Clickable video using Youtube native App

Question

I used this code to play youtube video using native youtube app.

startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse("vnd.youtube:zAhzo0JCbFY")).putExtra("force_fullscreen",true));

It works fine. But thing is its a clickable video like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAhzo0JCbFY

Youtube app doesn't allow the links to be clicked. Is there anything to be done(only with native youtube app)?

SORRY

The only thing you can do is to wait for the YouTube app to implement this.

BUT

You can find some alternative, including showing the video in a webview (if you manage), showing the links natively (if you have them), or just using the browser.

In all these cases, it is not the Youtube app.

So I will be waiting for youtube app to implement this. I don't have any links. Actually they are not static links... Videos change dynamically – Seshu Vinay Mar 13 '13 at 03:53

You can do this by using <intent-filter>. I do not now the exact procedure but this explains it well.
