Changelog: 
  1. Removed swipe left/right to access categories and moved them into combobox cause at least two people didn't realise you can swipe left/right

New version not working. Cannot find any videos.

Mister_Magister's picture

 You cannot find any videos or you cannot swipe to the right?

elkiaer's picture

When I open the App no video are seen. When I write someting in the search area and press enter northing happens.

It is not possibel to swipe to the right.

Like to add a screendump but are not able to do that :-(

Mister_Magister's picture

Do you see categories and didn't swipe right?

minhvu07's picture

I did that but it still didn't work

Help me solve this problem: “No format video found” when playing any video. I am using on sony XA2

Mister_Magister's picture

Make sure you have latest version and if you have "only avc1" selected try unselecting it

The download function is not working for me. I have installed the youtube-dl but still not working.
Is it me or is there an issue downloading?

Mister_Magister's picture

It's not using youtube-dl so idk how's that supposed to help

It might be just broken

elkiaer's picture

I have version 3.8.9-1 installed.
My download directory is "/home/defaultuser/Videos/".
I have previously been able to download.
So what can be broken?

maiigais's picture

Mister_Magister's picture

Please limit the comments and maybe just use one comment and reply to it but are you using newest .57 version? check in about page

maiigais's picture

Thanks for pointing out about comments, sfos v5.0.0.67 and microtube is v3.8.7

Mister_Magister's picture

yeah i misremembered version

yeah nothing can be done, works here though

maiigais's picture

Hmm, do you know grayjay android app, interestingly how they handle this youtube stuff.

Mister_Magister's picture

everyone handles it the same its all the same there's no difference. Also app seems to be working for everyone else

maiigais's picture

Sad, will wait, hopefully it will.start working again.

Mister_Magister's picture

it is working just fine

maiigais's picture

Unfortunately, that did not work.

maiigais's picture

Ok, thanks again for tip! :))

maiigais's picture

Assuming in home directory?

Mister_Magister's picture

yes

maiigais's picture

Thank you for fast response! Thumbs up!

Mister_Magister's picture

if you know your way around enough, edit .config/microtube/microtube.conf and remove poToken and poTokenTimer then start the app

maiigais's picture

After update it worked well, but after some videos watched same error appeared: "No video formats available."

Mister_Magister's picture

I'll add button to refresh po token :/

The setting says: Only AVC1 (for older devices without vp9). I guess my 10iii isn't an older device. But I could not find any information on vp9, so I wondered whether I was missing some libraries.

Mister_Magister's picture

anything above xa2 has vp9 so avc1 is not needed unless it doesn't work.

rob_k's picture

Maybe. Download fails though. I can't find anything on vp9. Running X10iii, 5.0.0.62, Tampella

Mister_Magister's picture

what do you mean you can't find anything?
