play-with-mpv VS youtube-local

Here's several options for opening with either mpv or saving with yt-dlp:

Do the suggestions here help you: https://github.com/Thann/play-with-mpv/issues/86

I'm trying to run this using python for the first time for the occasion and I encountered this error

You could open mpv quicker in command line or terminal if you added it to PATH. It's also required for extensions like play-with-mpv

When i run sudo apt install ffmpeg, it says i already have the most recent version of FFMPEG installed. But i know FFMPEG is already on version 4.4. How do i solve these issues? I got this MPV PPA from installing the Play With MPV chrome extention from here: https://github.com/Thann/play-with-mpv

Hi, it's me again, the guy wanting to enable hardware acceleration for video playblack on web browsers. All of that led me to a deep rabbit hole about how Linux lacks support for GPU acceleration for things like YouTube. After discovering Gnome Web + Gstream plugins doesn't fully offload the decoding to the GPU, i gave up and tried to install the Play With MPV chrome extention on my Google Chrome. I followed all the steps described here in the GitHub: https://github.com/Thann/play-with-mpv

i have tried to get help by posting at reddit and at github issues but no help till now.

My project here is similar: https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local

It keeps everything in the browser while still being local to the machine

I am planning to host youtube-local (https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local) on my old laptop that's running Ubuntu Server. I don't plan on accessing the instance outside the local network.

YouTube alternative frontends (web-based): - Invidious - Alternative and privacy respecting YouTube frontend. - Piped - An alternative privacy-friendly YouTube frontend which is efficient by design. - LibreTube - An alternative frontend for YouTube, for Android using Piped. - ViewTube - ViewTube is an alternative privacy-friendly YouTube frontend written in Vue.js - Youtube-Local - browser-based client for watching Youtube anonymously and with greater page performance.

FROM python:3.9 RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y git WORKDIR /app RUN git clone https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local WORKDIR /app/youtube-local RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt EXPOSE 8080 CMD [ "python", "server.py" ]

https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local It's like Invidious,but you can route your requests through Tor(if you care) and has a classic design and also has SponsorBlock,works most of the time

Been using youtube-local https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local for months if not years now, does the job pretty well.

i can recommend youtube-local with VPN for performance and privacy. Also Odysee as many Youtubers already have a channel there.

YouTube Local

Somewhat related self-plug: Self-hosted browser client for watching YouTube anonymously (Python):

https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local

It supports downloading all the raw formats (the video only ones, audio only ones, and the 360p & 720p integrated formats). More meant for watching than downloading, but some more advanced downloading features, such as merging audio+video with ffmpeg to get more downloadable qualities and auto-downloading options for playlists are planned.
