Hi,

My P1i loads m.youtube.com videos forever. Nothing ever seems to play. Eventually, the streaming program says the link may be wrong. Anyone else experiencing this?

WiFi. I just finished unbranding and updating to a WG1 firmware, no change.

I've got the same problem with any streaming video on my P1i, both through 3G and WiFi. Haven't been able to figure out what's wrong though so sorry can't help (yet).

I confirm, it doesn't work. Probably there is something wrong with the service because a couple of days it worked flawlessly.

Maybe they changed something in youtube or video format.
Why don't you post the address of a video that *works*, so others can try?

I don't believe the p1 actually supports the h263/amr codec used by youtube mobile. It is supposed to, but at the moment I don't think it does.

Myself, i've never even tried to use youtube mobile - i'd rather use a pc for it - so hadn't noticed. Incidentally I attempted this via WIFI.

[Edit] has anyone tried changing settings of the media viewer? proxy settings etc?

On my p1i (no brand) if I type "youtube" on google search with opera, the first address displayed is http://m.youtube.com/ (mobile version of youtube).
Via Umts clip streaming works, via Wlan does not work!!!

router problem?

Can all who are sucessfully browsing to mobile youtube confirm if they are doing so over wlan or 3g? and what their settings are (if wlan)?

I have just tried and it works without any problem over 3G. I tried to play the first video in the featured section called "Re:National Coming Out Day 2007". I think the problems I had before were caused by some work related to the site, I can see that they have changed the layout a bit.
