Marxian,

Newbiew pls help.

Cutetube python works for me.

Cutetube qml has the following problem.

I cannot change my settings. I go to the settings and chose all the options, and then save. But when i go back from that screen and come back again, all the settings are still blank. Same way I cant setup my accounts.

I tried deleting the conf file, but that does not help.

Please assist

Regards,

RNair

Hi,
I have version 0.7.4 and have the following problems:

a) How do I access the download now? It used to be on the upper right now it's gone.(never mind. Figured it out. Had to go back a few pages. I don't know of any other app that has the same interaction. Maybe put the download icon on the bottom bar.)
b) When you enter the search pull down, there is no way to exit out without searching. I think proper interaction is if you click outside the pull down it should cancel the search
c) For the saved searches, can it be changed so that it pops up in the search in put instead of searching automatically? I'd like to make small changes to the search criteria. The same search queries in put into Youtube (web page) yields different results than when I use Cutetube. That's fine, I just need to change my search criteria to be more precise. It would be nice if I didn't have to enter it in multiple times. Thanks.

b) You can dismiss the search bar by clicking on the search button again. However, I have now implemented your suggestion for the next release.

c) I prefer the behaviour as it is. The query passed to the API is as follows:

Example search: 'nokia n900'

'nokia n900' or 'nokia' and 'n900'

I'm not sure if the API discards common words such as 'of' or 'and' etc.

Setting the search order to 'relevance' should give you the same (or very similar) results to those obtained using the website. Ordering results any other way is bound to be result in false positives because idiots use tag spamming to get extra hits. Same problem everywhere on the web these days ... :/

The problem of false positives could be alleviated by having a stricter search criteria, i.e. only search for 'nokia n900'. This is likely to result in relevant results not being returned in some cases. A certain degree of fuzziness is required to ensure that as many relevant results as possible are returned.

I see. Great. Thanks.

I have not problems with the query passed per se. I am happy to adjust my criteria to get the results I want, its just sometimes it takes me a while so have to re-type it in multiple times which is annoying. It's not a problem just the having to type it in part which I'd like to reduce. It's fine if you like it the way it is, your call.

MIght I suggest then that the pull down remembers the last query and you add an "x" on the far right so that you can clear the query.

Try searching for "ninos de la calle y ollanta humala". First result in Youtube and doesn't even come up in cutetube. Not sure why.

It's a secret, it certainly won't have already been mentioned in this thread, and there isn't a "search this thread" box at the top and bottom of this page so you won't be able to search for xtube within this thread.

Using xtube search is secret. But I can search it, I find it in google.
BTW, I just upgrade xtube & cuteTube-QML. It can download xtube film, It's magical. cuteTube-QML is my favorite app in N900. Good!!!!!!
