YouTube HD App - Vibrant Themes and Apps

Anyone know if it will work? I pulled one from an Evo ROM, but it said it couldn't be installed. Would be nice to have it play in the highest def as default.

I used the one from cm 5.0.8. Worked like a charm. My girl's phone isn't rooted & she just installed the apk & upgraded the youtube app using astro

Isn't the I've from 5.0.8 just the regular one?

Right, my bad. I forgot I modded cm5.0.8 myself to have that in there from the start. Sorry about that, here's the apk I used

Isn't the factoryyoutube app on the vibrant hd? When I watch a video I click the menu soft key and scroll to the bottom and click watch in high quality.

The apk I posted has the option in the settings to set high quality as default

But When i watch Videos on the youtube app on my vibrant i go to settings and it says watch in normal quality that means it's already on high quality right?

I'm not sure. Are you using wifi? If you are in wifi, it will default to high quality. But this option will make it default to high quality if you are on edge, 3g or wifi

Well you learn something new everyday. You're welcome lol. Enjoy the new version

Thanks for the find. Works fine on my vibrant.
HQ video selection.

That would be nice. It's annoying having to go to settings and choose high quality ever time I watch a video. I get great 3g in my area so I rarely use wifi

Videos do not have separate tab. Just tap the video link at the end of each headline.
Just found that by clicking the grey grid at top left will give option to switch to video, radio etc. Decent app.

Oh no, i do not have a provider through the app (AT&T).
I watch through the website (espn3.com)
Very nice, had been killing me (at least on my galaxy nexus) having to watch through the browser.
Yeah, it actually maximizes to fullscreen now. Quality is still not as good as the browser, but I'm having problems with the ESPN3 website (doesn't go full-screen and the video keeps on streaming even if I close it).

i figured out in the browser not to click on the full-screen button, but do double-tap the screen to make the video full screen

Super Video, Floating & Popup

I originally found this on the N7000 forum.
If you have seen the ability to watch a video while doing another task for the Samsung Galaxy 3, then this is it.
Pretty much the same deal. Works well with the Note i717.
I am running the Hybrid ROM in Tablet mode and this app works great.
You can find this app in the Play Store. Here's a demo vid - copied link from app description.

The split screen ability in the Note 10.1 would be another great feature to have now...
Great find

Its an awesome app.
Btw, this app already comes pre-installed in the HYFR B4 ROM.
Is it safe for an app to collect a device's imei to their server? The EULA claims that it is used to verify the device. It is in the privacy policy.
thats similar to stickit..i have used for a while now.. idk which one is better though

the one you posted is better looking..im trying it out now!!
Compared to Stick It, this app is better. I really like it! Great Find!

OK all, while this app seams to have everything I would want it has one major thing I don't want LAG. just wondering is it doing this to everyone or just me? What I mean is this, when it plays a video it plays about 2 sec then buffers, but in the youtube app the same video will play with no issues. I am useinf the free version and have un installed and re installed it already. Also I am getting throttled speeds on ATT however as I have said youtube works just fine. Any ideas?

I haven't experienced any lag as of yet. Both on Flapjaxxx's UCLE2 and CM9.
@spade1031
No lag here and I'm still on FJ's GB ROM.
With more use I've noticed it seems to be only YouTube and only.the hd videos, any other site with hd works fine and the YouTube app with hd works fine. Might just be that I'm throttled, I'll post back after my new bill cycle and update. Just asking is anyone else throttled and working right? By the way I'm only getting hspa+ in my area. But still a GREAT app for anyone, thanks again for sharing.

EDIT: working fine now that I'm not throttled
Been playing with this for a couple days, pretty cool, no real issues to report on paranoid android.
Full screen low framerate
App: Supervideo (HW Decode)
I am experiencing low frame rate when switching to full screen. When the video is floating, it's perfectly fine.
Is there anything I can do to fix this?
App: MX Player (Free)
Full screen is perfectly fine.

Mod suggestion: picture in picture

I was messing around with my buddy galaxy s3 and I noticed they can do this picture in picture kind of thing where they can minimize the video and still use other functions on their phone. I was wondering if anyone can implement this mod in their room or even make it available for the EVO.

? you mean minimize a playing video and have it still play in the background? or be recording a video and then minimize while recording to do something else? im not quite sure what you are trying to get at here haha think you can find an example somewhere?
Watching video and minimize it
Sent from the euphoric state of my mind
or maybe he means this? i can do this with my computer monitor but it requires 2 different sources for video. so i can have my computer video full screen (via a dvi connection) but then have lets say a xbox playing in a small corner at the top through a different cable such as hdmi. looks something like this

just follow the link i posted on the from the market and you'll find the app that will let you do the video minimizing option...you can watch a video while texting or even browsing on the internet

No I believe he is talking about the "Pop-up Play" feature that the GS III introduced that lets you play a video, minimize it to do other stuff like text and browse while the video is still playing in a smaller "picture-in-picture" window like seen here. luisrod03 was also correct. Here is another app that let's you do the same thing but it isn't free like luisrod03's link.
Yes the app let me do what I was trying to do... I wanted to view a video while texting and doing things on the phone... Also when u tap on it it will go back to full screen but I do like that super app though

Here's another option that sounds like it does what you're asking for.

Only catches are that it's $1.79 and I've never used it.

YouTube quality issue on xperia z ultra c6806

Hi, does anyone else having the same issue as what I'm having? Youtube quality isn't as good on this device compared to galaxy note 3 or HTC one.
Videos play smoothly but the quality and the sharpness of the videos seems to blur and not as sharp and I already set the youtube setting to HD.

Download boat browser or another preferred browser with support for flash and watch 1080p without a problem.
If that's not an option, get the youtube mod allowing for 1080p streaming. Although I couldn't get it to work it might get fixed soon.
Turn off X-reality also, it kills YouTube.

Any workaround other than this to get videos to play at 1080p?

I already knew that option but its not as easy as playing via app. Anyway thanks for your suggestion
I tried Viral Youtube app and its quality even though max it support 720p as of now(earlier used to support 1080p) is really fantastic.I find it much better than default youtube app.
