play-with-mpv VS ytdl-patched

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.

For me, the less-complicated client called "DVD" is more reliable for downloading than the client called "Newpipe"; the later stops working intermittently. YMMV.

(Neither are as reliable as using own custom command line programs on desktop, or mobile via Termux. If Google makes a change I can fix/workaround immediately. No waiting for app developers.)

For me, Newpipe works well as a Soundlcoud client.

From the Kotlin source for "dvd":

Once downloaded, the video files can be played anywhere, on any device.

If yt-dlp works, you can also use Celluloid to watch videos from Youtube — choose Open Location and enter the YouTube video or playlist page.

I'd recommend you to have a look at yt-dlp [0] and NewPipe extractor [1]

Couldn't you just use the subtitles from youtube directly?

Or are these worse than whisper?

yt-dlp or one of its many GUI frontends.

Give yt-dlp a try: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp

The only ads are the ones the creators insert into the videos themselves.

youtube-dl is broken now and barely updated for some byzantine reasons, no?

yt-dlp is supposed to be the new hotness, though I've yet to try it. https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/
