Could i make a suggestion? how about the ability to move certain videos to another folder/directory. Also maybe alphabetical sorting?

Edit: And searching saved videos.

Isn't UPX a really bad idea under jffs?

It should be extracting in memory (at least that's the idea).

True, from the page:

I knew that before using UPX and I decided to test and I was pretty happy with the result, CPU usage is high when starting the app but in a few seconds into the video (which you can't even notice any stuttering at the start of the video), it calms down.

Plus I'm always untarring compressed bz2's from my rootfs onto my rootfs

Arrgh! I thought you downloaded it, it's been on there a few days! I had a cleanout yesterday >.<.

I'll recompile it again in a few days, I'm going to be busy now

The option to download HIGH QUALITY VIDEOS (&fmt=6 in browser or -f6 in youtube-dl) needs to be enabled.

When youtube-dl-x (the default that accompanies mytube) is replaced with the generic youtube-dl (downloaded from the net) and the option -f6 is added to the settings under [preferences]
[more]
[youtube-dl] tab
i.e. (youtube-dl -f6 -o %d --%s) ,

pressing the play button downloads and plays high quality videos if available for that chosen video.

However, the "percent downloaded" counter is missing and playback does not start until the file is fully downloaded.

IS there a way to restore this functionality?

THe option to play a high quality version of a video whenever available would be the best feature.

sudo gainroot
vi /usr/bin/youtube-dl-x

change this line

const_video_url_real_str = 'http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=%s&t=%s&fmt=6' not this line
const_video_url_str = 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=%s&fmt=6'

works with fmt=6, fmt=18 seems to work as well, but it's too much for mplayer to handle

Hmm, this got me looking... using cropdetect would allow letterboxed HQ vides to be played fullscreen. I tried it out with beaker's "ode to joy" and it worked quite well on the HQ vid. It would require a one time post process when the video was downloaded.

nevermind... it's just being cranky because I'm playing with fmt=6 fixed, see previous post.

Thanks ..... works wonderfully!

If only there was a way to set it to download normal quality only if high quality does not exist.... It would be perfect!

Actually, it does!
