Hi Rezigrene :
Please do searches before posting.
Both issues have been talked / discussed.

a. Connection is ok, the problem is that youtube has changed it's API we are updating the plugin. Luckly it's a plugin then we don't need to do a full build (would take a lot more time). Last.fm services are really problematic... take a look at their website to see that they are having problems with their services. : http://status.last.fm/

b. We fixed this small issue. you can avoid that by using the screen button instead of the hardware combination.

So this will be filly fixed on beta9.

*the search is to avoid clutteting with repeated posts, and actually to provide you with a faster answer
