Usage and user interface are identical to youtube-viewer. +For playing videos, this uses mplayer, vlc, or mpv. However, the mplayer +that ships with Slackware 14.2 has some issues with straw-viewer (or +actually with youtube: the audio stream cuts out randomly). Using vlc +or mpv is highly recommended. + Optional dependencies: perl-Gtk3, perl-File-ShareDir - for gtk-straw-viewer. |
