Youtube app.... actually working?

Don't know if any of u have noticed this or if I'm just super late but I just recently went into the YouTube app and was actually able to stream videos. I'd say out of 10 times the vid streamed 9. Though IM still having difficulty streaming in high quality. Anyone noticing a change?
 
when I first got the hero YouTube app didn't work, but I read on this site how to fix it. cleared the apps cache and I haven't had a problem since.

when I'm on the 3G network only (not on wifi) none of the youtube videos play. I get an unable to play......, but once I get home and am connected to my wireless network I am able to play the same videos with no issues. can't say I'm pleased about that.
 
Stock, and works flawlessly. As a 2.1 user said, "ah..."

There were videos that would not play, but then I deleted the cache for the Youtube app and went back to two of those videos and they played without a problem.

When I was on stock I tried this method. Worked the first time, never worked again. :(

2.1 ftw tho, now. :P
 
This is such a weird problem. I went to a store to check out the Hero and the sales guy let me see his Hero and the youtube app was working fine on it. So, strange that it is affecting some and not others. Is there any kind of pattern to this? Is it the earlier builds that are having this problem or the newer ones? This sucks, I'm looking into getting a Hero but it sounds like it's a 50/50 shot of getting a bad one.
 
I was having issues till I flashed 2.1 on last night and seems to work great. It was hit and miss on the 1.5
 
Running a 2.1 rom and it works for me. However, does anyone know if you can get it to default to high quality?
