Minitube is a native YouTube client. With it you can watch YouTube videos in a new way: you type a keyword, Minitube gives you an endless video stream. Minitube does not require the Flash Player.

Minitube is not about cloning the original YouTube web interface, it strives to create a new TV-like experience.

You need to download .deb package from getdeb

    hi,
    I am getting:
    Phonon error: “A required codec is missing. You need to install the following codec(s) to play this content: text/html” 2

    when I am trying to run minitube.
    Any help.

    i have one question: why?

    totem can do this (see the default plugins and activate the youtube one) and comes as gnome’s default video player

  7. shankhs says:

    @anon because a lot of us remove totem (IT SUCKS!!!) .
    minitube is lightweight simple to use.
