Use a desktop browser like Skyfire or Dolphin HD. You can find both browsers and more in market.

Here is two screenshots from Vudu watching a trailer with Skyfire Browser. One is showing fullscreen mode and one isn't. The trailers I watched played excellent with skyfire.
Yea im able to watch trailers too, but when i play the movie it just never loads it buffers and then just stays black. but the trailers play just fine. thanks for testing that out. im sure i might need some sort of flash hack at this point.
When playing music with the stock Music Player application on my phone and turning the phone screen off or multitasking, the music is still able to play in the background. Is it possible to do the same with the stock YouTube app? I want to let the audio of the YouTube video I am watching to keep playing when I either exit out of the app or when I press the power button on my phone to turn off the screen to save battery. Although I can just set my phone screen to not go off when idle for a certain amount of time, but then again, that is battery consuming.
Phone information:
-Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G from T-Mobile
-Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4
-Rooted
-No Custom Rom Installed
I dont think you can achieve this via the stock Youtube app.. But you can do this if you are browsing youtube via browser.. Have a look at the below guide..

Not true.
Even when I view a youtube video in the browsrer and turn off the screen (or even do as much as press the menu button) it stops playing.
Please I need this as I want to listen to youtube at work, where I can't have the distraction of a video in the corner of my eye, or pssibly nsfw videos.
I don't want to try one of the gazillion market apps or get biased suggestions of such app. I want an official or at least semi-official (i.e. widely used) solution.
Hi this problem came up today.
normally i download videos from fb with FVD when i click on the videos i get options which app to open with.
But today the videos just start playing im facebooks built in player.
How do i stop it doing this?
Galaxy S3 I9300 4.3
yes it does
Facebook made its player months ago, it open videos with its player for me too. To mention some times it doesn't and lets me chose with what I open but I think thats just a bug.
So you will face that from now on.

try clearing from Settings/Applications manager/All Apps tab-->Facebook - Clear Defaults button
did your FVD app get updated?
if yes, it might require a configuration like it did the first time you installed it
as suggested by @ra3or clearing app data and cache from your application settings is suggested.
tried that didnt work. hatwvthis built in feature cant download vids no more
Not sure if this is the correct place for this....
But would some crafty developer PLEASE, PLEASE make a video player for the Gear S?
Thank you.

I'm thinking of try to do this, but curious how do you see this working? Playing videos on phone storage, like a standalone player? or browsing videos on the phone? or something else?
Let's be clear I can't write a netflix or amazon app or any other proprietary streaming service.

On the original Gear, i could simply transfer videos into the pictures folder on the Gear, they would show up in the Gallery, and then I could play them.
Very simple.
Thank you for considering giving this a try!

I would also like to see this happen. I do get some small video clips Texted to my by my daughter out of state and would love to see them on my Gear S even though they would be very small.
Hope it can be done.. thanks for trying

There is a video folder on the Gear S already we just have to have it connected to the computer in order to use it so if you could unhide it somehow or integrated it with gallery

That doesn't mean the Gear S can play videos?. I would think that the Gear would need a player of some type and maybe Flash or Java?.

I did take a video that I made and converted it to a 3GP format. Tried to send it to my watch using gear but gear didn't recognize the video so I emailed it to a buddy who in turn text me with the video as a attachment and you are right. it did play just fine on the Gear S.
If there was a App that could see the video files on the gear, I would assume that if it was saved in the 3gp format it would be able to play. not sure about other video formats, I could play around with it and see if it will play something other than the 3GP.

Ok I'm waiting for some feedback on my other app, so I'm gonna switch gears for a bit and explore the video aspects. I'll report back wehn I know something.
Update:
So this how far I got in a couple hours.
Can access Video Folder
Can definitely write a video app to list and play videos from the folder
can rotate video to landscape or play portrait(Haven't figured out fullscreen yet)
Play MP4 with issue, should play MKV as well.
Plays Audio
We should easily be able t browse files on the phone as well and autodownload.
I'll do some more testing of video capabilities. More info to come.
You can see a demo here

Now for the bad news, this type of app needs to go through the samsung app store and I'm still waiting on myb dev setup for this. As soon as I get set up I will clean this up and release it through samsung, but it may take a while
Fantastic!

That looks great! You mentioned in your post about Portrait/Landscape....... If you do develop this, please let us have the option of either.....I prefer portrait, simply because when the watch is on your wrist, the is the normal viewing angle.
Thank you so much!!!!!

Clever guy
The video player has been submitted to the app store. This version will be free with no restrictions. If I make a more advanced edition it will be a different app, so you can continue to enjoy the free edition.
Now we're just waiting on Samsung......

Yeah this is my first attempt at submitting to Samsung. I have not idea how long it takes or how often they reject apps and for what reasons. We'll see.
This one is pretty simple so hopefully it won't take too many go arounds.
I was surprised to find my app works just as well on my gear 2.
Thank you so much!!

Not very imaginative, but I don't get into names
Source code?
Would you be willing to post the source code if Samsung says no or takes too long?

If they say no(I can't imagine why) I will post the code. The app has moved to the next step in their process. Still no idea how much longer it will take.
Update: It has moved one step further in the process. it is now in "Under test verification"
Any idea how to fix youtube buffering ? My internet is strong, i don't have this problem on other devices. Basically when i turn from 720p to 1080p it starts to buffering, any fix for it?
YouTube Vanced - Download YouTube Vanced APK
YouTube Vanced is modded version of YouTube client for Android
youtubevanced.com
Try this
YouTube Vanced is no longer being actively developed and has been discontinued. However, there is an alternative called ReVanced, which is a community-driven project that continues to provide a similar ad-free YouTube experience with additional features. If you enjoyed using YouTube Vanced, you may want to give ReVanced a try.
Alternatively, NewPipe works well, too.
