mpv-youtube-queue

A Lua script for mpv that allows you to add YouTube videos to a queue, navigate through the queue, and select a video to play.

Features

Add YouTube videos to a queue from the clipboard
Fetch and display the video and channel names of the videos in the queue
Select a video to play from the queue with an interactive menu, or navigate through the queue with keyboard shortcuts
Open the URL of the currently playing video in a new browser tab
Open the channel page of the currently playing video
Download the currently playing video

This script uses the Linux xclip utility to read from the clipboard. If you're on macOS or Windows, you'll need to adjust the clipboard_command config variable in mpv-youtube-queue.conf
When adding videos to the queue, the script fetches the video name using yt-dlp. Ensure you have yt-dlp installed and in your PATH.

This script requires the following software to be installed on the system

Copy the mpv-youtube-queue.lua script to your ~~/scripts directory
Optionally copy the mpv-youtube-queue.conf to the ~~/script-opts directory to customize the script configuration
