Also if I manually connect to the internet and then start cutetube it signs me in no issue. seems like somehow when it launches and launches the internet connection it is not giving enough time to log in? I don't know the mechanics but that is the behaviour I am experiencing...
I introduced a delay upon startup (of 2000ms) before attempting to sign in to the YouTube account. In my tests, this proved to be sufficient, but it's not scientific and in your case it appears that it isn't long enough. The problem in introducing a longer delay is that the user has to wait until they are signed in before they can access their channel. If a user impatiently clicks the 'My Channel' button upon startup, they will get the 'You are not signed in to YouTube' banner.

The proper solution to your problem would be for me to implement a better communication between DBus and cuteTube, so the application can listen for the signal that the device is connected to the internet before attempting to authenticate. That still leaves the issue of the long waiting time, however.

-enhancement request
automatic loading of more results when you reach end of list

one thing that i started to think is that why maemo/qt seems to not have pull down command buttons. I mean one button that extends and shows more action buttons. Or at least i havent seen that kind of funcionality in any app. Would be great for this app because i do not like too much buttons accesed from top.

I have been considering the automatic loading of more results, and the only possible issue is that it may lead to jerky scrolling, as there will be a delay whilst the application gets more data from the YouTube server.

On the menu extension issue, I'm not sure how that type of menu would behave in Hildon, since I haven't tried it, but the Hildon Style Guide prohibits the use of that type of menu button. The correct way to implement that type of functionality is to raise a dialog when the menu button is pressed.

Just posting to congratulate you marxian. This app rocks and it's hand down a much better option for viewing youtube videos than any other on maemo right now. Thanks for your effort.

The feed gathering is already carried out in a separate thread, the point is that is takes a second or two before the next batch of results is returned, so when you hit the end of the existing results there will be a stutter before new results are added.
