i've had a different bug last time i ran it, it froze and i got a system pop saying something like zoutube failed to close and is not responding, i was unable to close it.
is there a way we can get more videos from search results
Hi, just downloaded zoutube this evening, got my N900 yesterday. I notice that most apps pre-installed and what I have downloaded from extras ignore the phone profile setting; so if I have it set to Silent for my phone, I can still get audio from apps I am running. With zoutube, audio is only played if I set the profile to General; placing it on Silent disables audio in the app again. This can be done on the fly even while the video is playing.
This maybe by design, but I'm only posting as I notice this differ from the other applications I've used so far. Regardless, this is a very handy app!

So the real question is, what would people want the behaviour to be? To be silent if the silent profile is set or to actually ourtput audio then?

I noticed this issue too and it took me quite a while to figure out how to get the audio to work.
In a media player, sound should definitely play regardless of the profile used. I believe that this is what people would expect and it's the way every mobile media player I've used so far worked (including the N900's built-in one). The silent profile is here to prevent unexpected audio (ringtones, alerts) from playing - not to prevent audio that the user explicitly wants to play from playing (and when you watch a video, you expect it to have sound these days).
Well done by the way for this app. Really looking forward to the BBC iPlayer support.
but seriously, somrtimes I like to download videos to host and serve on the site, especially those that could be removed. Our readers do have better screens, and the lower YouTube vids aren't always ideal. It'd really be useful to not have to go to my desktop for that. I don't touch a desktop if possible, and haven't since 2007 except in the studio. Lets leverage the OS and reach for desktop performance. Guys like me are few, but I think that will change globally in the BRIC markets come Maemo6. Why not get a head start?
