settings
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Yup, it sure is.
Try ics browser+ free in the market.
Edit: also cleanrom doesn't have flash installed. Are you sure you installed it.

Still not working. I doublechecked the flash player and it says installed, what else could be causing my issues? Can anyone else play the videos on NBC.com? I'm just using that site as an example to test with.
try uninstalling and then reinstalling flash.

I tried it a couple days ago on NBC.com and the video's displayed a message saying it was not formatted for my device or something like that (was very hard to read as it was black text on a very dark background, but it was near the top of where the video image would be. Flash works fine on other sites.

I know ABC doesn't support videos on mobile devices without downloading there app. Maybe NBC is the same?

No, I was just testing it out on NBC's homepage, they always have that featured video clip. I was just using that for test purposes but it always had that dark message about not being able to view on my device.

I am on 4.2 Pro and I found Nbc's site causes an error message to appear "connection error, network data error". Despite that I can play video there. I don't get this error on other sites, and I can play video on other sites too.
