Having problems streaming youtube videos with TOT?


Recommended Posts

Youtube "higher quality" video crack!

 

TOT has been blocking streaming of videos on youtube, because TOT wants to limit bandwidth use. I had to go through a proxy to even get the video to load. Then, I could only stream a youtube video, if youtube had a "higher quality" video option (this option appears just below the video box) and I selected that option.

 

You can automatically select the "higher quality" option for all videos by adding "&fmt=18" at the end of the web address. It is slower, and you will get significant buffering, but you can get all videos to play on TOT!

 

Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bF2OPG_G_M&fmt=18

 

With this crack, you don't even need to use a proxy anymore.

I have TOT and they don't stop me from streaming. That's an excellent tip on the high-quality format, by the way.

 

If you don't get proper streaming, just download the video and watch it locally. Easiest way is to plug in the YouTube URL at:

Zaphod,

 

I have the same problem on my Mac. Originally I thought it was an accelerator problem but I can watch streaming porn, no problem! :banana Unfortunately, because my connection speed is pretty crap the HQ versions aren't really an option. If I try to open a youtube vid through a linked file, I just get a message saying the video is no longer available. However, when I'm in BKK I have no problem at all with youtube but that'd probably down to the different ISP, as opposed to TOT.

 

Joe,

 

Thanks for the link ...... it's probably a better option for me.
