Version 0.6.2 should be in extras-devel soon. Changelog:

* Added support for MPlayer.
* Homescreen widget can now be locked to prevent accidental video playback (long-press on 'cuteTube' button will lock/unlock the widget).
* Fixed incorrect resizing of loading indicator.
* Updated Italian translation.

Something I didn't mention following the last release is that you can use cuteTube to play a video via the command line, by entering

Code:
/opt/usr/bin/qmltube --play url
where url is the YouTube link to the video. I may add further CLI features in the future.
This is sooooo much better than the python version man!
One small thing about the widget tho... in cutetube's settings i have the playback set to mobile (buffering issues) so video's play fine, when i play vids from the widget they play in high quality and buffer all the time?? About the buffering, i did a test, i played a vid in high quality and it buffered on wifi every 10 or so seconds which i kno isn't to do with my broadband speed, so set playback to "mobile" and download to "high quality" added the same video to downloads and played it at the same time, by the time it finished playing the download was complete? Hows that?? Didn't buffer neither? I can play vids in high on 3g no problem too. Sorry for rambling, these are teeny tiny problems for such an awsome app
