Tubemote: Turn a browser into a YouTube remote
- woodall 16y agoThis is pretty neat. I've been playing with "Leanback" as a means to show segmented videos one after another- I am addicted to SC2 screen cast sigh. Another method I have found, but do not like very much, is javascript. The YouTube player API gives back status codes when a video is Playing, Paused, Ended. After the Ended status is given I use js to place the new video in a div.
- startup_spouse 16y agoThanks, we think it's pretty neat too :) Hope we're not enabling your addiction though! Ok, maybe just a little bit ;)
- tommynazareth 16y agoI've been thinking about how to make a similar service for watching TV at home. It'd be great if they offered more than just YouTube, but YouTube is the obvious place to start. My plan was to make a web interface to some Selenium scripts and then run the web app on my home network and connect to it from my phone. After seeing this, my way of doing it may have been way too complicated. I could just have an app that generates a redirect to the page I want to visit, whether it is YouTube, or Last.fm, etc.
- startup_spouse 16y agoIndeed, YouTube is just a start... we're working on other stuff ;)
