I installed MyTube but when trying to play a video all I get is a small square, about an inch wide showing a very garbled video in purple/green.

I can see that the homepage lists some dependencies but none of those links seems to work. I know I got mplayer.

Will I manually have to jot down these apps and go and track them down one by one?

I tried to download Python 2.5 but got an error about application package missing. Sigh.

I use MediaBox Media Center for YouTube - since the Canola plugin stopped working. Rather prefer MediaBox overall now.

Install the latest mplayer, i think it is .29 and use the command dpkg .... to automatically dl dependency files. This command structure works for any apps that require dependence provided the repositories are enabled/internet is up/root things like that. Have to turn off app manager when running.

Just saw this thread as I am searching for a solution for a MyTube problem. Maybe I should post a new thread?

Anyways, when I try to open any of the selections I get a "connection reset by peer" error. At first I thought it had to do with my altered hosts file (for ad blocking) but restoring the original hosts file did not fix this, and no other web connected app seems to be affected. I also tried uninstalling and re-installing. Has anyone seen this issue?

I could never get MyTube to download properly through my bluetooth-connected Alltel sellphone on EVDO. It simply wouldn't connect to the server that way. Worked fine on wifi.

Then, the geniuses uploaded @scene to maemo, which is simply a much better app. @scene never fails to download through my sellphone or wifi links.

Dump MyTube and install @Scene and I bet your problems all go away.....

I haven't had a problem with MyTube until today. I especially liked the full-screen playback. Does @scene also do full-screen playback?

Stefan W (zaph) was thinking the same way I was.

"I would like to see the videos fullscreen and without the borders left and right. As a quick fix (for me) I have changed
the fullscreen parameters -fs (in ystreamer.py) to -vf crop=320:192."

::: is there a easy way I could do this?
