Readme file for VidBrowser plugin.
==================================

1.Important:

For best performance, use a HD-Skin(See the 'Tested Firmware' section below).

On first start, press the yellow button 'Settings' and change the settings there:

-User XML file location(plugin restart needed)
"sets the path to the sites.xml file. This is a user defined sites file; It will be installed
by default to /var/etc/VidBrowser/ . To check what sites are supported read the sites.xml file."

-Resume download if possible: [ yes , no ]
"If set to yes, VidBrowser will try to resume aborted downloads depending on their names!"

-Cache: [ yes, no ]
"If you have enough space o your STB(usb, hdd...) so set
this option to 'yes'."

-Cache location:
"This is the path where the downloads go. You can start watching only if the file size is above 1 MB. Maybe
i will change this behaviour to something more reliable in feature."

-Cache files: [ ask for action, do not delete, remove files ]
"How to handle downloaded files."

-Autoplay youtube playlists: [ yes, no ]
"If enabled, VidBrowser will automatically play next video in the playlist."

-Filter youtube search results: i think this one is self explanatory.

-youtube search results per page: [ 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 ]
"How many results to show in one page. Note: more results means slower loading"

-Abort operation after(timeout in secondes) [ 20, 25, 30, 40 ]
"After how many secondes, cancel the search query -youtube only-."

2. Features:

- Youtube.com video and playlist search are fully supported.
- Ability to watch youtube videos in more than one fomat.
- Ability to bookmark youtube videos and playlists.
- Ability to watch all videos in youtube playlist automatically.
- Ability to support user defined sites. Check the sites.xml file.
- Ability to jump directly to a specific video number in youtube playlists.
- Nice download manager with the ability to rename downloaded file.

3. How to:

a) bookmark a youtube video or playlist?
On the video/playlist details page, press the yellow button 'bookmark' so a star will appear.
A yellow star means the video is bookmarked.
A blue(ok not so blue) means the playlist is bookmarked.
No stars visible means video/playlist is not bookmarked.

b) play next/previous video in youtube playlist while watching a video from the same playlist?
When watching a video, press 'blue' button to go to next clip in the playlist or press the
'red' button to go to the previous clip.

c) browse youtube plalist videos?
On the playlist details page you will see current video number and the total videos count.
Press pageup button to get next video details and pagedown to get previous video details.
