HTC One M7 :: Can't Play Videos - Loading Screen For YouTube
Jun 17, 2014
Recently, I have been dealing with the problem of not being able to play videos on my HTC One. It is a Verizon version, using Android 4.4.2 and Sense 6, not rooted.
I am not able to play videos in YouTube, Chrome, or even videos I have taken with my own camera. For YouTube videos, it gives me a loading screen, then says, "There was a problem while playing. Touch to retry." When I try to play my own video, it tries to load, then gives me the HTC error message, saying, "Sorry, this video cannot be played." The same happens in Chrome.
The interesting thing is, some days I'll be able to watch a few videos just fine. Then after a couple I try to watch another and it gives me the error message. So I'm not really sure what is happening.
How to stop the Default browser to play Youtube Videos in Full Screen ? I don't want to play them in full screen automatically. I am trying to find something , touching where the screen would go back to normal mode of playing youtube videos.
I listen to a great deal of podcasts, audiobooks and music on youtube. Oftentimes I want to work and listen at the same time, so I will put my phone in my jacket/pants/table while I work, but sometimes I will bump the screen while working and it stops the YouTube video or makes it jump ahead/back.
I have an Xperia X8. Whenever i watch videos on You tube, the video plays in a very small screen.It doesn't use the full screen.Kindly advise on whether this is an issue with the videos.I have to use any different player to view them in full screen if so please let me know the name of player and where I can get the player
I recently started having a problem with my Z3, in which absolutely no videos will play, from ones I've recorded, and even videos off Youtube, Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram etc. They just will go to a black screen, or tell me there was an error.
I was using tubemate app(downloaded outside playstore) previously to download YouTube videos..recently I can't download any videos & can't download even new versions f app from external sources too..
I've only had my GS5 for a month and so this is my first time trying to upload my videos to YouTube. And it's not working.
I am in the gallery, on the video I want to upload, I tap on the share symbol, I select YouTube and then write a title, description and choose options. I then hit the upload symbol. It then goes to my list of uploads and shows the video I'm trying to upload at the top, but when I tap on it, nothing. When I tap on the 3 dots to the right of the thumbnail, it gives me the option to cancel download. But it's not really doing anything! I let it sit like that for over 5 minutes and nothing changes.
I've also tried doing it the opposite way and tapping on the upload option in YouTube, but that does not even give me an option to upload from my gallery which is super weird. It only allows me to choose from downloads.
I have a phone with a 1080p display, so it bothers me that I can't take advantage of this while watching YouTube. Is it possible to get around this somehow, or has Google been in talks of updating the YouTube app to support 1080p video on certain devices?
Just bought the m8 and trying to figure out why YouTube videos look "not hd", even when I search hd 1080p videos... Under the YouTube settings it only shows up to 720p. On all of my other phones the YouTube videos look a lot better. Is it the new YouTube app or my phone?
When I updated my z3 to lollipop I found a problem in youtube app it's become not playing videos anymore. I tried to delete the cash but nothing happened even I tried to reinstall it again but not solved.
Finally I thought maybe the Google play service it's old or not compatible or something like that but nothing change even with latest update from Google play service.
For notice I do format to my phone before I install the new update to Android lollipop.
Is there any reason why some videos on YouTube come up with this phrase. This is my wife's YouTube channel and some of her videos work and some do not. She's a Zumba instructor and all her videos have music to them and in the subject. I know YouTube is strict now on music being posted for copyright purposes. But the same video works on my wife's Windows phone and my daughters iPhone. Not sure if it's my phone. But other videos play from my wife too on my phone with no problems . Just some do not..
Today I uploaded a video to YouTube recorded on my lg g4 in HD uhd and fhd but after it uploaded I could only play back to a definition of 480p max. Why or what do I ave to do to make it greater ?
I get a YouTube video in my news feed and when I click on it, it opens and tries to use the system video player to play the video. Which has a cappy resolution. It doesn't give me an option to open with YouTube like my old note2 did.
Suddenly today my iPhone don't play any kind of video and after I try, becomes slower, can this be a virus? what can I do? I did not drop my phone or something like that .. That could damage it, so what could be??
all of a sudden i am now unable to view any videos on my se xperia ray.whether it be a video which is stored on my mobile or one that is on Internet etc. i am unable to see-anything but a green screen.there is sound when the video is playing but no picture. how to return the mobile to factory settings?
This is only a problem in the stock browser. When I hit the play button the video starts to load but never plays and then just shows the replay screen/related videos screen that usually comes up after watching a video.
I used to be able just to tap a little icon on any video I was watching and it would play straight away on my Samsung smart tv. It's now stopped being able to do this but it still does on my husbands identical phone.
The feature to enable background play is gone in the setting menu. I don't know why I've tried everything except reformatting my phone. It's starting to get annoying. I thought it might just be a glitch that Google is trying to fix but its been this way for a month. I've tried uninstalling YouTube I've wiped everything I could and its still like this. P
I rooted my device on 5.1.1 with odin insatlled some things like flasher to flash twrp but after i tried to install freedom (in app purchses app) there was a messege "google play stopped wprking" i rebooted and everything was ok i tried another version of freedom and now google play and youtube say "no connection".....
Firstly, when I watch video on youtube about 4-6 clips - the error message appear: "Please touch to try again" - even I touch multiple times it still can not play.
Then, I go to the Video App (Sony), surprisingly, the video didn't play. It appear an error message: "Can not play this video" - I try with every single video on my phone and still has the same error message.
And more surprisingly, even the video on facebook have the same problem too.
So it must be like: If I watch video on any app, suddenly the clip can not play or just keep loading infinity, these app will be "infected" immideately (at the same time as well). The only thing I can do is reboot the phone.
I know reboot phone is just spend my little time around 15-30 seconds maybe. But it is very annoying to happen with very frequently.
I have every app update and ATT Galaxy s6 update. I ve deleted the app, made a new account, restarted device, cleared cache, cleared data..everything...Ive ready people are having the same issue but there doesn't seen to be a resolution.
Whenever I open Youtube all hat shows up is the loading circle and nothing else will happen. When I open the Google Play Store the background just shows white and nothing else. This has been happening for the last couple days. I have tried force stopping both of them and tried everything to try getting them to work.
