Default New mobile youtube on blackberry?

Please Login to Remove!

Does anyone know how to get the new mobile youtube (m.youtube.com) to work on the blackberry curve? When I click to play one of the videos I get an error stating it can't render the page.

Would this require an OS update from blackberry to make it work?

from looking the video links -- it seems to require either realplayer or something that could play 3gp videos over rtsp. i don't think either exist for the blackberry.

Thanks for the tinytube.net suggestion!

I just went to the site with my Pearl, did a search for "The Doors", clicked on a video(selected "low"), after it said "the video is ready, play now" I clicked the link and it loaded and played.

I didn't change any settings.... just used the default Pearl settings.

I don't see why it wouldn't work on a Curve as well.

EDIT: I just tried selecting "high" and "stream" and it wouldn't work, so make sure and select 'low'.

Tinytube.net works for me on low!....Ditto on the High and Stream settings--didn't work. It seems the file is too large. Thanks for the tip folks!!!

I am able to view videos from tinytube.net with the high setting but only if I download them.

I can get some of the videos to work on high on my curve but not all of them. Only the short videos work on high. I also load them on then play them.

are you guys using the Blackberry Browser Emulation mode or one of the others?

I am using the BB browser with no emulation. I have not tried to stream anything yet so I can't help you there. However I am able to download and save files of any size.

I tried the new youtube site for mobiles http://m.youtube.com on the html browser and i got in but when trying to watch a video I got an error message saying "A problem occured while trying to render the page". Then I tried the site through the wap browser and it showed up nicely but when trying to watch a video the curve rebooted.

Hi guys, I just changed my Emulation Mode in the browser general settings from BlackBerry to Openwave (WAP) and hit save. Now I can watch or save these videos on high. Before I could only watch on low. I don't even know what this does. Should I change it back?

Only the smaller files.

Youtube's mobile site doesn't work for me, but the tinytube site works fine for me if I enable Openwave WAP mode. If I leave BlackBerry mode on it says the target is too large for the device.

The BB doesn't support the media from YouTube. Tinytube is all that works for now.

It seems like people on at&t are having a lot of success getting TinyTube to work.

Are you guys adjusting anything other than the emulation mode? I've tried Openwave (WAP), Microsoft IE, and Blackberry modes, and I've only gotten one video (around 15 seconds, on Low) to download. Everything else I select gives me the "HTTP Error 413: Request Entity Too Large" error.

Anything else I should try?

Is the file size that the browser can handle configurable in BES?
