Is there any chance you could add an option to forward a youtube link to the media player? Sometimes I get links via chat and youtube's heavier than cuteTube on the CPU.

Thanks

Wouldn't it be easier to use the youtube-dl/ytstream script for something like that?

/usr/bin/ytstream:
Code:
mplayer -cache 2048 "`youtube-dl -f 18 -g $1`"
chmod +x it, then ytstream youtubelinkhere

By default, the YouTube API only returns 25 results, but this can be increased to a maximum of 50. I'll do this for the next release. I'm not sure why you are not getting the "Latest subscription videos" feed. I'll look into it.

hello every one,

first I should thank marxian for this great application but there is a little problem.

Why cutetube does not return result when the search keywords are in arabic? while mediabox does return result if searching with arabic keyword.

Do I need to do some thing before I run the application.

again thank you for this app.

You can use this command:

Code:
dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mediaplayer /com/nokia/mediaplayer com.nokia.mediaplayer.mime_open string:'$ youtube-dl -f 18 -g YouTubeVideoUrl'

It must be a string encoding issue. I'll look into it.

Can you take a look on this? It would be great if cutetube could convert a downloaded .flv video to mp3.

I would think that conversion chores should be a separate application. And marxian already has plenty of feature requests from us greedy users to keep him busy. Lets not take advantage of his generosity.

Conversion tasks are too CPU intensive for an application such as this. I would imagine that it would seriously impair performance during the conversion process.
