Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
Minitube is a native YouTube client. With it you can watch YouTube videos in a new way: you type a keyword, Minitube gives you an endless video stream. Minitube does not require the Flash Player.
Minitube is not about cloning the original Youtube web interface, it aims to create a new TV-like experience.

Could you add the option to open an actual YouTube address?

This release introduces YouTube channels support in Minitube. At first I thought it would be just a minor feature. You just search for a username instead of keyword. No big deal. Boy, I was wrong. While trivial from a technical perspective, being able to watch YouTube channel in Minitube brings a whole new depth to the application. Discovering channels is easy thanks to the autocomplete popup, which suggests the most relevant channels for a given keyword.
Version 1.4 also fixes many playback problems. Some of them are actually caused by slow YouTube streams. Minitube now tries very hard to get a fast stream and discards slower ones.
Linux CLI users will enjoy a small new feature. Minitube now can be launched from the command line specifyng a keyword or YouTube URL.

here are 1.2 packages for maverick, lucid will come soon, hopefully. These packages use gstreamer backend, so if you are upgrading from Lucid’s original package some new packages are pulled in.

Furthermore, I would suggest not to start the video automatically on clicking on the "most ..." tabs. So you could browse the different results before launching a new video.

Maybe people like to change the position of the toolbar and also its size.. (like dolphins toolbar).
The toolbar might be useless in the welcome screen, because it is only deactivated.
anyway, i like the app, and it works really fine.

Can you add a playlist tab to the tablist where I can drop videos to queue and play them?
And can you add a download/save function?
That would be verry nice.

found this greasemonkey script for FF that views the video in m44 using mPlayer or vlc plugins - what's should interesting about this is that it should allow hw acceleration using the gpu (if Nvidia's vdpau is present) something not available with Linux Flash (http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/)
"Youtube without Flash Auto"
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/50771
currently I don't use the script because I use Opera and it doesn't seem to work there
thanks,
