Is it possible to view online videos from the stock android browser on an external video player app. Now the video just opens in the stock browser. I don't always get the video choose prompt when viewing a video on the stock browser.

I think it depends on the browser.. If browser has inbuilt video streaming functionality then it will not show any prompt.. And video will be played in browser.. I use chrome and dolphin both and both have inbuilt video player.. So choose other browse other than these two like inbuilt Android browser..

Hi all,
I love watching YouTube HD videos on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 but have a WiFi only model and when not at home I have no way of watching them :-( Can anyone suggest an app that will allow me to copy\save them in HD to the tab? I downloaded BestTube last night but it looks like it's designed for phones only as when I play back the video it's tiny and there is no way to make it full screen....
Cheers,
M

Re: Download Youtube videos
Download the Program Ultraget Video (Free).
After this go to YouTube.com and Click in your favorite Video Clip.
Highlight the URL and right click the mouse and select "copy".
Enter To the Program Ultraget Video, And Click in "IMPORT VIDEO" and paste your link of YouTube in the box there and click on "OK".
Wait for a few seconds and a Download (FLV Format) message will appear.
After you download the video, you need a special Player to play youtube videos.
This is because the file is in .FLV and other formats.
Hi,
1) I tried to look at the video site from OEAMTC (Austrian Touring Club) - http://tv.oeamtc.at -and the stock browser is not able to playback the videos there.
Actually I tried Doplhin and Opera as well, same issue. WIth Mozilla I could finally playback (very laggy) and download the files. They are .webm videofiles and can playback with ALL video Appy I have on my phone. Stock as well as QicPic and MX Player.
I also could playback the files when using the stock internet browser on my Nexus S, so any idea why the stock browser on SGS2 makes troubles on these videos???
2.) When opening the accuweather from the widged, then going to more / details, it always opens accuweather in english, altough I set my preference on accuweather homepage to german. Is there any setting identifying the browser to prefer german????? Any setting in Accuweather application that brings up the webpage in German? haven't found anything.
Thanks

Can anyone confirm the behavior??

I found out the following:
.webm files cannot be opened with stock file manager, as they seem not to be known (unknown filetype) altough they are known by Rhytm Software'S Filemanager (and can be opend as Video file) or as they can be associated with Astro File Manager.
Is there any way to tell the Samsuns System that this file is a videofile and should be opend with e.g. MX PLayer? I guess then I can directly stream it from Internet application....
Any ideas?
Can anyone check.. would really like to know if this behaviour is normal...
In the meantime I do not expect that there is a possible fix.

ya there is a way..
go to my files and select any video file..
click on it..
a pop-up should appear asking you which program should be used to play the file..
check the use as default button and then select the mx player..
from now on whenever you play a video.. it will open in mx player unless you open it via gallery
also while streaming online you cant select a particular app through which the browser will play the vid..

Thanks. Actually for general purpose I could link MX Player to the .webm fileformat, and that also works.
For the Samsung Stock file browser as well as internet browser it still and immediately tells: this file type not supported, no program can run it....(and this although on astro file manager its already assigned to MX player.) So not even a chance to assign it by the normal way...

Hello.
I have a question . Is there any streaming videos downloader for android devices ??
Not for youtube but for any site I mean a downloader that works on any video streaming site no matter what it is . And no problem if it downloads it as Flv file because I have MX player.
What I mean by streaming videos r videos that r watched online like youtube.

I can already watch streaming videos because I have flash player, what I'm looking for is an android app where in I can download direct from the streaming video just like IDM for pc:')
.... rather than youtube app.
Hey guys,
Pretty self explanitory question.
I have tried Boat Browser and Dolphin, and they both behave the same way. If I google search for a youtube video through one of those browsers, and I click the youtube link from the google results... it will go to the youtube mobile page within the browser (rather than open the youtube app and play the video).
Anyone know how to force the youtube app to always play videos linked from browsers?
Thanks for any help.
U can try tubemate for watching Youtube Videos in different resolutions and Also you can download them...

Check if you have defaults set for those browsers (clear them if yes).
