Best YouTube app?
 
A lot of people have suggested using mYTube but I can't seem to get it to work. Is there a better solution that doesn't involve using a browser?

Thanks!

ZouTube and MediaBox and gPodder all can do YouTube.

MediaBox can do. As long as the video format is compatible with the N900 (720p or 1080p are of course not).

the only quality N900 can play is medium which is not 360p,480p,720 and 1080...video will shutter in these quality if play in N900.

These formats can be played on the N900: 5, 6, 13, 17, 18

In detail (roughly sorted by quality):

13, 3gp, Type 13 - 3GP/AMR - Mobile
17, 3gp, Type 17 - 3GP/AAC - Mobile
5, flv, Type 5 - H.263/MP3 - Standard
18, mp4, Type 18 - H.264/AAC - Medium
6, flv, Type 6 - H.263/MP3 - High

I couldn't watch full length Youtube movies in Mediabox. Has anyone done it successfully?

18 which is the the top quality N900 can handle

Minitube gives the best quality for me. I don't know wich youtube quality it is, but it gives 360p. Because the screen resolution of the N900 is 840x480, why isn't it possible to watch 480p videos?

I like using the wikitunes mediaplayer, it streams music while provides lyrics too.

N900 doesn't support H.264 Main profile that 480p format uses, it only supports the baseline profile

I was not aware that gPodder can do You Tube. Do you mean subscribing to a channel or watching it within gPodder?
