Find an older hacked youtube app, or flash a JellyBomb rom that includes a version of Youtube that can play with screen off and allows downloading of vids.

YouTube with screen off

Has there been any attempt to modify the current YouTube app so that you can listen to YouTube with the screen off? That feature is really missed.

KMplayer works nice thanks! VLC seems to have a freezing issue when watching the videos.

I have missed this feature since my SGS1. I dont think there is any system setting that will change this behaviour, but people have suggested using apps like Stick It and Super Video, Floating & Popup. I havent tried them so dont know if they will accomplish what you want.
PvStar+ on the market works for it

In app video problem

I was wondering if anyone knew a fix for this. When I go into apps like ign and there is a video to watch I can't get the video to play and go into media format. Usually all I can get is the sound from the video. Is there any app or Rom I can download to fix this?

Are you using stock player? I use MX player and it works great

I just downloaded the pro version of mx player and I still am having that issue. For example if you download the free ign app in the play store then click reviews in the app, then let's say you click black Ops 2 in the review section, and then proceed to try and watch the video at the top it will not play except for maybe audio.

It sounds like codec problem. I know MX has different codec downloads in the play store. I just never had this issue before

Tried every codec and still not working. Is anyone able to download the ign app to see if it's just me or the app itself? If anyone downloads it go into reviews>black ops 2>click the video at the top of the review and see if you can get it to work

Why struggle with getting the app to work when you get the same experience when you goto ign.com? Plus I got the video to play just fine from the browser... good luck!
edit: the video did not play from the app for me either
The app is more convenient plus I've had this problem in other apps with videos attached

Thanks but like I said others apps give the same problem this was just the easiest example to post

I'm guessing these are just app problems with bad development

Youtube playing on background?

Hey everyone
i was wondering how to play youtube videos on the background so i can multitask. Right now if i play a video on youtube i have to stay on that video for it to be playing.
I wanna listen to music from youtube while im reading a book, since i dont ever download songs to my nex 7.
My friend can do it with his iphone 5, i saw him playing a song from youtube while his phone was locked.
Any ideas? Or am i missing an app or aomething?

I use the YouTube Player by FREEdi. Here's the link for the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsInR3LmNvbS5mcmVlZGkueW91dHViZS5wbGF5ZXIiXQ..
It works great! There's an iOS version too, just in case you have an iOS device.

You can install BSplayer that allow you to reduce vids in a small pop up who keeps playing while you're doing something else with your phone...
This is great info, be nice if Youtube natively supported playing in the background like Tunein Radio. I'll give this a go later on too.
Another option is StickIt:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sImNvbS5teWJveWZyaWVuZGlzYWdlZWsuc3RpY2tpdCJd
it gives you pop up windows you can resize and place over other apps or keep on your homescreen.
