I Wrote A YouTube-dl Website For Netscape 4, Classilla, Internet Explorer 5, & TenFourFox That You Can Host On OS X 10.4-10.6 With 0 Server Knowledge

[alex_free]

I wrote a Web Interface for my PowerPC Media Center App specifically for old browsers. Netscape 4, Internet Explorer 5, Classilla, and TenFourFox are 100% supported. The Web Interface will download+convert YouTube videos into media formats QuickTime 6 understands/can stream. There is even an option for downloading a MPEG1 240p video for a 300MHZ G3, which I personally use on my iBook G3 Clamshell.

More information is available on the Macintosh Garden, you do not need any server knowledge at all to run this. Read through the documentation, and install it on your most powerful Mac OS X 10.4-10.6 Mac for the best performance.

First off, this is just awesome. Thanks a lot.

most powerful Mac OS X 10.4 Mac

That would be an original 8-core Mac Pro.

Pretty cool, nice work! I've been thinking about getting an old PPC system to play around with.

Do it! I bought a Mac mini, installed tiger & Mac OS 9, then bought an iBook G3 Clamshell 300MHZ and maxed the ram.

Your very welcome! If you do use this, all I ask is to post some pics and spread the word about it

This looks pretty cool! I find all the tools available to play YouTube on older machines a little clunky, and this one seems to do it a bit better. However, would it be possible to automatically redirect the YouTube links on an older Mac on the network to the appropriate downloader+player+streamer from the web interface? That would be super cool.

I know this may be resurrecting an old thread, but you told me this PPCMC will work to allow me to browse the internet freely on OS 9 right as the host machine will act like a proxy server ?
