So I just found out you can get YouTube to play on your TV through PS3 without having to pair anything. All the articles and videos I found talked about pairing your mobile device to the PS3 for this to work. That’s no longer necessary.

Funny thing is if I send a video from my iPhone to play on TV over wifi, the playback history gets sync’d to all other devices connected to the same wifi regardless of YouTube account. In other words, this is YouTube party mode.

Anyone can send and queue YouTube videos from any mobile device to the PS3 without needing to pair or use the same YouTube account. Just need the YouTube app installed and have everyone on the same wifi.

You can really mess up someone’s viewing history this way. This probably would also work directly with a TV that has wifi and YouTube app installed. – View on Path.
