mpv ffmpeg yt-dlp
>>17937 nice to see this here
>>17937 Henlo!
>>17968 wasn't sure where would be good place for us
>>17937 should i get into this? i just use yt-dlp in cmd using commands from a text document if i want a youtube vid
>>18005 it's as simple as mpv <link>
bro, i'll probably figure it out on my own, but i only just noticed that yt-dlp has been giving me low-res videos, for who knows how long now, because of a change requiring a "PO" token: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/12563 the issue was made march 8th, so it's over a month old. searching "dlp token" on the 4chan /g/ archives, i see a single thread about it from march 11th: https://desuarchive.org/g/thread/104679251/ but it is clearly a happening thread. i'd really hate to have to read this shit. i just wish i could be spoonfed how to set one up. i wish yt-dlp streamlined the process somehow in an update by telling me what to do. i am really bad with tech and this shit gives me grey hairs. again, i'll probably figure it out on my own, though. but sucks so bad
>>18294 have you tried the workaround that changes the extractor(s) used without involving tokens?
>>18300 no. pls gib (i stopped trying to figure it out since i was lazy, sorry)
>>18301 it's the second suggestion from the first reply in the issue you linked!
>>18324 thank you, anon!!! thank you. i am so sorry for being so incompetent. sorry. i read that reply, but i didn't understand that all i had to do was add that to the command. thank you!!! it does return a warning: WARNING: [youtube] dQw4w9WgXcQ: web_safari client https formats require a GVS PO Token which was not provided. They will be skipped as they may yield HTTP Error 403. You can manually pass a GVS PO Token for this client with --extractor-args "youtube:po_token=web_safari.gvs+XXX". For more information, refer to https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/PO-Token-Guide . To enable these broken formats anyway, pass --extractor-args "youtube:formats=missing_pot" but it turned a 6mb low-res video into a 246mb high-res one, so i assume it just werks. thank you again.
Can someone give me a good mpv config? I'm far too lazy to look into all the options
