Update: Small bugfix release 1.9.1

This fixes the annoying youtube stream urls sometimes wrong or sometimes grabbing webm/vp8 streams which aren't supported currently (it got fixed upstream and should arrive with a new SFOS Update).

I think I finally figured out the get_video format youtube provides which is a hell looking at it at first.
Sadly no improvement in ciphered video support like vevo or other videos. Those need deciphering stuff which is hidden and might be different for every video inside the html and js scripts included of the actual video itself.
Use youtube-dl (called ytdl) for those videos.

Changes:

• Speed improvements
• Added Opus mimetype support to desktop file
• Fixed getting Youtube Video Streams (correctly fetch 720p, 360p, 240p streams if not using cipher [like vevo and others])

Update: Another small bugfix release 1.9.2

Someone mentioned playlist support was somehow broken loading next track when one track is played but not playing it back.
I fixed this annoying bug (which btw. did not happen if you press on next manually). Controls hide automatically also on next track.
I also added the option to add single media files to the current playlist from within the file managers (simple and advanced).
Both also gained the option to show the current playlist in a pull up menu.
Local media is now autoplayed as this seems a good default setting, because what else do you want to do when clicking a local media.
Finally I fixed save time code for playback for local media. It only worked for media with the "file://" path. It should now work with files with "/" paths aswell.

Changes:

• Fixed save time code for playback for local media
• Fixed playlist not playing next track after current track ended
• Activate autoplay by default for local media
• Added "Add to playlist" option in Filemanagers
• Added "Open playlist" in pullup menu of Filemanagers
• Added "Scroll to top" in pullup menu of simple filemanager
• Fixed bgdelegate width bug
• Hide controls by default on next() or prev()

As usual you can get the rpm from openrepos.net

Update: Version 1.9.3 ist out now.

Only a small bugfix version using a better device pixel ratio hack which supports QtWebkit 5.212 and fixing the permission problem on youtube-dl which prevent it from executing as the binary might not be set to executable.
Also updated youtube-dl.

As usual you can find the rpms on openrepos.net

Update: Version 1.9.4 out now. (Kölle Alaaf Karneval Edition, Drunk Coding is the best)

This version features some bugfixes but also a cool new features for those of you who like to only download audio parts from youtube videos. The Youtube Quality Chooser now will also use youtube-dl to grab the streams for vorbis and opus streams of youtube videos and allow you to play or download those.

Fixes include Playlist clear function which really clears stuff now (not only visually) aswell as autplay set to false even after played back some local media stuff.
Youtube-DL binary is now again updateable (last fix made it read and executable only butn updater failed silently as it could not write to the file)

• Fixed autoplay set to true after local media played back
• Fixed allowing updating youtube-dl binary (set also write permissions)
• Show Youtube Audio Stream URLs for Vorbis and Opus in YtQualityChooser (uses Youtube-DL)
• Don't load if url empty in YtQualityChooser
• Fixed PlaylistPage clear playlist really and not only visually
• Fixed truncate fade for too long download labels in current operation
• Fixed "Failed to load rtps" (Closes #16)
• Updated youtube-dl to 2017.11.06

Update: Version 1.9.5 out now.

This version brings the long awaited bugfix for Xperia X users making videos playing back smooth again.
Besides that some new features made its way into this release.
Like the support for SSA subtitles thanks to a commit from pstopkin.
A history for Youtube Search Terms was added. So you won't miss the last 15 youtube search terms.
The navbar for the webview now gained the ability to directly jump to the search field (scroll to the top and force focus on the searchField).
And last but not least I added an option like requested to remove cookies, cache and history on closing down the app. This can be turned on in the settings.

As always you can find the RPMs for armv7hl and i486 on openrepos.net

Changes:

• Fixed very slow playback on Xperia X by making onlyMusic invisible

Update: Version 1.9.6 is out now.

In this version I concentrated on fixing some bugs and improving the file operations of the integrared file managers copy and move.
Those operations are now performed in the background and don't block the UI. Instead it shows a nice spinner on top whenever it is copying or moving and also shows a message when copying/moving finished.
Don't close the app during copying as it will destroy the copy process in the background and you are left with a half copied file.

Most noticable bugfix is in OpenURL page that now uses youtube-dl again for non youtube and non rtsp urls. So you can extract videos from Mediatheken or other supported youtube-dl sites.

You can find the rpms on openrepos.net

Changes:

• Fixed ytdl not loading entered url in OpenUrlPage
• Prevent worker thread of FolderListModel from starting immediately
• de-duplicate some expensive calls in FolderListModel
• *.* is apparently not the same filter as * (Fixed OpenDialog/Simple FileManager)
• Make file copy/move operations in background thread
• Updated youtube-dl

Update: Version 1.9.7 is out now.

This is a pretty big release even though of the small bump in the version number only.

Besides that some refinement in the app in terms of visual appeal. The icon for youtube and file browsing have been revamped.
