My video player allows for playing back local files (via a built-in file-browser) and remote files (from sites like youtube or rtp or mms streams) 

 

It is based upon the gstreamer engine shipped with Sailfish OS and only supports codecs that are supported by that gstreamer layer.

Current features include:

  • Cover with pause and play function
  • Open local files with file browser (except version 0.6) & video file picker (since version 0.6)
  • Open remote files via url (detects youtube urls and is able to play them)
  • Open URL Page with history of the 10 last played urls (local or remote)
  • Youtube Search Page integrated
  • Timeline with ability to hide/unhide and scroll through media file
  • Show media metadata
  • Registers mimetypes for audio and video files in Sailfish OS automatically (for opening up with xdg-open or via jolla-fileman and others)
  • Can be used from terminal (e.g. harbour-videoPlayer /path/to/local/file) 
  • Subtitle support for *.srt files 
  • Get artist information over Wikipedia
  • Get more videos from same artist on Youtube
  • History support
  • Integrated youtube-dl support  (see supported sites: https://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/supportedsites.html)
  • TOHKBD shortcuts support
  • Playlist support (Creating, Opening, Saving PLS files)
  • Download Youtube Videos and Audios in different formats

I clicked "720p" to see what it does, and I get this:

/usr/bin/env: python: No such file or folder.

I assume using python, or python3, binary is the goal there, and I solved it by just using 

/usr/bin/python3

directly. Assuming the application depends on Python3.
Edit: There doesn't seem to be python binary installed, only python3...

Youtube-dl needs python2 to be installed. This provides the python binary. I had it as dependency earlier but people complained so I removed it from the dependency list of the player as it is only necessary for youtube-dl.

If this app is still maintained, would it be possible to add a feature where we can change the download path so videos can be stored on external memory card rather than device memory? Failing that, is it possible to change the path in a config file within the app?
Thanks. :)

This is currently not possible. Also not with changing a configuration file. You need to edit the source code for this.

It is an interesting feature though implementing needs a lot of fallback code (what happens if the path isn't accessible anymore as the microsd card or external card or folder in general vanished).

So it isn't a one liner of code that needs to be changed.

Very nice app! One issue though:
Videos I recorded with my Nokia 108 DS (Microsoft Mobile RM-944) doesn't play correctly, there are some coloured stripes in the picture. Same issue when playing those videos with native Gallery app. VLC plays them correctly, so I assume it has something to do with GStreamer or could it be LLs Video Player causing the issue?
Video preview pictures look fine though.

You need to find out what gstreamer plugin is the cause. Maybe its a particular hardware codec or implementation causing it. Otherwise feel free to file a bug in together.jolla.com if you think Jolla should take care of it. Personally it is working fine with gstreamer 1.10.4 on my desktop. So I think it is a codec issue for particular devices.

I'm trying to play an YouTube video on my Xperia X and I get "Your GStreamer installation is missing a plugin".
Shouldn't it be able to play it with existing plugins? (I have just performed a factory reset and upgraded to 2.2.0.29)
Edit: I was trying to play https://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=FRjOSmc01-M and it failed but other videos work fine. Pfew! :D
Thank you for your great app!

That video is linked wrongly. But even if I copy that link it takes me to the youtube main page.

So I guess either the video is not available or it is geo blocked or something like this.

For some videos you need to be logged in to be able to play them back. Other videos use DRM.

See the pulley menu Load with ytdl which uses youtube-dl to grab the stream and usually also plays DRM files fine.

You mean for youtube?

Yeah I will take a look into it. It is not as easy as apparently that does use a slightly different approach I use currently with the API to grab the streams. But in any case I could make youtube-dl try loading the 1080p. Though then you wouldn't be able to set it as the default quality option.

I am not entirely sure what you mean.

If you want to open rtp streams it should go with open Enter Url page.
