Hi all, Minitube 3.6 is out. Apache mysql for mac os. Actually it is 3.6.1 because I fixed a few issues present in 3.6. This release fixes channels not loading.

I switched away from the Invidious API and started using a number of Javascript libraries (actually NodeJS modules) that take care of extracting data from YouTube. They are well maintained and easy to update. Meaning for shift work.

The details of running NodeJS modules in a Qt app are interesting and could be the subject for some future technical posts. For now, I’ll just say that it made for a great hacking sprint.

One of MiniTube's outstanding features is the ability to minimize the playback window, so you can listen to videos while using other apps and functions of your device. On top of that, with MiniTube you can listen to music and view content even if the app is running in the background.
If you want to play Youtube videos, but with a different interface than the platform's official app, MiniTube is a good choice for its simplicity and extra features.
