maemo.org - Talk - [Announce] cuteTube - A feature-rich YouTube client

Its not that the n900 can't handle it because it can, it just comes down in a different format that isn't supported? I've played films in 720p before on my n900 no problem so yeh... its a little dissapointing but the 420x270 is good enough quality i reckon

YouTube have now increased the resolution of the stream for newer videos. Newer videos will be 640x360 instead of 420x270. :)

is there going to be an offline playlist function for when you download 'part 1 .. of 10' type videos in the new version? currently when i close cutetube and go back in the playback queue is empty which is the only thing i hate about this great app..

How close are you on the new cutetube beta release? I can't wait to test it out.

The UI is completed, and I have also completed code for video uploads:

I'm currently tweaking the download code, which shouldn't take long. The only possible delay is video playback, because the QML video component does not seem to work on the N900. I may need to create my own video component, which will take a bit longer.

The new version has an 'archive' feature which enables you to access all your previous downloads. You will be able to select any videos you like from the archive and play them in the order you select them. :)

Thanks for the the quick update!

Regarding the new youtube video streaming at 640x360, Does that mean we can take advantage of that higher resolution on the current cutetube version? I know 420x270 resolution looks just as great on n900, i was just curious if we can manually increase the resolution by edit config file somewhere or you have to recompile.

Marxian, would it be possible to share how you got the higher resolutions available in your application? When using the api, I can only access low quality streams.

Thanks.

You need to parse the video webpage in order to get the streams. I currently use QNetworkAccessManager to do this (along with all the other HTTP GET/POST requests), but I also have a JavaScript XmlHttpRequest function that I wrote. I switched to QNetworkAccessManager because I could not get the HTTP POST requests to work using XmlHttpRequest.
