Stream Flash Video files directly from YouTube with your N95 mobile device and Flash Lite 3

I was googling  for a tool to download and play video files (Flash Video) on my new Nokia N95 8GB when I found this free wonderful mobile application : emTube.

emTube is a Flash Lite 3 application for Symbian S60 3rd edition phones that allows you to:

# Search and browse videos on YouTube.
# Download selected videos onto your phone.
# Stream FlashVideo files directly from YouTube.
# Play local FlashVideo files.

Other features:

- Audio and position control during playback.
- Normal and full screen (portrait and landscape mode) video playback.
- Ability to use built in accelerometer to rotate video between portrait/landscape mode.

The emTube supports the Nokia N95 accellerometer plug ing to detect movement orientation of the phone and to change the user interface of the played video.
Cooool !

Ciao Marco,

I do not think this is a FL3 application. The developer ported the ffmpeg library to S60 to encode the flv video files.

No way!!! this is great! well at least for Symbian, but it would be even greater if Adobe releases a version for Nokia's OS 3rd and 4 editios :-D

Hi,
Iam a Flash lite beginner. I have tried to create a video appliation, viz streams a video from remote server and plays in my device. I used video class and play method. Here, i have some queries ....
==>Internally how play method is getting RTSP/RTP data from remote server?
Is decoding and rendering part handled by the device player???
==>Or Play method is using symbian libraries to demultiplex & decode RTP data for decoding?
==>Whether Flash lite is striping RTSP/RTP headers and giving only RTSP/RTP data to device player?
==>In remote video streaming, upto what extent play method is using device player?
==>Finally, can we customize play() ...

Thanks in advance...
