Play YouTube videos in your Mobile Phone

 YouTube updated its mobile site available at m.youtube.com to include all the videos from the desktop version and to provide access to your account, the option to rate videos and post meaningful comments. To use the mobile interface, you need a phone that is able to stream 3GP files over RTSP.

As long as your phone and mobile operator support streaming video, anyone can access YouTube for Mobile simply by going to ‘m.youtube.com’ in their phone browser. There are a couple requirements for supporting YouTube for Mobile:

1. Your device has to support RTSP streaming. To determine if your mobile device supports this type of streaming, you may want to check your device’s manual to find a description of its specifications.

2. Your service carrier has to allow streaming videos. You may want to contact your carrier for more information about the availability of data streaming on your mobile device.

A Java midlet currently available for some phones from Sony Ericsson (K800, W880) and Nokia (S60 3rd Edition phones: N73, N95, E65, 6110, 6120). The JAR file for Nokia phones can be found here, in case you want to test it on unsupported phones. YouTube’s mobile application also lets you upload videos from your phone. To install it, just go to m.youtube.com/app on your phone and follow the steps described in YouTube’s help center.

“You may be wondering, Is YouTube for Mobile the same as what’s available on the Helio Ocean or Apple iPhone? In a nutshell, yes — YouTube for Mobile is all about bringing video to mobile phones. We believe in providing the best user experience possible for all users, which in some cases means different YouTube solutions for different phones,” explains the YouTube blog.
