I'm not sure how cde works exactly, but I think it can "look" outside of the cde-root (for e.g. mplayer), but the dependencies need to be present inside.
Also I think mplayer2 cannot work with youtube-viewer, I only had success with latest mplayer from Stretch.
Don't really know why the --fullscreen is in the config file, anyway for me it doesn't play fullscreen (if I configure 480p, it works as expected)the youtube-viewer .conf file is set to --fullscreen, which may explain why videos play properly at 480p in DebianDog but in Puppies with the CDE package they play 'fullscreen' meaning
What's in the config file is the resolution of my laptop, indeed maybe try to change according to your resolution, e.g:
Code: Select all
mainw_size => "1024x768"
