Still can't get your wonderful app working on 3g mate. I have noticed it's only the adult sites that don't work. Still find it strange that the the old version works fine but none of the new ones do. All I can think is O2 R blocking it cos the the new versions work fine on WiFi. It's just 3G.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Can you browse to those sites using a web browser over 3g? If so, there is one thing I could try related to the proxy server that I changed in the newer versions. I could make a specific version that undoes that change for you to test out.

Anyone else having problems with 3g?

-- bik2000
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dddunga:
Thank you, I was now able to install with the uncompressed CAB file. :)

However, when I attempt to run the app I get this message:

NotSupportedException

And clicking OK doesn't clear it, so I have to do a soft reset. :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Is it a Windows Mobile 2003 device? I don't have one to test on, but I'll try running it through the 2003 emulator and see if I can figure out what it doesn't like.

-- bik2000
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Pocket PC 2003

Try this version. There were some Webbrowser control functions that were not supported in 2003. I fixed it up and tried it in the emulator and it seems okay.

Future versions should continue to work with 2003. I'll just need to remember to post an uncompressed version each time.

Have just checked on opera and IE and adult sites R working fine with 3G. If you think it may work I'm up for trying out the cab.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dddunga:
Yes, it works perfectly now!

Thanks a lot. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gapcio78:
Unfortunately there is still message error : "There was no XML start tag" :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
I never really mentioned it with the last few versions, but if you are wondering where the adult sites went, make sure you take a look at the Options window (Menu -> Options). Those sites are hidden by default now.

I assume most people figured that out since I haven't heard many complaints, but I figured I'd post it here just in case.

Hello Bik

Nice new version, thank you.

I found one problem.

Sometimes, a download just crash if i keep the pda busy with other software while downloading. OK, i would say it's my own fault then...

The problem is, that the crashed download is still an active process even after closing mVu. I can't delete the corrupted file and my memory is going down with each process staying in memory.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Can you kill the process using task manager?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Doo Doo:
how do you get Video Codec On2 VP6 to play ?

because i can't get it to play for nothin'
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Thorsten74:
With my WM6.1 taskmanager, i can only kill applications, but no processes.

Do you have one for killing processes also? Then i will try it out.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tarroyo:
Minor request: When a update is available, A message pops up telling you so. My request is that when that message pops up all you can do is click "hide"

Can that be changed to dismiss? Hide keeps the update message running in the background, I tried dismissing it in the notifications tab and had no luck. Your only given the option to hide it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
it doesnt Workstation with my coreplayer.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Hmmm, I thought I had it being dismissed before. I'll have to look into that.

If you are seeing a NullReferenceException in version 1.0.4.44 when going to the Options dialog, download the latest version again from http://bik2000.appspot.com.

I have put a fixed version up there, but I didn't bump up the version number so there will be no new version notification for this fix.

I use dotfred's task manager: http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm

Btw, I prefer version 3.1 to version 3.3 on my Windows Mobile 6.1 device. Version 3.3 is "thumb-friendly" and I personally find it harder to navigate.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kevlah:
I've just downloaded and installed 1.0.4,44 and I only get 2 sites to search (YouTube and DailyMotion). (sorry just found your post about the others being hidden)

I also got a problem where I lost connection while downloading 2 videos and when I reconnected and tried to resume it said that it couldn't access the file as another process was using it. I have no other apps open so I'm not sure what that would be. When I went back into the download manager the file now shows the wrong file size. I removed both downloads and restarted the phone. Deleted the failed download and downloaded again OK. Great app though, thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m0nkeyman:
bike2000 just asking to see if you still think that cab you was gonna do for me will work. There is no rush for it as I know your very busy.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
I'll try to put something together this weekend.

I'm still curious about others with 3g. Is it working for anyone else with 3g? If it was not working for everyone who was using 3g, I'd think there'd be a lot more people here asking about it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Doo Doo:
can somebody answer this for me please :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
TCPMP is the only player that can play the On2 VP6 codec. It will likely be slow unless it is a low res video. You can search on this forum for a few different versions of TCPMP.

Greetings.

Nice app, but on my HD2 it's not working properly.

The problem is with YouTube. When i want to download (save) movie download don't want to start and i get error (it's something about it can't show error because i don't have full netCF3.5 on my device). I can play the movie (via CorePlayer), but i can't download it. With DailyMotion i can play and download movies. Also, after exiting app process stays in process list. It can be killed thou (using ArcSwitch). I'm using last version of mVu Mobile Viewer.

My setup is HD2, Duttys V14 COM3 ROM.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Thorsten74:
Hello bik

Sorry for my late reply.

I can not close it, but i can kill it with dotfred's task manager.

If i loose WLAN connection, an error message "An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket" appear.

After reconnecting, i can not resume the download because it is still blocked by the old process.

And i can not close mVu because "There is a download in progress."

After stopping the crashed download, i can close mVu, but the process is still active. I have to kill it in the task manager.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] yawanag:
mVu

How did you get this to work? I also have an HD2 and I could view nothing. It is loaded with ads and when I deleted it. It left an icon on my home screen. I couldn't delete it so I did a soft reset. I got the message that my device could not reboot because of a third party app. I had the option of pushling the volume up button and it would restore my device to its factory setttilngs or to tap any other button to cancel. I chose the any other button. I have it restored and the icon is gone. I have tried too many thilngs to try and get Youtube back. I am now going to be satisfied without it.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
thanks working great on my diamond running 6.1 look forward to your updates :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
If you are talking about the notification icon, there is an issue with it not clearing that will be fixed in the next update.

Seriously? One banner ad at the top of the screen is considered loaded with ads? On an HD2 it's 50 pixels out of 800. And the new design shows several more results per page even with the banner.

Hey, if this was the app store and everyone who downloads it paid me 99 cents, I'd be glad to get rid of the ad banner. I'm just trying to make a few bucks for my effort. Feel free to not use the software if the ads bother you that much.

New Version - mVu - 1.0.5.58

I've just posted a new version (1.0.5.58). This version contains the following:

Added CollegeHumor

Fixed issue with notifications not being dismissed properly

Fixed NullReferenceException in Options dialog

Fixed issue with file being locked if error occurred during download

Fixed issue that could occur with YouTube videos related to goo.gl URL shortener

You can download the latest version from http://bik2000.appspot.com.

See http://bik2000.appspot.com/history.html for full list of changes.

-- bik2000
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Try this. I made a slight change in setting the proxy when making connections. It's the only thing that's really changed related to connections from the old versions, so this is a version that goes back to the old way. Let me know if this works for you, and I'll try to incorporate it into the regular version.

NOTE: This version should only be used by those who are having connection issues. It may cause connection issues for others. :)

-- bik2000
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Honestly, I use Coreplayer, not TCPMP (and I do without On2 VP6 videos), so I can't really give you a recommendation. There are a few active threads floating around here with versions of TCPMP:

Hi,

in any case of searching (other than YouTube) I have message: "The XmlReader state should be EndOfFile after this operation." What can I do? Please help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stab244:
Maybe you can put in an option to let us choose what video player is used to play videos? There are some VP6 videos that I watch but would prefer to use Coreplayer for everything else.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m0nkeyman:
Sorry mate but this one not working too :'(. Can't think what the hell the problem could be. I'm gonna hard reset my phone at the weekend and make your program the first one I put back on it. Just to see if another program is stopping yours working. Thank you for trying.

Hi bik, I have an Omnia II and your app doesn't work :(

I installed version 1.0.4.44 then 1.0.3.8 but still the same message :

"Out of memory exception"

And the Error Report in the attached picture
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kjhadfield:
bout time i popped in and said thanks for the app been using since day 1.

ads not big deal here, do what you do and thanks for it being free :D

3g works here, slow and lots of buffering but prolly my service. i use my home wifi and works great and plays all the way through no buffering

1 big thing i have noticed since you implemented the new ui design is there is no scrolling. to scroll down i have to tap or drag the scroll bar but cant 'finger flick' the screen like before :eek:

thanks agian keep it up
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] royboy64:
i recently purchased the htc touch pro thodium does anuone know or have a link to make it a weighing device
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mimicicu:
The 1.0.5.58 version works on my Omnia II

Takes a little time on launch, but it works

I'm really happy being able to download youtube videos directly on my phone ! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Hmmm, I never realized the old version allowed finger scrolling. That must be device specific. Do you have an HD2?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Not sure what you mean by a "weighing device".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mimicicu:
Rectification : The app can't download videos

Does it work on other phones ?

The streaming is quite slow and it's impossible to download the videos on the Omnia II
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Try downloading to main memory if you have enough space. My device is much faster downloading to main memory instead of the SD card.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kjhadfield:
im almost 100% That the older ui design, i was able to finger scroll down the page where as now i can only scroll down via scroll bar. no hd2 i have tp2 aka touch pro 2/rhodium. which will help answer a few posts up it works for me on the same device.

and for the other poster, streaming is flawless with wifi but buffers every x secs on 3g so are you on 3g or wifi? wifi is better. cant confirm/deny downloading as i havent tried
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kjhadfield:
oh thats what he asked. but why in this thread? you should ask in general questions or similar not a specific thread for specific app.

i never have heard of such app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stab244:
I can also confirm that there was finger scrolling, aka kinetic scrolling, in the old versions. I have a tp2 as well. Just disregard my "sig".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mimicicu:
Program reinstalled in main memory, everything is all right now !

You can extract the sound from youtube videos, that's very great ! ;)

The downloads now are quick, and it's possible to download to my storage card

The process is light and seems to be able to run a long time (wvd couldn't do, it crashed after half a hour, even if it didn't do anything...)

Program works on Samsung Omnia II

Can I ask a few things to be integrated ? :o

- See the size and date of the videos in the Search results

- A progress bar during the downloads

- A shortcut to play the file directly from mVu when the download is over

But the program is already great, thank you ! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stab244:
Not sure if this is in the program, but I think it would be nice for there to be a context menu that pops up web you long click a video that you want to watch or save.

You do not tell me what's the problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gapcio78:
Please, any solutions of this problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
I've never been able to reproduce this one. It only seems to affect a small number of people.

A few questions:

Does it happen on every search (other than YouTube) or only with some specific keywords?

What language is your device running in?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
I'll take a look and see if anything has changed with xHamster.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
It's likely that the download speed isn't fast enough to support streaming 720p. If you have available memory, try installing mVu to main memory rather than on an SD Card. On my device it's much faster downloading to main memory instead of the SD Card.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:

Download of youtube movies don't work resulting in error message. I can watch them, but can't download them. On all other sites i can download and watch movies while on wifi (on 3G/HSDPA i can download movies from youtube also).

One more thing, when exiting app while on wifi it stucks as background process and i have to kill it via task manager.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stonyhawk:
great app !!! but,

I use coreplayer and still i cant stream about half of the videos.

In coreplayer i have selected all file associations in the preferences but some formats just dont work. Sometimes its stuck at loading in coreplayer, sometimes i get error: player: video codec (on2 vp6) not supported by the player!

Is this because i may have older version of coreplayer or is it known that it isnt supported?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Coreplayer does not support On2 VP6 video. You may find a version of TCPMP that does support On2 VP6, but will likely find that it plays too slow to be watchable. This is just a limitation of trying to do this on Windows Mobile.

Don't laugh too much! This is actually one app that gives u a benefit to having PIE as your default browser. If u install ADISASTA DOWNLOAD ACCELERATOR then anytime u download a file it will intercept it and speed up the download about 4 times the normal speed. I actually have skyfire as my default but for some reason it always chooses PIE when I choose to download with this program.

Progress Update

Just to give you guys an update on the progress of this app, I should be getting a new version out this week that will have the following new features:

New tabbed interface UI

Separates Search, Results and Downloads

First step in adding more sites to search

Ability to browse by Category

Ability to search by Keyword within a Category

Built-in download capability - preliminary functionality
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bboyalan:
Nice. Will this allow for paging? Also, any updates or ideas on playback? or are we limited to downloading first and viewing later?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zinconnu:
Good to read, thanks for your work! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
I have not added paging yet. That's still on the to-do list. With keyword and category searching you will be able to at least get different sets of 36 videos.

The app does stream videos through a player like Coreplayer so you don't have to download first. On my device connected to WiFi, Coreplayer plays streamed flv videos perfectly smoothly, and allows for jumping around to different parts of the video.
