Hi
I have read online that while playing a video you should be able to press the three. ... symbol and choose share to attach the video to an email etc. I don't seem to get the three dots on my titan. Does it work for anyone else? Cheers si
I shot a short video, scrolled over to that video, hit the "triple-dot", hit "share", selected an email account and a blank email with the mp4 video attachment was created for me. If you try it that way does it work? Note that if I select a video from Skydrive I do not see the triple-dot. However, using the newly-released Skydrive app, you can email a link to a video (or picture or file).

thanks for the reply. Can't seem to get the triple dot anywhere where video is involved. Emailng a video is still beyond me!
is this a video you recorded on the phone or one that is on a site somewhere?
Not while you are playing a video. Before you play a video.
Go into your camera roll, tap a video to bring it up, and there should be the three dots on the bottom that allow you to share a video via e-mail, Facebook, and SkyDrive.
Note: Videos cannot be sent via MMS unless you are forwarding a video that has already been sent to you via MMS.

thanks, that was it. Just didn't think to do it that way. A little counter intuitive to have to go through photos to a video but now I understand

Does anyone know how you can open video attachments emailed to you in Gmail? My girlfriend has a blackberry and when she emails me a video taken from her phone, I cant open it. This blows my mind how this phone can do so much and has the best gmail client, yet can't do 2007 technology such as playing a simple video attachment. This really grinds my gears! There has got to be a way to view video attachments.
Anyone else experiencing this ever since the 1.6.1 facebook update? I still see it with 1.6.2.
Prior to 1.6.1 youtube video links would always prompt which video player/browser you wanted to play the video until you set one as the default. I would select the youtube app and set it as default. Whenever I selected a youtube video link it would just start playing. I no longer see that prompt. I uninstalled/reinstalled facebook, cleared the data/cache on youtube...nothing.
edit: went to applications->manage applications->browser and selected clear defaults. now when I launch a video from fb I get a prompt...except youtube is not an option.
after clearing defaults, uninstall fb, reinstall fb...got youtube listed in the complete action list, set it as default, video launched in youtube. exited, tried the same video again and got a complete action prompt...youtube is not listed in the complete action prompt.
edit2: seems like a fb 1.6.1/1.6.2 issue. When I select Videos in the news feed, no youtube video links appear. Seems like the fb app does not recognize the youtube links as videos, only as a traditional link. As a result the youtube app is not listed in the complete action list. I could be wrong .
edit3: ok, if anyone cares, lol....at the 'main' facebook app screen, the one with the news feed, profile, etc icons and a set of posted pics/videos near the bottom, if I select a video there, it brings up the person's post sharing the youtube video and when I select it the video launches through the youtube app. every time. Again, only when I select the video in a news feed does it never launch through the youtube app or list the youtube app in the complete action list.
Very minor drawback with the video not just playing right away, just wondering if anyone else is getting this behavior.
i cant seem to find the default video app on my transformers, is there anyway to view videos without flicking through the gallery? because i lots of pictures and its Pain in ass to find my videos thanks
I don't see anything that says video. But if you use the MyNet app it shows you the videos on your TP as well as being able to check your lan, etc.
thats lame the video app only comes up when u click on video file in gallery o thr other means
every time i try to send a video via mms or text i cant because the file is to big. is there anyway to make the video smaller or do i need an app to resize the video files? thanks
If you know that your going to want to send the video via one of those methods, start off in one and select video with the attach clip. Then the video will automatically be compressed to fit into the MMS or Email. Of course, the video will look blocky and be limited to a certain time frame, but this will allow you to send the video.
Plugging the phone or sd card directly into my PC is what's worked best for me personally.
Hi there, i am a proud owner of an i9300, and im searching for a proper youtube downloader/converter to use. I've tested TubeMusic which is quite good ( it embeds into the official android youtube application, and whe u see a video, you press "share" icon and it adds the "Download" option. The only problem is that the files downloaded can only be played properly with the "Tube Music" player. They are still in .mp3 format and they are stored in the hidden fodler ".tubemusic" but the names are all messed up. I'd love if they could give us the setting to download wherever we want, and if it didnt mess with the mp3 names. Any ideas?
I've always used 'Tubemate' which isn't on Google play anymore but you can it from searching google.
You can specify what quality/resolution it downloads in or as an mp3. I would also be interested if anyone else has some other suggestions for YouTube downloaders.
Tubemate
Hm.. Im trying it right now, seems good but it doesnt embed in the official youtube application. Its an application on its own. Very good tho! Thanks!:laugh:
If you use the proper youtube app, you can enable 'preload' (either on subscriptions or watch later).
I use Opera Mini to download YouTube vids. I navigate to the site, search for the video and when I click play or watch it automatically downloads the video in either mp4 or 3gp format depending on if I have his or low video setting enabled. Not sure if this is stock on the opera mini or if I downloaded something to enable it but it used to do the same on my Desire Z with the same app.

Google wants to leverage it's Youtube platform as a delivery network for commercial entities. That won't work if everyone can install an app to rip the video within seconds.
So they have to make it somewhat harder, since it's technically not possible to block such services/apps entirely.

By "embed" do you mean that this app is added as an intent from the Share option available on any YouTube video?
If so, TubeMate does this as well. Actually almost any app that is registered as a video filetype handler should be available from YouTube's Share menu.
