not sure if this is possible or if you have already thought of it. When using youtube or any other website with embedded youtube video, instead of trying to play in the browser (n900) or opening the video in the flash player (N9/50) can it open the video in cutetube? therefor allowing you more control over the video. Or on n9/50 can you choose what to do when you longpress or press on the video in the web browser, eg having the option in the context menu.

Keep up the nice work.
I have thought of this, but I'm not sure how easy it would be to achieve. I imagine it will require some dbus hackery. I doubt there will be any easy way of enabling a user to choose a third-party application to launch a file. Even now, Symbian users still have problems using Opera as their default browser for all activities.
