How to loop and repeat Youtube videos

How to loop and repeat Youtube videos

It happen when you found a beautiful piece of music, and you want it to be repeated without a need to hit the button to play it again.

1 - Using a website :



They are Websites that provide that kind of service.
The Best of them :

http://www.listenonrepeat.com
http://www.yourepeat.com

After seeing the video, copy the link and insert it to one off the websites mentioned before. You can choose how many times you want It to be played, and the part exactly you want to play...

yourepeat has a  chrome extension to repeat YouTube videos at the click of a button.

For me the best one is listenonrepeat because It keeps the cache.

2 - Using Mplayer :



You need first make mplayer loop :

To repeat or loop an Audio or video in Mplayer

And then, view the video by using the command which starts with mplayer. It requires youtube-dl in order to run the command successfully.

mplayer -geometry 100%:100% -xy 500 -ontop -cache-min 2 -cookies -cookies-file /tmp/cookie.txt $(youtube-dl -gf 18/34 --cookies /tmp/cookie.txt "URL")

Remember to change URL by the link of the YouTube video.
This command will show a mplayer top window in the right bottom corner playing and replaying the video.

View Youtube videos without flash

We may encounter problems with flash, such as steaming  flash full screen, or with slow internet connection.

They are many ways to play Youtube videos directly from the desktop.

1 - Youtube-dl and Mplayer :



You must have these two apps(youtube-dl,mplayer) to execute this following command :

mplayer -geometry 100%:100% -xy 500 -ontop -cache-min 2 -cookies -cookies-file /tmp/cookie.txt $(youtube-dl -gf 18/34 --cookies /tmp/cookie.txt "URL")

Remember to change URL by the link of the YouTube video.
This command will show a mplayer top window in the right bottom corner playing the video.

2 - Youtube-viewer :



It makes searching YouTube video easy, It lets you watch them directly from the desktop(no browser required), and even Download them.

youtube-viewer Linux

It will search for the channels containing the name "Linux" and videos containing that word as well.
We can also filter videos we search, see the results of this command to know more :

youtube-viewer --help

I saw gtk-youtube-viewer which helps beginners more (with Gui), but It's available only to Puppy Linux users.


3 - Minitube :



Minitube
Minitube

It's a Gui app, most powerful one, which can easily search and navigate Youtube videos.
It can :

- Let you subscribe without using a YouTube account.
- Let you sort videos by relevance, date, view count and rating
- Let you filter videos by publication date, video duration and video quality.
- Let you choose the maximum video resolution up to 1080p.

and more
