better sort option (reverse)

[spiderbit]

Hi,

I like mt really much, I am a programmer by myself, but very rusty in c++ so if you would help me maybe I could do that by myself, but maybe its easier to do for you.

I have following problem, I watch sc2 games from different channels, if I click on newest the newest comes on top so far so good. If thats a 1 Part video thats what I want, but if its a multipart game or its a match that goes over some games I see the last game/part at the top.

There should be 1 of 2 solutions first would be, play games from a selected one upwards so I go lets say to the 3. game and press play-reverse button and it playes that way or the maybe easier solution what would not need a new button/gui design would be select 3 or 5 or 7 matches and in then in the context menu there would be a resort-reverse option.

The deluxe solution would be that minitube would detect with regex such stuff and sort it automaticly. But that is maybe not 100% fault-proof, because somebody is maybe not so consistent in naming multipart-videos properly, but on the other hand, mostly they do (I watch as example huskystarcraft, hdstarcraft or psystarcraft)

yeah I have a similar problem, watching sc2 videos from newest to oldest doesn\’t cut the cheese. So I reversed the playing order but probably you don\’t want to change the default behaviour. What options do we have? Maybe a conig dialog?

No dialogs on Minitube! I think adding a new tab like “Less recent” would be enough.

Yes I think that would be good ;)

Hi

I also watch Starcraft and coded in a reverse play order menu option. This is just a simple hack:

If it is ok with flavio I can link to a compiled version…

I don’t think this is going to be included. This behavior is kind of unintuitive. Unfortunately it looks like YouTube APIs do not provide a way to load videos from older to newer for channels.
