Ytube is giving prolems too huh...Cutetube has been giving me "Error: Unable to Retrieve Video". I thought it was just me.

So is anyone able to play videos right now on either app?

Ytube v1-7 was just uploaded to repository and will be available shortly.

- Quick fix to get video playing but in flash quality at the moment. (still look better than "error, unable to retrieve video" :))
- Video Download and HQ video playback is not possible at the moment due to youtube had made changes and hide their mp4 video url link.

Bad news for N900, seem like youtube had closed the loophole that give us ability to download video in mp4 format. I guess N900 will be stuck with youtube flash video only from now on end.

Thanks for the update, was already getting bored to trying to use the normal Youtube website on my N900. The new version even fixed my problems with portrait video playback.

Its still possible to get mp4 medium. This bookmarklet does it nicely:

Code:

javascript:x=unescape(document.getElementsByTagName('embed')[0].getAttribute('flashvars').replace(/.*url_encoded_fmt_stream_map=([^&]*)&.*/,'$1')).split(/,/).map(function(x){o={};x.split(/&/).forEach(function(x){t=x.split(/=/);o[t[0]]=unescape(t[1])});return o});'<table border=1><tr><td>'+x.map(function(x){return [x.type, x.quality,x.url].join('</td><td>')}).join('</td></tr><tr><td>')+'</td></tr></table>'
also qmltube seems to work fine now too. and my vlc lua script also uses the mp4 stream.

Thanks very much, I tried that before but unsuccessful, I thought the server may have an ua redirection or something, turn out it was the unescape string that gave me problem.

New Ytube v1-8 was just uploaded and changes below:

* Fixed Download and HQ Videos playback.
* Added multiple new functions to Video Player Interface.

Hopefully youtube won't make anymore changes anytime soon.

Thanks to casketizer for giving some hint to restore the mp4 download/playback.
