Xbox beta released get it now!!!

tried these today they still have kinect style on them so seems they havent gone live what about you?
I don't know what you mean, when i tried to launch Sky; it only let me redownload the app. They have just added two new tiles under TV hub "Live TV","Program list" <- unsure about name of last one. I hope we get new apps later today P:

The Sky app is exactly the same as before. Nothing new, ugly. I am expecting it to be tile based?

Okay, so out of all the apps. Youtube is my overall favorite. I believe it will be the most successful app as Youtube is already expanding continuously and almost everyone has heard of it.

The youtube app lets you do just about everything you can do on your standard computer except for uploading videos

You can link your Youtube account to your Xbox LIVE account for easy signing in.

Youtube home is in metro style.

You can also change the content filtering to strict, moderate or off just in case you know what.

You are able to subscribe or unsubscribe to all channels.

You are also able to report videos for being inappropriate/abuse.

Finally, it features the most important thing of all. "Likes and Dislikes", once clicked it will say 'You have disliked this video','You have liked this video'.
Captions are optional as always or you can add the video to your watch later list.

So what do you think of youtube?
 
Has there been an update to the YouTube app since Sunday morning? I tried it then and had no luck getting it to work. I'll have to try again tonight.

Also i presume you can watch all the stuff from 4od on there too? if so that gives you a lot of UK TV content that can now be watched on the 360, even though i believe apps are on the way for that anyway.

Personally i don't see myself using it that much as i usually watch any long YouTube videos on Xbmc.

There is an issue with the Youtube App.

I was having issues where it would corrupt itself, this is Microsoft's doing. It's doing the exact same thing that Mass Effect 3 is doing.

To fix this problem:

1. Download the app. Once it's finished you need to sign out of your account before Xbox LIVE instructs your Xbox to believe it's corrupt.

2.Launch the application offline and it will bring you to a sign in screen then sign in (:

3. From my experience, after binding my Youtube account with my Xbox and watching a few videos. It gives you permanent access so it won't corrupt itself anymore. (I don't know if it's necessary)

Here is the official youtube tutorial.

you have to delete everything youtube releated power down then power up and redownload if that fails ive found the updated one here Youtube Application For Xbox.rar
I don't see how that helps. I downloaded it yesterday 7pm it wouldn't work so I checked my memory and it said corrupt. I deleted it and redownloaded it, it did the same (after launching it) I then signed out and it seemed to launch fine.
