Hi,

I use Backgrounder with Pandora and it works fine, but today I tried to use it with YouTube and it doesn't work.

Is this a known issue? Is Backgrounder suppose to work with YouTube?

Thank you,

It pauses any video I try to background, YouTube or otherwise. There are some things that backgrounder can't fix. You can't background the camera while recording I don't believe. I'm sure there are other things too.
 
Oh ok, so it seems to be something with video then; that stinks!!

Thank you,

If you want at least the audio to play while Backgrounder is enabled on YouTube, you can use the home button double-tap controls to play the audio from the YouTube video. When you go back to the video it takes a little time for my iPod touch to catch up with video but it doesn't pause or anything.

anyone know if you can get this to work on a 3GS?
 
Ok

Just tried it on my 3gs works fine but I also run mquickdo which could be a factor. Really not getting why backgrounding YouTube is a big deal.
