[GIS] way to syncronize the current view extent in QGIS with Google Earth

google earthqgis

I already have the openlayers plugin but it's not working has I need it and I wanted to have the same view on both QGIS and Google Earth. Any ideas?

Update:

I'm using the openlayers plugin which enables me to add the google iamgery as a layer in the TOC. But it takes a long time to load and messes up the scale i'm working with. So i would like to have qgis with my layers, and simultaneously have google earth displaying the same extent view.

Have you looked at the Click-fu plugin from Barry Rowlingson's repository (3rd party)? This allows you to click a location in the QGIS map and load the corresponding location into various web mapping services in your browser. Not quite what you're asking as the two images aren't synchronised, but close.
