Wow!!! This a great application program. I just have one question as far as using the mplayer. How do you create playlists? & How do you play them randomly on the N800? I'm a newbie to mplayer. I did a search looking for clues on this site and found an interesting thread but I could not get it to work. Could someone please help me step by step? I would love to play videos randomly using mplayer? Thanks.
New version coming tomorrow will also include a cropped mode (to get 16:9 movies with black borders to play really in full screen) and faster downloads. Also, it will include a delete-after playback mode which my wife suggested.
Just out of curiousity, I'm not a youtube watcher myself and I know its proof of concept and all.
But wouldn't it be nice to build a little aggregator to parse the rss feeds you can get from youtube and have the links within the feeds pass the url onto UKTube ?
I think I'm right in thinking that the feeds from youtube contain the links you paste into UKTube.
@ukki: can't make python applets yet, so nope.
@djasmith: rss aggregator may be on its way at some point, just not yet.
@bnk: Beats me. I'm not too familiar with mplayer. Maybe you can make a pls file of the items and open that in mplayer.
If you have trouble installing the app, download the deb first to your device and install from the deb. garage.maemo.org is behaving weirdly and at least some people have had to download the deb before installing it.
Youtube is in the process of changing all of their clips to a new format, which the Apple iPhone is using. Will this have any impact on N800 use ability good or bad?
