Opera YouTube Through TCPMP?

[Richard Ward]

I love Opera 8.65, except when it comes to playing YouTube videos. I've got the latest stable release of Opera running on my 6800 (WM 6.0), however with the PocketPC Flash add-on (Adobe), the videos load horribly slow compared to PIE with the TCPMP Flash Bundle hack. Also, full screen appears to be only a dream since the video loads within the web page.

This is in regards to the full desktop version of youtube.com and *NOT* m.youtube.com!

Is there any way to pipe YouTube to TCPMP on Opera?

Thanks in advance!

Try using opera and viewing youtube videos through http://www.ytpocket.com/ ?

I've wondered the same thing. The only reason I keep PIE handy is for the TCPMP/FlashBundle for full screen YouTube. I even have YouTube's search page set as my Home Page in PIE.

Has anyone figured out how to pipe the real deal YouTube through TCPMP like all these IE hacks floating around? Come on guys! We're trying to get rid of PIE completely but it continues to be useful due to this hack....

yeah ive got opera mobile 8.65 also, but the only thing i do not use it for is youtube.
youtubeplayer is by far the best mobile youtube player ive ever used. the only thing ive found to be wrong with it is that the volume slide is a little tricky to use, just use the stylus

I had the latest version of CorePlayer with a built-in YouTube viewer thingy, but the full screen is really crappy, quality itself is very poor compared to PIE/TCPMP/FlashBundle. I don't think I've yet found a better full screen quality than my current set up. I'd love to axe the PIE and use something that searches faster but for now I've gone as far as making my own quick hack of the search feature so I don't have to load every damn thing on youtube.com just to search for a video in PIE.
