Youtubeplay v1.0.0.7


Description:
YouTube Player is YouTube search/player application which featuring full FLV. Bit like the latest CorePlayer.

It allows you to search for videos in a nice friendly Windows Mobile app and then plays the full FLV video (not miniscule MPEG4 versions) with its own player.

The app is written in a mixture of .net and C so you need the .net runtime, v2.

The video player overlay is hacked out of TCPMP and the FLV part is based on FFMPEG.

Things planned:
Support for YouTube logons, video uploads, user favorites and better caching/buffering.

Things not planned:
Other video sites.

Known issues:
- Square mode not quite right.
- Other character sets (Chinese etc.) don't work apparently.
- Close button sometimes takes a few pushes.

Everybody should note that this application will eat bandwidth, no consideration has been made for data consumed, so Wifi/ActiveSync or unlimited 3g only, be prepared for a big data bill otherwise. Won't work well on GPRS anyway as FLV vids are quite sizeable.
