Minitube is a YouTube desktop application.With it you can watch YouTube videos in a new way: you type a keyword, Minitube gives you an endless video stream.Minitube is not about cloning the original YouTube web interface, it aims to create a new TV-like experience.

what is new in minitube 1.7

This release features clickable usernames in the playlist, so you can start watching the video author’s channel with a click.

Another much requested feature is a “Manually start playing” option. It allows you to pick the right video before starting playback and to try other searches without interrupting the current video.

Especially for the Mac, I worked on enhancing the visual style to be more pleasant and feel more native. Now the app doesn’t quit on window close and minimizes on Command+M. The seek bar and volume slider sport a new style and the search box is the rounded, native one.

The “Stop after this video” option can be useful in many situations.Other minor enhancements include a window “Float on Top” option and the ability to skip to the previous video (with keyboard shortcut).
