| Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | ludmilmm | 12/01/22 17:11 | On my PC, I can watch all of the videos from my playlist, however, on my Samsung Smart TV, when I log in my account and try to play one of my playlists, many of the videos don't play. I get a message: "video is not available" and the player switches |

| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | Alex1x | 12/01/26 20:58 | I have the same problem. Cant access "playlist" & "watch later" on my phone youtube app (Samsung Galaxy Epic Touch 4g) AND Google TV (Revue). It says "there was a problem with the network [404].

| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | ludmilmm | 12/01/26 22:03 | Well, I can access my playlist fine. It shows all of the videos. I start playing them but then for most of them I get a message "video is not available". Some of them play just fine. |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | ytDangler | 12/01/27 16:03 | Thanks for the update, ludmilmm. The videos may have syndication restrictions on them. For more information on how syndication can affect viewing on different devices, I'd recommend reading this thread: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/t |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | ludmilmm | 12/01/27 16:53 | Thanks for your reply, however I don't see any "syndication" or "copyright restrictions" whatsoever. Also, I am not trying to play these videos on the mobile device. I am trying to play them on my TV, which has YouTube app on it. I am not sure what y |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | ytDangler | 12/01/27 16:55 | Hi there, Currently device syndication affects TV's as well as mobile devices. Due to content restrictions, some content providers may not be allowed to syndicate a video on mobile or TV, or they may choose to only show their videos on the desktop. I |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | ludmilmm | 12/01/29 5:06 | OK, thank you for your answer. How would I know which videos I can watch on my TV, once it doesn't say anywhere if they are "allowed to syndicate"? I don't want to add them to a playlist, UNLESS I can watch them. Does it make sense? |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | ytDangler | 12/01/30 11:41 | Unfortunately there's really no way to know which videos will be available for mobile/device syndication unless you add the video to a playlist. Thanks,-ytDangler |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | ludmilmm | 12/01/30 16:00 | Thank you! You answered all of my questions. I really appreciate it! Just want to make a statement - I don't see a point in using a youtube app on a "smart tv" whatsoever. One would be better off just hooking a PC to a TV via HDMI cable and playing |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | CONIRL | 12/06/25 14:04 | Hi - I have recently purchased a Samsung Smart Tv and think its great that I can now watch tv quality Youtube videos - on demand tv is the next big thing but sadly both the content providers and the manufacturers are not seizing the day. My kids love |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | BrendanBain | 12/08/23 8:07 | I totally agree with you !!!! I have the same problem. How can Samsung call this a Smart TV when it isn't very smart at all. Does anyone know if an update has been made to the app yet to fix this problem of videos in playlists not playing. I think |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | ditoprod | 12/08/23 9:21 | I guess the Samsung Smart TV is not all that Smart after all. Actually, I have the same problem playing YouTube on mobile devices. It has something to do with the operating system on the device. The device manufacturer says to contact YouTube and You |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | decsamuser | 12/10/04 16:15 | I just invested in a Samsung TV with the SmartTv YouTube app on it, and it was one of the two reasons (along with Skype) for me to shell out much more money than I would have normally done. The Youtube app is totally worthless indeed. 70% of the vid' |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | Bert Boerman | 12/11/01 3:03 | I fully agree that this app is completely useless. I will be getting a Samsung galaxy device, and I really hope that I will not have the same crap with playing content on my tv. HDMI cable is possible, but sounds a bit 2008 to me, I mean, we are livi |

| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | SmilingHoney | 13/01/12 14:48 | It's not a problem with the app itself. It's a problem with Google/YouTube and it's licensing with TV manufacturers. Hopefully, in the future they will get their acts together and not limit each other. |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | SmartTVNOT | 13/02/07 2:29 | Hi All, looks like problem is Adobe Flash Player compatibility with Samsung Smart TVs...and the syndication explanation is rubbish.

| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | Alexei Ababii | 13/02/07 4:07 | So if the problem is in syndication restrictions on mobile or TV, why can I play the same videos on my nexus 7 or in tv browser? |

| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | Keith Bateman | 13/02/17 15:37 | Absolutely - this "Smart" TV is like the web in the early days - slow and very frustrating. My friend has posted a stake of videos on Facebook of HIS OWN GROUP singing for EVERYONE to see (no restrictions, deliberately) - no problem viewing on my PC |

| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | S Scott | 13/02/23 17:39 | Same issue here. It isn't the smart TV's fault. It is google and their "don't be evil" policy going down the toilet. |
| Re: Can't play some of the videos from a playlist on a Samsung Smart TV | Marcel . | 13/03/05 23:09 | Same thing on our Philips Smart TV. Unfortunately you can only play back and not create playlists on the Smart TV app. You need to use the Web browser to create a playlist. And then half of the videos you add don't work when playing them in the app. |
