Does N900 still needs mYTube?
 

Hello everyone,

I've been away from my project and ITT for a while now.
I'm not up to date with the UI the new OS brings in the
social site area (especialy YouTube).

Îs there a integrated application for browsing/downloading
for YouTube ? Is there still need for mYTube?
I'd love resuming work on the project.

Waiting for your thoughts,
-Mihai

The browser has builtin flash that works really well, no frame dropping, but only it the lowest quality. Someone has already built a dedicatef YouTube app for Fremantle called ZouTube. I'd still love to see mYTube on Fremantle expecially since it uses MPlayer backend instead of gstreamer.

It doesn't need it in terms of "you can't watch the videos without it".

OTOH, I find such applications nice because they remove the unwanted overhead you get when loading youtube-pages in the browser.

ZouTube's what I use right now, but I remember mytube had a very different UI concept and gave details (on request) I don't have in zoutube right now.

I would appreciate having both fight for the best implementation. ;)

Please i would love mytube......

It is the best application for watching youtube without all the hassle.

Can you get it to download the hi def version of the videos if possible?

Thanks

It still needs an app to view HQ videos and none so far seem to let you login and view your subscriptions like I can on my iPod.

Also YouTube in the browser kills the battery due to no hardware acceleration.

So it certainly needs something, not sure if your app fixes any of the above.

that should work as it is now, append -b to youtube-dl command

Yes, definately... Zoutube does not have a search capability. Yours does an the program was well put together.

alright, it was about time to put to a good use that old laptop with a new scratchbox.
fingers crossed, i hope compatibility was not affected too much.
