Description

Some testing of the backport in feature/smtube was done by Alessandro:

> When opened, it says “cannot connect to youtube server” and everything
> is grayed out. I suspect it’s not aware of the proxy, and there seems
> to be no command-line options to set one.

And with torsocks:

> It worked partially. Now I can browse and search clips, but I can’t
> watch nor download them.
>
> When I try to play, it launches an external player and it can’t find
> the stream (tried with totem and mplayer)
>
> When I try to download, it fails with an error. Also, the following
> text appears on the console:
