Hello

I wanted to use Android-x86 to watch YouTube using as little bandwidth
as possible on my mobile broadband.

Every time I use the default browser to access YouTube and try to
watch a video I get:

"Web page not available
The Web page at vnd.youtube:tAkLEU5ChXY?
vndapp=youtube_mobile&vndclient=mv-google&vndel=home
might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new
address."

Any ideas?

Would be great if anyone can help. This is my main reason for wanting
to use Android-x86.

Hi,

I don't have a solution, but FYI, I get the same problem ...

You need to get the youtube client from Android phone and it should
work. When the web tries to access a video, it will do an internal
broadcast to find which application can handle such a media type. If
it can not find such an application it will return an error.

I found somewhere to download youtube.apk.

How do I get it into my VB Android?

I installed it by emailing it to myself.

But it's constantly stuck saying "Loading video..."

Have you read the AppHow on android-x86.org?

Also read this if you want to pack it into the iso:

I read the App How To and I can see youtube.apk has installed. I can
run the YouTube app on it's own and browse videos, it just gets stuck
when I try to play any video.

Anyone else had this problem?

I click on a video, the screen goes black with a circle of lines in
the middle & a message saying "Loading video...", then nothing.

After a while I get a message saying something like this app is not
responding, force quit or wait?
