Hi,

Had omnia for about a month now. Great phone however, when going to m.youtube.com the streaming of videos is awful its a small box and its all patchy in it. How can i play youtube clips full screen and full quality?

I went to my local network store and they said oh its windows 6.1 means they dont stream well?????????? lol

The youtube player from this link works great for me, best one that i've seen for my Omnia.

I'll be back, in the mean time check out my other posts....

Yes, get the official YouTube player as stated in the post above, works a charm. However its very slow on Edge or anything less, so if you planning to use it, make sure you have 3g or wifi near by

or something else to do while it buffers!

Nice player. Only one minor problem -- isn't full-screen on the Omnia, and there's no way to set the quality or desired codec.

CorePlayer's built-in YouTube player is much better and more flexible (all of CorePlayer's rich feature set is functional), and their implementation of YouTube protocol includes the ability to set a variety of coding formats and quality.

Sadly, CorePlayer's YouTube interface just recently started having problems, and won't play an increasing number of videos (no error -- just doesn't play, as if there's no data). I've posted about it over in their forums, and it will no doubt be fixed.

When it works, there's no better player out there for YouTube on the Omnia. Can adjust settings to get full-screen, high-res, high-bandwidth smooth playback (subject to the limitation of the source video resolution and quality, of course).
