iPhone not playing certain YouTube videos

They have not been converted for iPhone use yet.

 

that's not cool i have the same problem...... they shouldn't say watch youtube vids if you can't watch them all

 

there are millions of videos on youtube and hundreds if not thousand uploaded per day, as we type here they may very well be converting them, i thought i read somewhere they would catch up by august

 

"they shouldn't say watch youtube vids if you can't watch them all"

Right...... And video rental stores should not rent out videos unless they have them ALL.

 

It's frustrating too, because videos I've uploaded to YouTube very recently, as in after the release of iPhone don't show up in the iPhone YouTube search and if presented with the link to the video say in link form, the YouTube app attempts to open the video but will not play it. I know that it obviously doesn't play the flash version, but other links I've followed loads up the H.264 version within the app, as it should. I just think they should encode all new videos in H.264. Or are they already?

 

To me, this is the dumbest thing about the iPhone. Why not just allow flash support in the browser, then we wouldn't have to deal with this, and youtube wouldn't have to convert any videos. I also wonder why new videos don't automatically get converted when they are uploaded.

 

I guess that's true, but i just didn't expect it.

 

YouTube not loading videos on iPhone 4S

I bought an iPhone 4s last week. I cannot find certain movies that I could find last week on my 3GS and I keep getting an error message "Cannot load movie" when I email a youtube link and try to play certain YouTube videos through Safari even though my 3GS could load these movies fine last week. Any ideas? Thanks.
