Video Totally broken?

[Rich123321]

Hey guys. I just realized that i cannot play any movies or youtube videos. When I start youtube i click a video then it loads like normal then it says"This movie cannot be played"Should I restore it then re jailbreak it or is there a fix?

Will it play videos synced to the phone through iTunes? Have you tried a lot of Youtube links or just a couple? Some Youtube content doesn't play on the iPhone at all, but it's a problem with how the file is encoded on Youtube, not any fault of the iPhone.

I went to youtube.com and it played a video fine. Let me check the same video. Wait 1 minute

Ok i played the evolution of dance by going into safari then youtube.com and it worked. I then went to the native youtube app and it didnt. Also the movies i downloaded were .mp4 format but is said the file type is not supported. Could it be a cydia Repo or app?

Edit- I just played a video that used to work but now it doesnt. I also tested a different video and its working so i am not sure why it isnt working sometimes

I get that error sometimes as well and have heard that it's common. I just move on to the next video when it does it or watch it on my computer.
