Commit [treason](https://git.sr.ht/~ft/treason).
Install [youtubedr](https://github.com/ftrvxmtrx/youtubedr):
9fs ftrv.se
gunzip /n/ftrv.se/bin/youtubedr.amd64.gz > $home/bin/amd64/youtubedr
## Playing just audio alone
mcfs -t 1 `"{youtubedr -i 140 -o /tmp/audio.mp4 ybGOT4d2Hs8} | audio/aacdec > /dev/audio
## Playing video and/or audio
The easiest way to play ANY video on Youtube is to use H.264 baseline stream. It's of pretty bad
quality image-wise, but contains audio in the container itself and doesn't require too much CPU
resources.
treason `"{youtubedr -i 18 -o /tmp/_vid.mp4 ybGOT4d2Hs8}; rm -f /tmp/_vid.mp4
If you want to find the best possible format, use the following script:
#!/bin/rc
rfork ne
vitag=`{youtubedr -info $"1 | awk '/av01/ { print $2; exit }'}
if(~ $#vitag 0)
treason `"{youtubedr -i 18 -o /tmp/_vid.mp4 $"1}
if not
treason -a `"{youtubedr -i 140 -o /tmp/_aud.mp4 $"1} `"{youtubedr -i $vitag -o /tmp/_vid.mp4 $"1}
#rm -f /tmp/_^(aud vid)^.mp4
## Caveats
Many. Patches welcome.
