    If I have YouTube open in another tab in the browser (playing a video) and move on to another tab it stops playing :/

    This not only work with YouTube but with all HTML5 videos from other websites.

    If you were to enable the desktop version of YT (flash videos), it will stop as soon you swipe up same goes for other flash heavy websites.

    PS: don't forget to turn off flash when not in use, as it eats up a chunk of RAM, uses more processing power and therefore squeezing much juice out of your Battery.

    Thx for the flash tip. Did not that.
    Love being able to listen to music while reading other sites.

It stops, goes back to your position, rebuffers, then starts playing again. I'm guessing there's some kind of limitation in Android that doesn't allow videos to run in the background at all, even if it's only meant to bring up the sound.
    Nope. YouTube plays on the screen..then a text or email comes in and I can have both on the same screen...YouTube keeps playing. smarting with a movie...keeps playing g while I answer a note otr text or check weather.... and no...It doesn't have to put into an active screen page where I can't use it either. It's all right there..
