Youtube unity lens scope

Lorenzo @ Atareao.es has created an Unity video lens and a YouTube scope for it, which lets you easily search and even play YouTube videos in either an external player (and thus, without using Adobe Flash) or your web browser.

The latest YouTube scope for Unity Video Lens comes with a tool which lets you select the external player you want to use for playing YouTube videos and it currently supports yviewer, VLC, Minitube (you'll need the latest 1.7 version) or your default web browser.

By default, the YouTube scope for Unity Video Lens search doesn't seem to work too good and it displays unrelated results, at least that was the case in my test. However, this can be fixed by selecting "Relevance" under "Order" in the lens filter.


To install Unity Video Lens and YouTube scope in Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot, use the commands below:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:atareao/lenses
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lens-video scope-youtube

To select the default player, search for "scope-youtube-configurator" in Dash.
