G19 Youtube app

Heey,

 

When I use the youtube app on the G19 it always says  "No video available".

I do get a list of top rated movies or most watched (or whatever you want). There I see the name and a small video image. But when I press OK to watch the movie it just says that it isn't available. No matter what movie I try.

 

I already tried disabling my firewall and virusscanner but nothing helped.

Any thoughts on this how to fix it?

 

(the normal film viewer to watch movies from your PC works fine though)

 

Thanx!

Are you using a proxy? The only issue I know of is when you're using an http proxy.

Hey,

 

Nope I don't use a proxy. At least not that I know.

Strange. You could try reinstalling the Adobe Flash Player. You need that to see the YouTube videos.

Not sure why it's not working. So, you are able to watch YouTube from a normal browser, right? (I have to ask, because some sites, countries will deliberately block YouTube)

Re: G19 Youtube app

Yes I got it working :smileyhappy:

 

I normally use firefox, and youtube worked there. But after reading your post I tried to watch youtube on Internet Explorer. And I noticed that I didn't have flash installed for Internet Explorer (I never use that so I didn't notice). After installing flash on IE and restarting LCDYT.exe it worked :smileyhappy:

 

(I do think it's weird that you need flash for IE that you never use to get the Youtube app for the G19 working, it would be easier if Logitech implemented flash in the app)

 

Thanx for your effort!

Re: G19 Youtube app

Actually, I remember getting a flash-specific message inside the YouTube applet when one of my machines had no Flash installed. Not sure why you didn't get that message. Glad you got it working though.

Re: G19 Youtube app

I'm having the same problem.  No proxy, can play youtube videos in either Firefox or IE.  Always says No video available.

Re: G19 Youtube app

What version of Windows? 32-bit, 64-bit?

What version of Flash do you have installed?

Do you at least get the thumbnail images of the videos?
