ICS bug? Can Anyone Play Kanye West - Power video on Youtube - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

when I try to play the video it kicks me back to the video search results.
I was able to play his video fine prior to upgrading from Honeycomb. could someone with ics on prime test and see if they get the same results.

taylor swift has gotten her revenge????? lol

yep ravizzle that's the same error I get when I try to playback his video from the Youtube app.
I can't explain it, it worked fine a couple of days ago.

try doing any search and playing a video. you will get same error. it is happened since ics update that's why on hc u could play it.

VEVO videos all crashed on my phone and tablet... can anyone confirm?

I think you guys are right, it does affect some other HD videos. I tried to playback a Kanye West Power Parody and that video crashed the Youtube app as well.
I don't know it affects all HD videos because yesterday I had no problems playing back Reckless Tortuga's videos which I thought were in HD, at least that's how they are offered through the browser. (they might not be HD on the app as there's no way of telling, other than a setting that suppose to enable HQ playback).
Good news is that this is only limited to the Youtube app, I can playback the Power video fine from the Browser.
I hope somebody fines out about this and fix this issue because the Youtube app is main apps showcased on the Prime, and it really makes things look bad if you try to play an HD youtube vid that will just crash the app.

I can't view the Kanye West Power music video either, but that said, the issue is not "all HD movies" since I can view and play the HD movies I've personally uploaded.
For example, you should be able to watch this just fine -- I can:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoK_OmSE8wg

the Kanye West vid crashes my Youtube app too. If you go to it in a browser like Dolphin you get a message "not available on mobile" even though I'm using desktop as user agent. Didn't know they could do that.

No Kanye West? Is this a bug, or a new feature?

My youtube is completely broken

Video Player App

I currently have both vplayer alpha and moboplayer installed, moboplyer seem more stable never forceclosed but everytime i exit vplayer it FCs. Only problem I have with Moboplayer is that it does not save current play time on exit so you have to start agaon from the start.... otherwise its excellent.
I never installed vPlayer, as it was always crashy on my Evo. I have been pleasantly surprised by MoboPlayer on my Flyer though. Works very well, and the UI is actually pretty nice. It has saved my point in time on close though, So I haven't seen that problem.

Ummm. The gallery plays standard avi for me. As long as it doesn't use AC3 audio...
Rock player supports most of the files, so its quite reliable no crashes yet
Finally i'm using successfully vPlayer.
try to set it in high quality video mode and set the maximum buffer size.
It works perfect for me.
I don't know if the Flyer has an hardware to decode, so I choose software decoding mode, but it has no lags.
I hope to get in a future a way to set it directly to a specific folder and to get the view of the film's covers.
Did anyone find a way to put an Mkv full hd inside ?
I use QQPlayer for mkv never had a problem never FC (fingers crossed touch wood and all that).
I just wish their connectedMedia app would stream mkv files from my ReadyNAS, avi and the others are no problem.
Has anybody tried Act 1 Player with the Flyer yet? I bought it to use on my Evo last year and I liked it.
i use vital player,plays avi very well
Please someone recommend me a video player which has d function to lock d screen while playing a video; just like

Dice player has HARDWARE based playback and supports FLV and MKV formats among others.
It's $5, but plays back some downloaded 1.5GB 720p MKV files I tried out flawlessly. Even subtitles. So now I have all of season one of a show I like ready for my next flight, without the bother of re-encoding it to suit the View's native player.

How do you get to your movies using the stock application? I've got my movies installed on the SD Card in a folder called movies. To watch them now I navigate to them with Astro and open them from there.
I think I should mention Vital Player if you want to play any kind of video format and take a screenshot from it. FYI, you cannot use magic pen to take screenshot from any kind of video player other than Vital Player.

[Q] Video problem affecting everyones droid X2

I am posting this to report a problem, not only with my droid x2 but with everyone's droid x2.
problem: The droid x2 is unable to stream or watch downloaded 720p using Jetvd or TubeMate, while the droid 3 can.
Has everyone here used Jetvd or TubeMate. They are great programs, they basically allow you to watch youtube videos and download them if you like them. They both allow you to watch 720p videos/download them so you can watch them on your phone.
Now the problem is, the droid x2 does not allow you to watch hd video using both these programs. The droid x2 has a qhd display so i don't understand why its unable to play these videos.
While i was at the verizon store, i installed jetvd and tubemate on the droid 3. I discovered the droid 3 can play 720p videos using jetvd. I then went to the droid x2 on display and did the same thing. The x2 was unable to play these videos.
So i would like everyone to download jetvd. Do a search "hd" find a video thats 720p and try to play it because you can't.
So my question is this. Why? is this a rom problem? A program problem? Because how can the droid 3 do this while the droid x2 can't?
Open youtube app, settings choose high quality on mobile networks. Just watched starwars trailer in 720p
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
The you tube app does not play the video in hd, it plays the video at sub hd and stretches the image to fit the display. I had asked for you to download jetvd or tubemate and search he and select a video that shows 720p and try to play it. You can play it on the DROID 3 but not the x2
I wonder if this is a problem with the class rating of the microSD card. Anyone with a class 10 or higher want to check this?
Please could someone check. I am annoyed you can't play 720p youtube videos downloaded by jetvd or tubmate on the DROID x2 but you can on the evo and DROID 3
Just watched 300 trailer 720p hd. And 1080p transformers trailer. Streamed both. Class 10 sd. These are what the titles said. Did nit change any default settings in tubemate.
Edit.
I could not download and watch in. 1280- 720 res. Had to do the lower res 640-360 or whatever. Is this still 720p?

no 640x360 is not 720p. This is the issue i am reporting on.
Let me just clarify something. Tubemate can't play 720p or 1080p videos streamed. When you go to watch the video it redirects you to the youtube app in which case you are watching the vids in 640x360 resolution.
However Tubemate does allow you to download the videos in 720p so that you can watch them on your phone. Now you just said that even with your class 10 card you were unable to watch the downloaded 720p vids.
Jetvd can actually stream 720p and download 720p.
I am beggining to think this is a rom issue.
It has to be a rom issue, because I've seen the Thunderbolt handle streamed 720p flawlessly, and the eve 3d, betting any dual core phone can do it, besides ours

What are you smoking man... we all know the fact that Verizon's strong-arm, lock-down, "we own this, you don't" approach is the uber best possible awesomest most bestest romz evar. Verizon can't has no problems with their elite massive roms. If you can't play 720p on one of the fastest phones out there when 1080p runs pretty damn fine on slower, then it's just never not possible because Verizon said so. </sarcasm>
I'm sure it's a rom problem. Even a phone half the speed can do 720p using a class 10 (verified this one myself) with a near vanilla CM7 load (tweaked CPU settings only).
Can you really tell the difference on a 4.3 inch display anyway?

Video issues on Dx2
I have installed CM10a3 rom on my Dx2 and discovered issues playing video. Youtube and other videos would play the audio but no accompanying video.
I found that Chrome Browser does a better job than other browsers, but not prefect. The Youtube app by Google and Chrome by Google play youtube videos that other browsers such as Dolphin would only play the audio (no imaging). This leads me to believe Google has something to here. I have Adoble Flash Player v.11 installed for Dolphin but Chrome does not us Flash. Could Flash and embedded videos for Flash be the video problem rather than the Dx2 rom or the Dx2 hardware? Does anyone have an idea why CNN videos or vids from non Youtube embedded videos not render the audio but not the images?

Its a kernel issue, flash is trying to call a driver or a module that wasn't included until later versions of a kernel and was a required upgraded for later versions of android.

I have found, at least with my media collection, that Diceplayer works better across all types of codec configurations.
I normally use BsPlayer, since it has built in samba client and therefore no need to use ex file explorer to start dice player. If BsPlayer does not cut it, then I switch to Diceplayer.
Mx video player does not currently decode all formats i hardware on the prime, so wait a little while with that.
I am finding the default video player after the ICS update to be quite capable. Haven't had to download any codecs, or anything.

Yes, I also have been impressed by the built in player but it has had problems with playing audio on many of my files.

I don't believe there are any of yet. I currently use Dice Player which has played 99% of my videos on HW. For the other 1%, MX Player seems to have the fastest SW decoder. I know Dice has a Tegra 2 plugin (tried it on my Prime to no avail). I wouldn't be surprised if we see Tegra 3 optimized decoding before long. I can't imagine it would be too difficult to do, but since Tegra 3 is so new, there just haven't been any attempts yet.

I agree. The video playback is much better but do not have sound on many MKV 720p high profile. DICE Player is the best for me so far with BS Player second.

I find that the default ICS player is bugged out. Instead of a menu for play,pause and stuff it just shows colored squares (looks like my screen is melting form the inside out) and is obviously bugged out, it doesn't play half the stuff dice player does.
mx player has been treating me the best since I can select hardware or software for the video and the audio separately, allowing me to play 1080p videos and for those that the audio isn't working I can select software decoding of audio. Also MX player is so far the only player that has been handling multiple audio tracks and multiple subtitle tracks well.
@all
OK, sorry, I stand corrected. Just tried out an .mkv on the built-in player which gave no sound at all! Ugghh...
i no this is a bit random
does any one how i can open the default layer app without going through gallery, because am having problem finding my video files through the numerous files on the gallery, thanks

Youtube playback problem

I got my ATT Note the other day and I've noticed that when playing any youtube video (either HQ or standard def on wifi or network) that the video plays normal then speeds up for a sec then back to normal. It's especially worse at the beginning of the video. The audio stays fine, its like the video lags behind the audio and the video speeds up for a sec to catch up.. The status bar shows the video is loading way faster than the video is playing and even pausing it until its downloaded completely doesnt resolve this.
Anyone else have this issue or?

[Q] What do you use to watch media from your phone?

I like having my movies on my ad card cause when I'm sitting at people's houses and tell them "I've got _______ on bluray on my phone." And play it through the PS3, 360, or whatever. But the stock media player on the phone doesn't play all file formats. Any suggestions on what else I can use? Or and I S.O.L and better just keep being cool with playing it through other media outlets.....

i have tried almost every video player on the market and only one stands out of them.
i have alot of 1080p videos and hardware acceleration is very important to me as software mode is slow and eats up battery life when playback.
i tried mx video player, mobo player, etc... and they fail on some video files i have. they either has no (audio sound, no hw acceleration, etc...)
i have alot of onboard f1 videos directly stream sniped on f1.com and converting it to another format is not an option as they would introduce a/v sync issue
an example file would be this one http://www.mediafire.com/?zkpx798acmcdlb0
the only video player that works for hardware acceleration is Vplayer. though, i also keep a copy of mx video player as Vplayer lacks the seek swipe feature and it is sometimes slow on buffering.
