youtube gallery app integration
asked 2016-08-29 19:11:29 +0300
as you may have read some youtube videos are playing (they seems to be mp4 and 3gp) are played occasionally on the gallery app for me...this, while being a bug could be a great addition for sailfish os...make the gallery integrated with youtube... it could work like that : you open gallery app and you have (other than videos, photos and accounts) a pulley menu that show/hide a search box for youtube (lile the one in people app). The results could be show in thumbnails like vides are in gallery app and play section could be like fb and onedrive app where you have to exit fullscreen to have comments and informations, and quality could be selected via a pulley menu like ytplayer does...so what do you think?i know there are other apps for youtube but having an integrated app would be a great feature for me since noone else have it :)
I wouldn't be fond of a solution that forces one service only upon the user. A better way would be to allow accounts for flickr, youtube, vimeo, instagram, etc to be created in system settings. Accounts that are associated with multimedia content would then show up in the gallery. (I'd prefer to have them there not as selections in a pulley menu, but as additional items on the main screen. My gallery would then open and present me a choice of local images, local videos, flickr, vimeo and instagram.)
