Hey everybody,

yesterday, when I tried zoutube, it was still working.
Today, when I tried to open a video (the search still works), it will give me a black screen.

Similar behavior is found in the digia @scene Youtube app. It will also still display the search, but it will not load the video. However, it will give me an error message saying that the video has been removed.

Does this have anything to do with the layout change on youtube.com itself? (Try this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1hI1BI_Ua8)
Or did Youtube change it's API?
http://apiblog.youtube.com/

Could someone who is sophisticated in that matter investigate please?

Thank you in advance!

Actually, does anyone else have this problem?

Or is it just me?

YouTube has changed the HTML. I had to update the gPodder code to make downloads from YouTube work. The relevant patches are there:

http://gpodder.org/commit/55deea04
http://gpodder.org/commit/cf226f4a

This should help other developers update their code to make it working with the new website.

That explains why my Gpodder Youtube video downloads were no longer working! Thanks

Could somebody contact the maintainers of the packages digia @scene and zoutube? Where do I find the contact information?

@thp: How long does it take for the update to become available? Is it just available in devel?

Normally, you'd have to wait for the next release, but as I'm using the YouTube feature myself, and it's a quick fix, I'm uploading a bugfix to the 2.4 release as we speak with the two fixes cherry-picked from the git repo.

Downloads work again. Though I can't seem to get the videos to play in the default media player. Says codec not supported. Works fine in KMPlayer and MPlayer though.

Thanks for noticing. Unfortunately I am out of the country on holiday until 16th April with limited internet connectivity. But I will try and do the necessary patches to zoutube in any time I have here.
