Skyfire 2.0

Well I hastily installed this and didn't bother to read any of the text after the install...basically just hit next, next, next etc. So I tried it for a while, kinda liked it but then uninstalled it as it didn't seem that much better than Xscope and Dolphin.

So I came here saw this thread, then my jaw dropped. I reinstalled it immediately and now it's my favorite browser! CNN videos f*cking worked! That's sold me on it instantly.

Can't wait for the next version.
 
Also if you long press on a video thumbnail rather than just clicking on it, it seems to work more reliably.

Forgot to add: after getting the menu, choose open :)
 
oh yes,it works,i kinda need to reload the page..but it doesnt show any vid at all,i mean the part that show the video its just blank(not the usual need to install plugin screen thing).. but the the vid option detect the video.. thanks!
 
Fancast.com doesnt work

But many videos from OVGUIDE.com work.

watching lots of tv shows from there and movies in theater's, dvd quality some.

Just have to know where to look.

it's decent. It's not nearly as good as youtube vids through android though.

It's choppier, a little more compressed, etc. But I'm not complaining, this is the first good reason for getting the browser. I don't think I'd use it for anything else.
 
Confirmed footytube.com -- soccer highlights that are often not able to be seen on youtube. I can finally watch footytube on my phone!!! :D :D
 
most sites i look at either wont load the video or will still tell me to update my flash player.

The few that i actually can get to load are unwatchable due to the initial loading screen still being on top of the video. It gets to about 50% and starts to play the video behind the loading bar :(
