Would be great to be able to watch youtube videos in fullscreen (possibly landscape), currently they look small in the stock browser.

I wrote a video player which is capable of watching youtube videos aswell in landscape mode: https://openrepos.net/content/llelectronics/lls-video-player In its current state unfortunately I don't think it will be approved for the harbour.

There is now landscape support in browser which should make things better ;)
software version 1.0.3.8, Naamankajärvi
you guys have this problem that videos on youtube wont fit to the screen in landscape mode?

I think this is connected with the general landscape mode in browser request. Once it is there, the FS playback in browser will be natural.
zlatko ( 2013-12-28 15:54:39 +0200 )editNot necessarily. The video streaming playback can be done in its own window instead of the browser, so it doesn't require the full landscape mode. Plus, even if the browser is in landscape, depending on the page the video may be scaled to less than the screen and you may not have the option to zoom.

redge73 ( 2013-12-30 04:28:41 +0200 )editDo we have a workaround at the moment? Maybe some android youtube app? I tried firefox for android, that did not work for me.
