Watch YouTube videos on your Pocket PC directly from the website!

It may be too good to be true, but thanks to persistent Pocket PC Addict member johnnysu, there is a way to view YouTube and Google videos directly from your Pocket PC!

"I have discovered the solution! ThunderHawk Web Browser! Java v1.5 enabled internet explorer allows you to view all the streaming videos you want straight from any website right on your pocket pc!

...Make sure you've got the latest flash player for pocket pc's (found on adobe.com)...Proud to say that it does work!"

I tried to use this trick with my Opera browser, but wasn't able to install the Flash plugin directly... I'll let you know if it works later!

adobe is either not installing right or the trial version won't play the videos, well at least not on mine.

killaaznstylez is right, it does not support YouTube, also I found some good explanation about why in one of the post at aximsite. I will try to get the link later.
it could have been a great support for thunder walk if they can do this.... lets hope someone figure it how play YouTube on our pocket pc....

What? Is there no other way to see people making fools of themselves while I'm riding the bus??? ROFL

I guess we'll all have to continue using MAD magazine for our enlightenment...

I'm new to pocket pc's so let me get this straight. There is no way to view videos online with any of the pocket PCs because no one made a flash media player for them yet?

I can watch Youtube videos (after a fashon) on my Dell Axim X30H using Opera 8.65 and Flash player 7.
The X30 is pretty well the most powerful PDA available, but it's still dropping frames and buffering all the time...but so does my Desk PC on some videos. Time for Youtube to spend more money on their infrastructure, it's not lilke they can't afford it now!

Opera 8.65 is a beta that works for a month (unless someone can crack it) and Flashplayer 7 for PPC is free from Adobe.
Let us know how you get on...

watching Youtube videos on PDA

Tried both installs on my x30.....both say "this is not a valid Windows CE application". The Forum is blank, so what do I do now? There's no Contact us-type link.....

Presumably it worked ok on your PDA?
