Youtube player for low resource systems
« on: July 04, 2022, 10:57:27 AM »
I have seen a couple of Youtube players that will pull different video resolutions for a video from Youtube so that low resource hardware can play the fastest resolution available that the hardware is capable of playing. The first one I saw was modified for an older version of Antix, and another was used on Puppy Linux. I was wondering if something like this could be used on TinyCore or CorePlus? Here they are:

I guess the one for Puppy Linux above is actually this one on github for several distros:

(make sure to check out the comments at that blogspot as well)

just a quick note regarding youtube-downloader: for around the last year or so it downloads very slowly(previously it would download many many times faster)

always get a chuckle/snicker checking out this list:
