VLC with no gui is only about 2.5mb, and can play youtube stuff, if it's compiled with lua support (lua doesnt need to be installed once its compiled as far as i can tell..) ... and old VLC, like 0.8.6, compiled with lua and without qt gui might be a solution too... (and there's vlc-gtk as a frontend for it too)...

Anyone know how that'll perform on a P2 300MHz with 128mb RAM and 384mb swap?

I could not get VLC running, nor gnash and although flasm decompress the swf ffplay/mplayer wont play...
Some scripts out there for mplayer but that seems to be based on youtube serving flv-format in the past.
I followed technosaurus idea here and got a working draft based on ffplay and a gtkdialog1 script. Video is working (some gives "Protocol not supported" though...) but I cant get sound out of the thing. Guess its a ffplay compile thing - maybe.
I do not use youtube enough to spend days fine tunning the thing so just drop the draft here for better minds or times...
Code: | #!/bin/ash
#pmtube-0.1.
#demo script for gtkdialog1 sort of poor mans youtube viewer.
#June2013 goingnuts
#draft!
[[ -x ../../src/gtkdialog1 ]] && PATH=../../src:$PATH
rm -f tablelist test.html test2.html
#ash function file

get_me () {
rm -f test.html
if [ ! "${ENTRY}" = "" ]; then
#need formating the query
query=$(echo "${ENTRY}" | sed "s/ /+/g")
busybox wget -O test.html -U firefox "http://m.youtube.com/results?gl=US&client=mv-google&hl=en&q="${query}"&submit=Search"
else

#construct list of findings

Re: "Protocol not supported": try youtube-dl, make sure you have librtmp/rtmpdump compiled with an SSL library...
Re: no sound:
strace ffplay <somefile.wav> 2>&1 >/dev/null |grep /dev
If it plays, try with an mp3/mp4 file you know has audio.
Note the order of redirection in the example above! Reverse it, and it's silent. But this way, stdout is silenced and stderr becomes stdout.

Ibidem: thx...
I did look at "youtube-dl" but seems to be python-based and I could not get it running in P412.
My ffplay plays wav & mp3 files ok from disk...
Output of the suggested command:
Code: | strace ./ffplay test.wav 2>&1 >/dev/null |grep /dev
stat("/dev/sound", 0xbfb1e4e0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/dev/dsp", O_WRONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 7
| Maybe another app could take care of the sound - although this adds to the complexity - any youtube audio-only players out there?

I did a new implementation of the startup commands using only jwm
Code: |
<StartupCommand>
for x in /root/Startup/*;do $x & done
</StartupCommand>
|
Also a wait4x program that uses xcb vs x11
Code: |
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <xcb/xcb.h>
int die(void){exit(1);}
int main(void){
int i=1000;
while((int)xcb_connect(NULL,NULL)<0 && i-- || die())
usleep(10000);
return 0;
}

Older Puppy kernels have a static /dev/snd/ directory .
Just looked into it by loopmounting a pup-430.sfs but /dev/sound and /dev/dsp are not in /dev/snd/ .
/dev/dsp is in /dev/ .
Probably make a symlink /dev/sound/ -> /dev/snd/ .
Actual Puppy rc.sysinit deletes /dev/snd folder and uses the nodes dynamically created by the sound drivers (+udev) .

/dev/snd/* are ALSA standard devices whereas /dev/sound/[dsp|mixer|etc..] (or /dev/[dsp|mixer|etc..]) are emulated OSS devices.
We need to load additional modules for OSS emulation (snd-pcm-oss, snd-mixer-oss,snd-seq-oss).

I have been wanting to try PeasyMP3 on pUPnGO2012 (just because I like tinkering and I like the "Carousel" drag n' drop randomiser...) and if I try to run it in a terminal I get an error message something like "-f" is an illegal operation.
If I remove the several instances of "-f" parameter from the programme (eg in the line: "export -f PAUSE") I do not get any further errors, but the programme obviously doesn't do anything productive either.
My uneducated guess is this is an issue with gtk version. Can anyone suggest a way around it? (or is this just a stupid thing to try...)

I believe that "export -f" requires the bash shell. Try changing the top line from "/bin/sh" to "/bin/bash".

Gtkdialog can source functions using the -i flag. Rather than using bash and exporting functions, I would recomend separating the functions to a file.
... I think it is -i anyways

(I tried using the "./peasymp3" syntax as well as just "peasymp3").
Maybe bash is an add-on for pupngo2012? - I thought I read that once but can't now find the comment.

greengeek: There is no bash in pupngo. I posted a static bash version in the old pupngo thread. But that wont get the PeasyMP3 running in pupngo alone. The gtkdialog version is GTK1.2 and over a year old so it wont accept much newer gtkdialog syntax. A rewrite is only way out...
technosaurus: The new implementation of the startup commands using only jwm if quite nice!
For GTK functions I fully agree on the sourcing of functions principle - and keep the gtk-GUI stuff as simple as possible using the sourced functions.
Karl Godt & PANZERKOPF: Thanks for input on the sound issue!

Code: | while ([ ! -S /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 ]) do sleep .1;done
jwm -display :0 |
A shell only version of wait4x that works for the common case to minimize the time waiting for the desktop.

In case anyone is interested, I wrote my own compiler independent partial c library for compiling smaller/faster _static_ apps:
Technically its not a "library" as it is built as a single header file called libc.h and has very minimal overhead (~500b)
It is here:
