Playlists on the left waste a ton of screen estate, especially when empty.
How about moving playlists to the right instead? That would be more comfortable since left-to-right text would read from the extreme left.

Also, an option to force default playback on a certain resolution would be good, not everyone is ok with 720p (much longer buffering would break TV-like browsing experience). Changing the resolution of currently played videos would be another welcome addition.

I know... i just wanted to say that your suggestions were easy to implement... btw how is the new build working for you guys???? haven't got any reports hence why i'm wondering if the Suggestion Feature works now or not. I'm completing the playlist now and hope to have a better build ready for tomorrow.

Been a bit busy these past couple of days, got a new apartment, so I'm in the process of packing, moving my stuff, and looking for some furniture I need.. So I haven't had the chance to test this newest one.

Got one input though, the playlist on the right side is definitely better :)

Oh and, it haven't locked on me yet!

No Problem, take your time as i know how it is to move... i moved to a different City about 6 months ago(300km away from my old place) and i totally understand you :thumb: i will probably release a new Alpha tomorrow with more Features and fixes so you can check it out when you get a Chance ;)

btw, this searches only videos, not channels (without differentiation)?
Lets say someone wants to watch the collection of videos from NMATV or the PCSX2 channel.
Click to expand...
Right now it does not search channels as it works pretty much like the main YouTube Website where you have a searchbox to search Videos. I will make use of the full API later since right now i do everything by myself and do not use any wrappers of the API as you can see on the package... else i will have several dlls included. Since my Goal was to build a very tiny Player i thought that including wrappers or API will add more size. Now that i'm sure the code is working fine i can start adding those fancy things :thumb:

Any more suggestions???? after the Playlist i will add a Settings layer to Setup the Default Quality and other Settings.

Does it have a fullscreen option ?

Also for the final version i might have a suggestion, having the possibility to set the default quality options for two situations, fullscreen and window mode, there are those that like having separate qualities depending on that. Also if you set the default to 1080p but the video doesn't support it does it automatically picks the next higher value (like 720p) ?

I'm linuxin' so I cannot test the weird gui thing. =(
I'll check it in a day or two.

No Problem at all... since the code is highly portable except for some changes required in the UI i'm planning to port it to Linux and OSX. Windows RT/Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 doesn't require many changes and basically is a small re-compile is required.

Right now it doesn't have a Fullscreen Option but of course i'm adding that too. However the whole UI is resizable so you can easily make it fill your Screen. However proper Fullscreen is the way to go. Yes, if you set the Default to 1080p but the Video doesn't Support it then it will pick the next highest available which will be 720p if available for the Video. The case with separate Qualities depending if you're in Windowed or Fullscreen is quite interesting and of course doable... in that case i will have to Keep both links from the different Quality and just Switch between streams which isn't a big deal but obviously require a small work while switching between which is obvious. However it's going to be miles faster than doing it on the web-Player.

on a side note... i'm starting to fall in love with this new Interface i'm creating lol!

Could you add sorting for the search results (after searching maybe)?
Like if people want the results obtained sorted by the most viewed, longest, highest rated.
Click to expand...
Of course! ;) some search results are over 90+ so that will be Handy :thumb:

Why force a certain country's top 100 popularity list? You could just leave the popularity and featured lists unprefixed, this way it would display your country's by default (unless you switch to youtube's korean or wordlwide listings, which is not available now).
Click to expand...
I made that for my wife only and as mentioned i will make it configurable later... getting different countries top 100 doesn't sound easy tho. and if you know some places i would be very thankful if you share them with me.

I tested the alpha 2 and the wierdness is still there. :cry:
Must be a Radeon thing or something then.

I own a radeon GPU so i can install it and test it myself to find out what's wrong... what driver version are you using??? i will try to install the same one and check out what is causing it and fix it.

@ruanTuber Alpha 3 uploaded to the main post and the changes are:

- Fullscreen support(double-click the video in the player) then press ESC, double-click or click the icon to exit the fullscreen mode. Just as in the player... move the mouse to the top or bottom to see the controls.

- Re-designed items style to show more information

- Rating level binding added

- Video views binding added

- Video description binding added

- Video duration binding fixed(got broken in Alpha 2)

- Playlist support(drag and drop a item to your playlist to add them). By pressing the + icon you can add custom playlists. By default the playlist name is editable when added so you can change the name of it. In case you want to rename it at a later time you can click the edit button on each playlist item. When you're done with editing press the edit button once again or just press enter to save the changes. To delete the playlist just select the playlist item and hit the "Delete" key on your Keyboard. To delete a item of a playlist just open the playlist, select the item you want to delete and hit the "Delete" key on your Keyboard. To Change playlist items Position just drag them up or down to your desired Position.

- Fixed some stability bugs when no connection is available

That's all for now and if i get more time this weekend i'm going to add more of the requested features :thumb:


As usual some Pictures to Show you some of the changes:

I dunno if its cause i have the radeon but i do have some visual errors as well:

The second one is about that semi-transparent layer where the controls jump up i think. Anyway while going into fullscreen it seems fine.
(There's also that black shape near the maximize button.)

I love the app but i do have some more suggestions :p. Have the whole app go to fullscreen not just when playing a video, i mean to be able to search and view results in fullscreen as well with the same layout.

Thank you for your Report and Suggestion Strike105X!

Fullscreen for the whole UI is quite easy to do and will add it to the next release... i will check the UI once more as it seems like there are some more flaws appart from the Radeon issue. I will install my Radeon GPU today and check it out in order to fix the Rendering issue.

UPDATE:

Jesus!!! i just installed my Radeon GPU and the Problem is far worse than i expected!!! interestingly enough @ES doesn't have that issue even if it Shares the exact same style but i think i know where the Problem is as there is a small difference between both at Rendering time. The next release should fix the Radeon issue :thumb:
