Hello,

I was wondering If there is a special way I am to go about getting YouTube to work with Amulet.

Right Now, I can call YouTube by saying: "Go To You Tube"

but then it is a screen with the You Tube Logo on it for a really long Time, and nothing happens.

How should I go about Searching You nTube for Videos?

Thank you SO much in a davnce,

I love Amulet Remote!! Best thig I ever bought!!

Unfortunately, YouTube kept changing their TV interface (originally Flash, then HTML5, now Chrome-only HTML5) and we were unable to keep up since the Amulet YouTube interface worked by driving the YouTube TV implementation automatically.

However, I've spent some time over the past few weeks looking at what would be necessary to support the current incarnation of YouTube, using a hosted Chrome browser launched inside Media Center.

I hope to have some good news soon on this, since it's a feature I really miss myself!

This is interesting because chrome browser has a voice recognition search plug in that puts a little microphone in every search box that opens in chrome. Could amulet also take advantage of this?

I haven't heard of chrome browser being opened in media center before, and it sounds like an extremely useful thing to happen.

Thanks again for the great software :)
