Hi. in v1.4 android when entering a custom url such as this http://www.youtube.com/user/xxxxxxxxx the title bar disappears along with the back button so the user can't leave the screen...i believe this url turns into a mobile version automatically....but i think it is any time a youtube link is put into custom url...works fine on v1.4 iphone tho...hmmmm?

This is only testing in simulator, i don't have android device...just a simulator glitch?

It's always worked fine for me (just tested a couple of my apps and all is OK.) If it's a youtube link it's probably opening it up in the YT app rather than a browser window (which is the preferred Android method). To return you just press back on the phone keypad.

ok, so maybe it will be fine on devices...i only have the android simulator to work on...in the simulator when i click on video to play it says webpage not found...hopefully still just buggy simulator..so will users have to hit back button bunch of times to get back to app?...thanks! lots of good info in this thread too http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=942E221A940164D&status=&searchInput=search&sortColumn=FT.id&sortUpDown=DESC¤tPage=3&doViews=1

actually yes, I have just found that too, the view used to be embedded in the app & now the call is going outside the app no changes made on this end, may be a buzztouch thing, probably easy enough to change back in the source code via eclipse though

@steveh6883 are you testing on actual android devices? Is it working well enough to put on the ,market? Need to get an android test device at some point...maybe David will chime in...thanks!

@ianjamespiano - yes that's on live apps already on the marketplace testing on Samsung galaxy s

So its functioning but just not user friendly...are you getting webpage not found when clicking n YouTube video links? Appreciate your time!

Nope YouTube vids working fine

Great thanks for lookin out!! Cheers!!

The back-button in the title bar really shouldn't be there ever on Android. This original design idea was incorrect (on our part), the hardware back button should be used on Android and not a provided arrow or button. With that said, the behavior here is OK because the device is opening the URL in the native YouTube player. This player of course has not back button because again, it shouldn't. Android v1.5 does not use a back button in the nav bar - this is how v1.4 should have been all along.

Thanks for clarifying David, hard to tell in the android sim what's going on sometimes...gonna Snag an android device when v1.5 comes out so I can really have some fun....thanks and cheers!!
