TP Youtube video search results are limited (removed)

For example...

Compare search results on both the Desktop and TP ... search "bravery time won't let me go"

The first two search results from the Desktop will give you the official music video from universalmusicgroup.

You won't be able to find the official video... or a copy of the official video from the TP. You'll be able to find covers, imitators etc... but not the music video.

That is because TP uses myoutube. it's the mobile version of youtube.

I noticed this as well... and all I can say to this is, Skyfire VGA can't get here soon enough.

the kinoma app gives you full access, it also allows you to log-in to youtube so you can rate, post comments, and watch flagged videos.... also another option is to load the flashlite plug-in and watch the vids inside the opera browser

The problem with the flashlite plugin, it slows the web browsing considerably.

Kinoma does not give full access to search results on Youtube.

Ah! I'm not the only one that noticed! Some of my favorite videos weren't on the mobile version, which severely pissed me off.

I hope someone manages to make a workaround... Either that, or YouTube needs to increase the rate at which their videos are 'mobilized'

there's nothing I can't find & watch via kinoma vs the desktop... of course it's slower because it only loads 20 results at a time but there is nothing I haven't been able to find/watch on youtube via kinoma... it even allows you to paste a youtube addy and play the vids that way

is it me or is the Kinoma application isn't built for VGA? Everything seems out of focused (words/video). Audio is great.
