I also think about buying a yeeloong but after everything I've read, watching
youtube videos / videos in general will be difficult.
I quote this link: http://b.mtjm.eu/lemote-yeeloong.html
> Gentoo has patches making full-screen low quality YouTube videos playable
(used WatchVideo for this), this probably could be ported to other distros.
There are ongoing discussions on a new SiliconMotion video driver on the
X.Org development list, maybe this driver will improve this situation (it has
xrandr support).
So I think you need some special patches for watching low-res-videos (!)
which are only provided by gentoo.
Don't know if it's possible to liberate gentoo; we could kick out the default
kernel and use linux-libre instead, but I don't know if they have free-only
repos.
