Streaming Video with N95

[mightypun]

Please help, I have a Nokia N95 with Real Player and Flash Lite 2.0 installed. Why is it that I cannot view streaming videos on websites such as you tube?

Is there an application (pref freeware) I can download to enable me to play all video?

Thanks

Get emTube, brilliant freeware that will let you play youtube vids (in addition to downloading them to your phone). Make sure to get the version that works with the accelerometer!

This is due to the version of Flash Lite installed on the phone (as you mentioned its version 2). This version of Flash doesn't support streaming video. As such sites like YouTube and Google Video will not work using the browser. Flash Lite 3 is available, but Nokia haven't updated the firmware to start using it yet so 3rd party solutions are the only option.

I agree with NZ, emTube is one of, if not THE best around.

Theres a couple of great posts about streaming to the N95 at snoyt's vox blog (would post link but not yet allowed - too few posts).

I thought that was the point of the Video Centre application...to play YouTube videos! I'm so confused...
