Screenshots look very promising!

Maybe implement Marina or Reflect as the theme for the QML version? Just create the reference files for the required graphics and let me or someone else fill them out for the actual graphics as AFAIK you can't really copy-paste the Nokia licensed Alpha or Beta theme graphics. It's too bad QML doesn't support system wide look-and-feel, but any theme should be better than the single-color contour buttons. You might need to use a "sliding door" technique for the buttons themselves, or just use make the each size use individual images :)

The purpose of QML is to enable applications to have a distinctive appearance, so it makes sense to not support the OS look and feel. QML doesn't use widgets, the buttons are created by declaring a rectangle with a child mouse area e.g:

Code:

Rectangle {

    property alias icon: icon.source
    property alias iconWidth: icon.width
    property alias iconHeight: icon.height
    signal buttonClicked

    id: button
    width: 150
    height: 50
    radius: 10
    color: mouseArea.pressed ? "#3399bb" : "black"
    border.width: 2
    border.color: "#3399bb"
    Image {
        id: icon
        anchors.centerIn: button
        width: 50
        height: 50
        smooth: true
    }
    MouseArea {
        id: mouseArea
        anchors.fill: button
        onClicked: buttonClicked()
    }
}

The only images I use for push buttons atm is the icon. I did try some gradient images which looked OK, but I'm no graphic designer. I am more than happy to consider any suggestions on this aspect of the application.

Any images that are used in the application are quite easy to change, as they are located in a ui-images folder, so it is my intention to make the application easy to skin. :)

QML looks seems comprehend-able even to me, so I might as well look into the UX when you release the source. Does cuteTube need to be compiled in the Nokia's QT Creator in order to test it?

Not in its current state. It can be tested using QMLViewer, which you can install on the device. In the release version, it should still be possible to run it using QMLViewer, but any features that rely on C++ code will not be accessible.

I wonder if one could program a simple cutetube desktop-widget...

Hi your app is the best. Can you please add the option to see the star ranking of the vids?. Beacause i realy miss that from youtube and now from your app. I just want to see the star ranking before play a video (in the list of searched videos).


Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.

The star ratings are deprecated and will eventually be removed from the XML feeds supplied by the YouTube API, therefore I will be sticking to the like/dislike system. I think the ratings are worthless, anyway. Too many trolls and fanboys.

Brian_7 2011-01-21 14:20

Re: [Announce] cuteTube - A feature-rich YouTube client
 
The like/dislike system of youtube isn't bad. But i can not see in the video list if the videos are good. That would be usefull because a lot of videos are just spam (spam = low rating). That's why i use the 0.9.9-7 version of your excellent app. A temporal opcion is fine for me.

Thanks in advanced.

Re: [Announce] cuteTube - A feature-rich YouTube client
 
Update: I've been tweaking the new UI, and have shifted all menu functions to a permanently visible menu bar to reduce clicks. I've also changed the buttons. The top area will be used for notifications (download status etc).

Re: [Announce] cuteTube - A feature-rich YouTube client
 
Instead the star ranking you could add something like this:

cute = (like * 100%) / (like + dislike)

That would be very usefull :-)

Hi Marxian, Your application is really amazing! .... I love it ... But I am not able to play the videos in portrait mode ... After the keyboard is closed, I am able to get the player in portrait mode but the video is not coming full ....just a small portion of the video is getting played ...Any suggestions?

Here's what i've found out so far... for no reason people are having problems signing in to youtube after linking there google and youtube accounts. i've been trying for weeks and getting quite stressed about it as i've had my account for 5 years with loads of uploads, fav's and messages and so on. luckily i was still signed in on my n900's browser but any other computer, cutetube or other phone app's wouldn't let me in. What you have to do is go into manage account and unlink the google account under manage accounts and bingo! I can sign in on cutetube again and my other android phone. BUT if i try to sign in on a pc it won't let me sign in unless i link the 2 accounts again?? How friggin stupid is that?? So i don't have an answer really but it may at least get some of you using cutetube again propperly. ? And yes... if your not remembered on any computer to manage your account int first place then foook knows what you do?

I am not able to see videos on cutetube. I can search for them, select various, etc, but when I click "play" nothing happebds - I just get a black screen. if I tap oon the screen I'll see the title, play/ pause, etc buttons, but the video itself never loads. any suggestions?

I've tried going on youtube directly and playback work fine there, but his app doesn't for some reason.

Brian_7 2011-02-03 17:54

Re: [Announce] cuteTube - A feature-rich YouTube client
 
Sometimes you have to stop the video and load it again. if you see a fast pic of the video when you load it, it will work.

natedog400 2011-02-03 23:04

Re: [Announce] cuteTube - A feature-rich YouTube client
 
Don't worry about problems with the current version because i'm sure when the rewritten one is avaiable we'll have a bunch of new ones. But thats why we're here! :) Hope its works as well as this one

I don't think that would be possible. AFAIK, the captions, subtitles and other overlaid content can only be displayed when using the Flash or HTML5 players. YouTube does not officially support applications such as cuteTube (for video playback/download), so I have to parse the video webpage to get the video stream. :(
