youtube question

[nitin2003]

Hi,

If we go to m.youtube.com and want to watch a video, on click of play button the video opens up media player and tries to load the video there.
On some machines, nothing will happen and video will not load at all.

Now, how to load the video using zenno for mobile views? Any idea?

Clicking a video will try to run an application. Do you really need the mobile version? if so, you need to set an app to read video. Otherwise, you can set the agent to mobile and that should work as fine.

You can set mobile user-agent in Profile Settings.!

I guess the problem with rtsp use of mobile version of tube. It is necessary to edit gecko engine config to enable it. There is no such a feature now. You сan still use PC version of this.

Adding to this...
When we play a video on some site with youtube plugins to play the video within the site, if we use mobile user agents, youtube disables the plugin by identifying that the views are not coming from a mobile.
e.g. if I visit this - http://freemovieszone.com/bond-movie-trailers using a normal windows browser, it works fine and video will play on the website but if I use mobile user agents using zenno, the video won't play at all. I mean, it will not be clickable and video won't play at all.

So, it seems google is able to identify that we are using a bot and are not exactly using a mobile device?

Any comments/suggestions?

If that site is detecting your useragent as iOS video would be disabled.

Actually I have tried it using random profile user agent generation and by setting latest mobile user agents manually also within a set step..but none of it worked..So i believe youtube finds out that this view is coming from a computer and not a mobile device, hence they don't load the video.. but when i visit this link from my mobile device, it works fine..
