Now, the question that I wasn't expecting to ask:

Does anyone know a GUI program for *desktop* (linux) that ressembles features of our Maemo's CuteTube, aka downloading things from youtube-alike sites (at least dailymotion and vimeo, apart from youtube), but also search them, browse comments, related videos, etc?

I've tried various things (from standalone programs to firefox extensions), but none of them seems as feature complete as our Maemo's CuteTube. Which creates a quite silly situation that - when watching something interesting on Desktop and wanting to download it, I grab N900 and download it there, instead.

Hints appreciated,
/Estel

keepin' it cutetube real an' all...
alriteythen...
whatever happened to ...
qmltube for linux proper?
wasn't it done?
It would be interesting to get the goods ...
if it was abandoned and why...
I remem. a fedora article talkin' 'bout it.
perhaps it just wasn't maintained with youtubes nat. evol. ...
Just dug this up

"Note that qmltube is open source so feel free to submit patches and improvements. svn checkout http://ytd-meego.googlecode.com/svn/...ground/qmltube ; qtcreator qmltube/qmltube.pro Note that in addition to Harmattan, this port of qmltube runs on MeeGo 1.2 and should run on all Linux platforms with QtSDK 1.1.3 and QtMobility 1.2 installed."
from here..
http://my-meego.com/software/applica...dAuto=35&faq=2

that would be the best answer I can think of (to keep it cutetube tight and all) that springs to immediate mind...

Unless something else crops up in my cerebellum whilst I'm not lookin...that I remem. that is oddly interesting or possibly promising...

Video Download Helper is a Firefox plugin I use for, err, downloading videos It supports YouTube and about two dozen other websites. Not fully-featured like cuteTube but should at least eliminate the crazy "watch on the PC, download on the N900" situation.

Thanks guys, will give gpodder and video download helper a go. I would prefer to steer clear of adware, even if the underlying code is open (still, thanks for the tip!).
