- Some videos will not play. Depends on the encoding codec. Try another. Also, it helps if you set your browser to Blackberry emulation.02-03-09 02:42 PMLike 0
- Could be some of that RIM data outage issues everyone in the US is having. Can you browse anywhere else? Have you tried the YouTube video app instead?02-03-09 02:53 PMLike 0
- thanks for the help guys...
still not working, but just found out the following, seems Vodaphone UK have a current issue with youtube, and no timescale to resolve it
****************
There is currently a network issue affecting YouTube streaming for certain phones on Vodafone UK - most noteably the Storm, and the Nokia N95 and N96 handsets, which is under investigating by our firewall team.
The case reference for this is HD1020851 - at present we have identified the main cause of the issue, but do not yet have a timescale for resolution
******************02-03-09 05:43 PMLike 0 - I am also having this exact problem, and have read MANY forums w/ diff opinions/solutions, but they dont work I still get the following error msg Every time I try to open a video w/the youtube app ""Player Exception: Cannot open tunnel. Cause: java.io.IOException: Cannot open tunnel" I have a fully unlocked BB storm 9530 - have tried numerous times/diff videos/removing the battery/uninstalling-reinstalling - same thing. It has to be some technical option somewhere, because others claim theirs works fine. And yes Im aware of the mobile site to view, which also doesnt work for me- it opens up my media player, then nothing everytime- but regardless i prefer the App, and it has worked for others, so I would need someone who has conquered this issue to PLEASE reply to me!! = Thanks03-03-09 01:31 PMLike 0
