Description from extension meta

This extension runs youtube videos in chromium through omxplayer allowing a much smoother viewing

Image from store RPi-youtube
Description from store This is a small script written to include a quick button to play any youtube video locally in omxplayer, allowing much smoother playback! It uses youtube-dl and displays a prompt each time a youtube video is opened. Pressing OK will show the video locally in less than 10 seconds. You must have Chromium installed (https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=121195) and the host script installed (https://github.com/kusti8/RPi-chromium). Any questions or issues should be reported on the Github page, and I'm always open to new ideas!

  • (2016-05-01) Benedict Simmons: It works perfect! Thank you!
  • (2016-04-24) Dave Land: It does what it says it does. If you're very patient. I tried using it on a brand new Raspberry Pi 3 with a fresh install of Raspbian Jessie. If that's your set-up, and what you want to do is watch gorgeous smooth-playing YouTube videos about 10-15 minutes from now, then this is for you. I don't think the fault is with the add-on, though: it's just how long it takes to download a full video from YouTube.
