I have a TyTN II, with WM 6.1 installed. It did the same thing with
WM6. Nevermind. Moving on.

Youtube's mobile site loads. I tap a video, then tap the "watch
video" option. HTC's Streaming Media layer loads up, grinds its gears
for a while, and pops up a message that says, "Failed to find
network." This is with an active WiFi connection running.

I've also got Flash player 7 for WM installed, if that makes a
difference.

I have the same problem but slighlty different.
Instead of a wifi connection i use a 3G connection and try to watch a video
off the mobile youtube site and when i tap watch video i get connection
failed or similar.
I have a HTC Touch Cruise with WM6
Does anyone know why i get a server connection failed when i try to watch a
mobile youtube video?

You miss the point.

It is not the connnection speed, 3G [= UMTS] can easily do that.

On a budget connection, it seems that the do not permit streams,
which logically can be achieved if they close certain internet ports,
[like all but port 80 for simple www, port 25 for email, etc.]
If you want a complete connection, you pay 3 times the subscription rate.

I don't know about Telfort, but it seems "my" Vodafone-NL does it that way.

Guys, you will want to follow my articles - I've elaborated on this problem
in several of my articles. In a nutshell: RTSP only works over
non-firewalled connections. Nevertheless, you won't want to use RTSP / 3GP
at all - go for either Flash or H.264.

See my YouTube Bible for more info on my blog.

Is that because of blocked ports or other reason?

If the pocketpc is on your own wifi network, it should work, meseems.

Yup, it should - most (NOT all!) Wi-Fi routers correctly dispatch the RTSP
(UDP) incoming packets. Not so with mobile operators, though. This is why
Streaming Media doesn't work with you. With FLV or H.264, it would.
