Zetakey browser and videos

I use Zetakey on all my CE devices and am very happy with it, everything works fine (including HTML5 content, albeit not very fast). What bothers me, is that any video (youtube etc) I try to view, is somehow reported to be 10 seconds long, and immediately jumps to the very last frame when played.

Is this a known issue?

I can't answer your video question.

But I have a question for you, since you use Zetakey on all your WinCE devices... What WinCE versions are you using this with? (3, 4, 5, etc.)

Thanks,
Dave

Best guess: It would suggest a codec issue; assuming the device is powerful enough to decode the MPEG4 stream

It was pretty slow for me too, but tweaking the config file helped a lot

I tweaked and tweaked and tweaked. The problem with it on the 900C is that it is such a memory hog. I had to slide the memory slider all the way to the left to have enough memory to run the thing and buffer the web pages. And even then it was slow. I mean it is faster than the IE6 that came on this thing, or at least it opens pages that IE6 won't...but still, not a functional app for the Mobilepro 900C.

I got curious and installed Zetakey on my Android tablet...and let me say it is very impressive. Every site I visited opened fine. No lags, no bloatware, plays YouTube in the browser fine...really a nice app.

Rich, not to go off topic but what browser do you usually use on your 900c? I find that Opera Mini works best for me, except that I have to have auto hide on the taskbar as the Opera browser tends to sit on top of it.

SwizzleDude, are you using the latest version?

https://www.zetakey.com/download.php

I've tried the CE 6 and WEC 7 versions, but so far I haven't been able to get any videos to open - even though YouTube redirects to the mobile version.
