	<title>Youtube</title>

	<p>Googles <link href="https://youtube.com/">Youtube</link> provides a quirky
        JSON API that makes browsing channels and genres feasible. This beta plugin
        provides a little overview, and usually retrieves recent video uploads.</p>

        <p>VLC can directly play Youtube URLs. For other players the default application
        setting wraps <link href="http://youtube-dl.org/">youtube-dl</link>, which is also
        used for recording.</p>
