Bug#901580: Doesn't play well with upstream youtube-dl
Package: mpv
Version: 0.28.2-1
Severity: normal
Hi.
I noticed that https://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/mpv/blob/debian/master/player/lua/ytdl_hook.lua
is different than upstream ( https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/player/lua/ytdl_hook.lua#L511 ) .
My guess is that this is because it is made to work with what is provided
in Debian repos for youtube-dl?
I do have youtube-dl from git, and it is in my PATH.
However mpv fails to correctly use it.
When I call mpv -v -v, I see command line to youtube-dl to execute:
[ytdl_hook] Running: youtube-dl --no-warnings -J --flat-playlist --sub-format ass/srt/best --no-playlist --format bestvideo+bestaudio/best --all-subs -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKemIJ0G1C8
[ytdl_hook] youtube-dl failed, trying to play URL directly ...
and then mpv fails.
If I run youtube-dl literally as is from the debug output, I receive
correct JSON output with URLs to video formats, etc. And exit status is
0. (via echo $?).
So some handling of subprocesses in Debian version of mpv ytdl_hook is
not quiet right.
$ youtube-dl --version
2018.06.14
$ which youtube-dl
/home/baryluk/bin/youtube-dl
$ readlink `which youtube-dl `
/home/baryluk/youtube-dl/youtube-dl
$
Regards,
Witold
