Is there any way to make this app also for Android?

Thank you in advance
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] F27:
For the last two versions MVU hasn't been working for me :( I'm running PPC 2003SE and it worked fine before.

When I do a YouTube search in the app it comes up with a list of videos, I click play, then I get the loading 'pie' thing and the application hangs eventually coming up with the error 'cannot read from site'. If you select OK or cancel is hangs again in a loop until you force end task the program.

I have tried reinstalling, resetting the PDA and nothing works. Its a real shame as it worked flawlessly before.

Can someone help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fazanatas:
hey, great app. i installed the latest version of it and coreplayer, but i cant stream or download youtube videos. it alway says; keynotfoundexception, and then i get the message that the format is not available. whats the problem with that? youjizz also doesnt play. it sayscompression on2vp6 is not supported.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DJ_Luki:
I have this problem too. Three or four days ago everything works fine but today i can`t watch and download videos from YouTube. Could anyone help us?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] EdrickV:
Youtube, as mentioned, is definitely broken. Dailymotion is even worse.(The only thing that shows up in search box are the movie length times, no pictures, no name. CollegeHumor doesn't appear to work either. (Not as much of an issue for me, only checked it for the purposes of this post.)

And FYI, Youtube did work a while ago with TCPMP. IIRC, the best formats to use were 360p or standard (old) though medium might have worked with a faster CPU.

Hope this gets updated, because this is the only method for watching Youtube videos online that I've found that worked on my new refurbished Kaiser. :)

New Version - mVu - 1.0.11.26

I've just uploaded a new version (1.0.11.26). This version includes the following:

Fix YouTube KeyNotFound Exception

Remove CollegeHumor

Remove Dailymotion

I've removed CollegeHumor and Dailymotion for now as it was not a trivial fix to get them working again.

You can get the latest version at http://bik2000.appspot.com.

Anyone want to try out a preliminary version of mVu Mobile Viewer that works on newer smartphones (such as iPhone and android)?

Check out http://mvu-mobile-viewer.appspot.com from your smartphone. (It will also work from IE or Chrome, but that's not the point of this).

Remember this is a very early version that is not fully functional and does not have all of the same abilities as mVu Mobile Viewer Windows Mobile App. There is no playlist functionality, and only a few sites are implemented. If you want to download videos (at least on iPhone) you'll have to use a Download Manager app. Not sure about android.

I have used this successfully on an iPod Touch. It should work on iPhones. I expect it will work on android, but I have not tested that as I do not have an android device. It should also work on Windows Phone 7, but I haven't tested that either. It does not work properly on older Windows Mobile devices.

Note, not all video formats are supported on iPhone/iPod Touch. Not sure what formats work on android.

You can use the Add to Home Page feature on iPhone/iPod Touch to add an mVu icon to this as a fullscreen web app.

Let me know what you think.

Select 3GP instead of FLV in the dropdown and YouTube should work. It's not really 3GP, just a bug in the way I coded it. But that should at least get it working until I update the app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dtrieb:
Hi it doesn't work for me to watch 3GP or FLV Videos. (I use the TCPMP, with Videos i have on my device it work.)

So can you make a build-in play?

Anyway great program.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] damianpadden:
top notch...this is almost a new WVD.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
bik2000 thanks for the tip to get Youtube running... But now I have a different problem. TCPMP will say "YOUTUBE protocol not supported" (may have to do with the way the link is being passed... maybe mVu removed the http or www part of the address and TCPMP doesn't know how to handle it).

@anyone with TCPMP issues

TCPMP works with flv (unless it has h264 video) and 3gp. The problem is the version your using or some registry junk. Uninstall the old version, install a new one (either go to bimbam69 thread or install this cab) and run this fix.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GermanGuy:
After clicking "search" and thumbnails appear, I don't see a "next" button to load another set of thumbnails.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Yes, I have not implemented paging yet. It will only return the first page of results. You'll have to do a different keyword search for now to get other results.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Samip430:
Are you going to implement a "Top Rated" and similar categories like WVD had?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chelsea_fc:
also add video duration :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zinconnu:
I can't watch 3gp videos because it opens windows media player and give me an error. When i select flv it opens coreplayer and it works.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
What is the player you have associated with 3gp? Go to CorePlayer options/settings menu check if it's associated with 3gp files.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zinconnu:
You're right, it's fixed. I have updated my old coreplayer and it has been unchecked. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
I should have another update out this weekend sometime.

It will fix the issue with YouTube when FLV is selected. It will also add the ability to change pages to see more results. Maybe a few other things.

I'd like to add some more sites but the few I've tried (RedTube, YouPorn) both use On2 VP6 videos which Coreplayer doesn't play. Any suggestions for other sites (that don't use On2 VP6)?

-- bik2000
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
Good news. If you're looking for sites why not expand a bit more into non-porn websites ;)

Implement all the sites supported by WVD... Then maybe the ones from GoTube (the PSP app). Also don't forget some websites have mp4 streams.

PS: Don't completely avoid websites just because of onvp6 (just jot them down in the priority list). TCPMP plays it even if it's slow because it's based on ffmpeg and not very optimal (don't know how well it performs on the HD2 though). It would require a hell of a developer to get it right but who knows...

Coreplayer supports passing links using a YouTube protocol. For example, you can pass Coreplayer a link of the format youtube://<video_id>. This makes it easy to support YouTube streaming in Coreplayer.

I have not been able to figure out what link I need to pass to TCPMP to stream from YouTube. The rtsp:// link does not work and neither does the YouTube download link. Can anyone help me out with that?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] carbtvserv:
I get en error on the player sayin "Video codec (on 2vp6) not supported by the player!(1009)".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
I believe WVD passed Youtube links using the http protocol... But I'm afraid I can't be of any more help. Maybe you can take a peek at how WVD did it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
The YouTube API seems to provide two types of links.

RTSP:

e.g. rtsp://v1.cache4.c.youtube.com/CiILENy73wIaGQn3FjTwYo_m-xMYDSANFEgGUgZ2aWRlb3MM/0/0/0/video.3gp

HTTP:

e.g. http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id={0}&t={1}&fmt={2}

where {0} is the video_id, {1} is a token you get from the api, {2} is the desired format

I can download from the second one, but passing either to TCPMP doesn't seem to work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
Which version of TCPMP? Please try the one from my signature (and make sure you delete the old TCPMP key from the registry). The last official version of TCPMP had a max limit of the number of chars of the http addresses smaller than the size of any current Youtube video url.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
New Version - mVu - 0.4.0.0

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
I was under the belief that the get_video way didn't work anymore? Care to share a link (I don't know hot to get tokens)?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
The tokens are embedded in the flashvars parameter if you view the source on a YouTube video page. Look for &t=. Apparently the token is only valid for the the IP it was taken from...so the same token doesn't work for everyone.

I think you may also be get the download links through this: http://youtube.com/get_video_info?video_id=<video_id>

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chmun77:
I have tried v4. But I think the quality of the videos are really lousy as compared to GetYTV. The MP4 quality videos are so bad. Is it really MP4 quality??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bboyalan:
You are correct, and I did a little "test" to compare the two. I downloaded one of my videos on YT with both v4 and GetYTV. The video qualities are worlds apart which reflects in their file sizes too. Check out my file attachment below.

Video playback [streaming] through the program still does not work for me. It will either try to load the phone's album viewer or go ape**** with "bimbam" TCPMP. The only method that works so far is downloading first and viewing after... in my case anyway.

PS: The Vocab document is for my student lol :p

Is there any chance you can add Crunchyroll into the app? I would pay for such an app. Thanks for your hard work.

Oh, by the way, teased my iphone fanatics with this one and asked them where was their pron? They remained shut!:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
No, it probably isn't. I have to make some changes to support the different formats that YouTube provides. I think I am defaulting to a lower quality format. I don't think all formats are available for all videos, so I need to add some support to account for that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bboyalan:
So far so good sir! mVu's "Medium" = GetYTV's "MP4"

Out of curiosity, is it not possible to download "MP4" for the other sites as well? I only ask because that format is supported by the TP2's album viewer+WMP which would eliminate the need for any other player.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Grooge:
Love it.

Great app love it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chmun77:
Cool! There is a great improvement of the video quality. However, some comments from me which I hope you don't mind.

1. The FPS of the mp4 quality seems kinda low. Only 15fps as seen from my attachment. Not sure if it is due to youtube MP4 limitation or the codec of the program? 15fps is kinda cranky to the eyes. I see GetvTY videos are having ~25fps.

2. I suggest perhaps setting Youtube as the default site on the main page since youtube is a more popular video site?

3. Perhaps you can use labeling like MP4 or FLV instead of normal, medium, etc of the video quality options? 720, 1080 are fine, but just that end users may not know what is the difference of formats, especially between medium and high and 720p?

Nevertheless, it is a very very nice piece of program and work there. You are da man!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
It depends on the site. For example, Tube8 provides FLV and 3GP, YouTube provides FLV, 3GP and MP4. There may be other sites that have MP4 videos as well, I just don't know them all.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
I'm not sure why the file from GetYTV would be any different, unless he is downloading a different quality file from YouTube. There are some older formats available that I don't grab. Is the file from GetYTV the exact same size as the one from mVu?

You can see the different formats available here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YouTube#Quality_and_codecs

There is more than one FLV and MP4 format, which is why I didn't label them that way. I could label them based on the resolution of the video.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mancukya:
youtube not work whit Tcpmp

Tube8 crach with Tcpmp

Red very slow
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
The "YOUTUBE" protocol is not supported... TCPMP can't handle the video links in that format (I wonder if it's just because the address start with youtube and not http). There should be another way to get the links... youtubeplay is the free alternative available (mix of C and C#).

RedTube videos are in onvp6 format. TCPMP implementation of this is very slow and non optimal (CorePlayer doesn't even play this format). Put the player in "Benchmark" (video will be smoother but it may still lag or audio will be out-of-sync)

Tube8 videos are in h264. TCPMP doesn't support flv files with video in this format. The splitter needs tp be updated maybe...

So far these are not very good news for TCPMP users like myself :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
The youtube:// protocol is specific to Coreplayer. This is what Coreplayer uses internally to stream from YouTube. It will accept links in this format. TCPMP doesn't support that format for links. I assume YouTubePlay does something similar to Coreplayer internally to be able to stream from YouTube. The direct links from YouTube allow me to download the files, but I cannot pass those links to either Coreplayer or TCPMP. I assume both Coreplayer and YouTubePlay create their own requests to YouTube and then stream from the response they get. Short of embedding TCPMP into mVU, I don't know a way around this yet.

Do Tube8 .3gp videos work in TCPMP?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
3gp works fine in Tube8 . It's just flv with h264/aac that is the issue (but it's a general format issue in TCPMP... not related with the website).

Sounds like TCPMP needs an update to support Youtube again.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nerv666999:

Just tested the play during download approach but it doesn't work. I triggers a "Win32Exception" error. What are the old Youtube formats (they also call the YOUTUBE protocol)?

Some suggestions a future build:

1- Pause downloads

2- Create a download list

3- WVD approach to displaying the results page: it writes the text for all videos but doesn't wait for all thumbnails to be converted (you can browse the results while the thumbnails are still being added)

Been getting some "Value does not fall within the expected range" error when downloading from Youtube.

As a website suggestion I'd love MegaVideo for anime episodes but MegaVideo search never gives the results for episodes uploaded by AnimeCrazy... Guess I can forget about it.

Why not add LiveLeak, DailyMotion, GoogleVideo and Metacafe... I guess this covers the rest of WVD supported websites.
