|
|
|
Youtube Viewer is a dedicated application for searching, viewing, and
|
|
|
|
|
downloading Youtube videos, using wget for downloading and MPlayer for
|
|
|
|
|
viewing. It has been written in Perl and plays videos from Youtube at
|
|
|
|
|
the best quality available without using a flash player.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optional dependencies:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perl-gtk2 and perl-File-ShareDir - for gtk-youtube-viewer.
|
|
|
|
|
perl-Text-CharWidth - for better formatting in the terminal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This build always includes the command-line client (youtube-viewer). For
|
|
|
|
|
the GTK client (gtk-youtube-viewer), install perl-gtk2 and
|
|
|
|
|
perl-File-ShareDir before running this script. If you have them installed
|
|
|
|
|
but don't want gtk-youtube-viewer, you can set GTK=no in the script's
|
|
|
|
|
environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To force gtk-youtube-viewer to use your preferred terminal for downloading
|
|
|
|
|
with wget and watching in a terminal, set TERMINAL in the script's
|
|
|
|
|
environment (e.g. TERMINAL="xterm" or TERMINAL="urxvt").
