First of all thanks for creating this extension! Just what I was looking for!

After a few adjustments it's working fine on my system now. Here's what I did to get it to work:

(Note: These instructions were tested on Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS with minitube installed from the Ubuntu Software Center. YMMV on other distros/releases.)

1.) Install extension from the Chrome Webstore

2.) Create a script called minitubehandler.sh with the following content:

#!/bin/bash

MINITUBEURL="$1"
ACTUALURL="$MINITUBEURL#minitube"
MINITUBE="/opt/minitube-ubuntu/minitube"

"$MINITUBE" "$ACTUALURL" /dev/null 2&1&

3.) Either move the script to $PATH (e.g. ~/bin ) or move it to a folder of your choice and copy down the path

4.) Create a new desktop file under ~/.local/share/applications called minitubehandler.desktop with the following contents:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/minitubehttp;x-scheme-handler/minitubehttps;
Terminal=false
Exec=minitubehandler.sh %u
Name=minitubehandler
Icon=minitube
NoDisplay=true

5.) Make sure to replace the Exec line with the path to your script if you decided against moving it to your $PATH

6.) Assign the desktop file to the extensions MIME type by executing the following lines in a terminal:

xdg-mime default minitubehandler.desktop x-scheme-handler/minitubehttp

xdg-mime default minitubehandler.desktop x-scheme-handler/minitubehttps

7.) Restart Chrome

That's it. The extension should now work. Head to a youtube link of your choice and try it out!


Many thanks again to Nico Farmache for coding this extension!
