If I close and reopen the application, only that first search term ("Mario" in this case) will work correctly.

I can confirm this bug as well. In my case the search results are listed but i get a blank info screen for all the videos. In addition the youtube user for all videos is shown as 'undefined'.

I dont have a youtube account and thus donot login into youtube via cutetube.

I can reproduce that one. I'll take a look and fix it tomorrow.

Marxian! What happens to the cover flow feature?... and is there any way that the white bold frame around the video thumnail be reduced to a thinner gray frame...It'll look much better IMO. something like image below

Yep. That's it then. I tried long press all the first times, then it worked when I tried from info screen.

I miss 1 feature from the old cutetube:
when you search for something, and you made a typo, you need to enter the whole text again instead of just picking the old search and change the typo.

k, played some more with this awesome app and have some suggestions:

1) Search and download buttons are a bit small, why not place them at the bottom in line with menu and exit/back or simply somewhat bigger?
2) When starting a search it says "No Videos found" before search indicator appears, somewhat irritating, but no biggy (same applies to "related" in video info screen)
3) While I like usage of media player and its performance I would prefer video playback from within cuteTube windows itself
4) Guess the occasional crashes will be fixed with future versions ;-)

Please keep going with your great work :-)

The only other downside would be that the UI does not resize that well, so it would not look good if used in full-screen on the desktop.

Do you plan to use QtMobility-Multimedia in the future?

I've not seen your new code yet, but it might be possible to detect at run time whether cutetube is running on a mobile platform and go fullscreen if it is. On all non-mobile platforms, just go with a "reasonable" height/width.

Coverflow performance was not acceptable on the device without OpenGL acceleration, and using OpenGL resulted in a flattening of the items in the view. I guess there is a bug somewhere in QML. I decided to discard the coverflow view for now. I may go back to it at some point.

I like your idea of the slimmer grey frame. I'll experiment tomorrow.
