=== ABOUT ===

stov is a program which allows you to subscribe to channels, playlists and search results on youtube. (More platforms may be implemented later) You don't need a youtube account for the program to work since it uses read-only access to the youtube API. You can for example run it as a cron job to automatically download your favourite videos.

=== USAGE ===

see ./stov.py --help

=== DEPENDENCIES ===

stov depends on the following software to be installed:

* Python 2.6 or higher (it might also work with earlier versions, but hasn't been tested, python 3 is not supported yet)
* youtube-dl (get it from http://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/ if you don't have it yet

=== COPYING ===

see LICENSE

MAXVIDEOS: Maximum number of videos to retrieve from the youtube API for each subscription,

VIDEOCODEC: Video codec used for downloaded videos (valid values: h264, webm or flv)

and won't be tried again
