I would like to thank you with the new smtube application, I can continue using my ibook. thank you.

I'm happy to hear that it is still usable, haven't been active on PPC lately, mostly on Atari nowadays.
Which version are you using and how ?

Atari ? Dude, that is like 1970's video game system.

So I played around with SMTube 20.1 a bit further and had a look at the support forum.

Basically what happened was that the author was using the Youtube API to populate tonvid.com.
However his Developer key got suspended due to which he had to use a free key which resulted in tonvid having a lower
bandwith to populate the Youtube URLs.

This is what we perceive as the No URL found for this video in SMTube 20.1.

The author decided to pull the plug on populating Tonvid with the usable Youtube URL's and as such has now removed the Youtube API completely from SMTube, it now has to rely on youtube-dl to first download the video which is then played back by your chose videoplayer. (SMTube 20.6).

Long story short, the one-click directly streaming from Youtube application that SMTube once was, no longer is ...

Has anybody tried the new 20.6 version linked above this post ?
(also noticed you will have to add /Users/<yourusername>/bin to your PATH variable)

Hello I have been using these days, smtube 20.1 with mplayer without problems, but recently I stopped opening the videos. then I decided to install the smtube 20.6 and the youtube dl was installed. but in the configuration it asks to start with a player named mpv which only exists for versions 10.8 to higher. and I can't find the 20.6 smplayer for osx 10.5. nor how should the configuration go with youtube. dl.

A good question, I haven't used smtube in a long time anymore.
But I guess choosing which player opens the video should still be in the GUI of smtube ?
Open SMTube, Select Preferences, Under Players can you specify the path to mplayer there ?

Player is selectable, and you can add your own, but YouTube playback is dead with smtube. Use QMPlay2.

player named mpv which only exists for versions 10.8 to higher.

MacPorts had and still has mpv for 10.5 (not the latest version, but it is there).
My PPCPorts have the latest release of mpv working on powerpc.
