Cathodique 1.1 released
March 9, 2010 by Dmitry
The shiny new version of Cathodique is available! This release brings more features, removes clutter, and fixes bugs.
Here are the highlights:
Video formats popup

Instead of the “HD” button there’s a new popup that allows you to select SD, HD 720p or HD 1080p as preferred video format.
Sharing

Now you can quickly send a link to video to your friends and followers without copying and pasting it. With the new Share menu you can share video by email, in Twitter, Facebook, or Google Reader (including Google Buzz if your Reader and Buzz are connected).
Bookmarklet
Do you want an easy way to open videos in Cathodique from your web browser? Just put the bookmarklet into your browser’s bookmarks bar (click Cathodique > Install Bookmarklet or go to this page).
When you’re on YouTube, click the bookmarklet to open video in Cathodique. This also works with any page that has embedded video from YouTube (and if there’s no video, it will search for selected text).
It works with any modern browser (Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, etc).
Alternatively, you can drag and drop a link to YouTube video into the Dock icon to open it.
Recent Searches

Cathodique now saves your recent searches (and, of course, there’s a way to clear them).
To make user interface less cluttered, we’ve removed “Toggle Search Results” button. The feature is still there and is accessible via View > Toggle Search Results menu or using a keyboard shortcut (⌘B). We ♥ minimalism!
Download Cathodique 1.1 now (or click Cathodique > Check for Updates to install the new version using the built-in updater. ).

Thank you for such a pure and fast app ! Now, I’m testing Cathodique 1.1 . But, search results are not displayed when I make the number of the biggest searches bigger than 50 in a setting page. Is this specifications?
Thanks! I have reproduced this bug. My first thought is that it’s the limitation of YouTube API for a single request, but I’ll investigate this.
Is there 10.5 Leopard version?
Dmitry: no, it’s only for 10.6.
How nice is this app. It would be perfect if it could also download youtube videos (as SD, HD, 720p, and 1080p, similar to the download helper plugin of firefox).
Many thanks.
Thanks! Unfortunately, YouTube’s Terms and Conditions don’t allow us to implement downloading.
