PSST might be a bit more popular than SmartTube. We know about 15 links to it since March 2021 and only 15 links to SmartTube. We are tracking product recommendations and mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you identify which product is more popular and what people think of it.
Protip: You should download a non-stock YouTube app to your TV instead, for instance: https://smartyoutubetv.github.io It has YouTube premium and more, e.g. Sponsor lock, it's over all superior. And free. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
SmartTube is nice for the TV too if you have a firestick or something you can install it on, because as well as getting rid of ads it has sponsorblock built in. Source: 12 months ago
I think there might be more to this story. This app is what people generally use to sideload apps on a locked Google TV device such as the Google Chromecast. One such commonly sideloaded app is SmartTube, an unofficial YouTube client with no ads and SponsorBlock included: https://smartyoutubetv.github.io/ I'm not surprised Google is eager to take it down under any pretext, and not so eager to restore it. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
Im talking about this one https://smartyoutubetv.github.io/ . If you click "fork me" It takes you to next. On the tv its named "SmartTube" with a red logo. App info gives the package name as com.teamsmart.videomanager.tv V18.15. Source: about 1 year ago
You install SmartTube. Use that and never see an ad again. Https://smartyoutubetv.github.io/. Source: about 1 year ago
On the other hand, this Rust-based one called Psst looks awesome and works: https://github.com/jpochyla/psst. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
Psst but currently very limited in features and have to build yourself. Source: about 1 year ago
I don't know how can I install this open source software from github. Source: over 1 year ago
Would like to add that you can also use clients such as spotify-qt and Spotify TUI to control said "device". There's also Spot and psst that are standalone (librespot not required but no Connect functionality). Source: over 1 year ago
You can also take a look at Psst. I use Symphonia for decoding and CPAL or CubeB for output. CubeB is a bit nicer. Source: over 1 year ago
