9 abby is written in C++ and depends on the Qt framework.

17 * abby requires path to either clive(1) or cclive(1) command
18 This is defined in the program preferences (Edit / Preferences).
21 * abby can parse RSS feeds for video links
22 The links can be tranferred to the download list after this.
25 * abby can scan for video links from any web source
26 The scan feature currently supports only Youtube links ("regular"
27 and embedded). It can be used to scan Youtube playlists, for example.
29 * If you are an avid user of Youtube RSS feeds, see here:
30 http://www.youtube.com/rssls
32 And note that the previously supported:
33 http://youtube.com/rss/user/(username)/videos.rss
35 No longer work with abby, due to some HTTP redirecting voodoo Google
36 has decided to use. Instead use:
37 http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/users/(username)/uploads?alt=rss
39 You may also want to append "&orderby=updated" to the URL.
