# 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
|
|
- Select a video from the queue to play from an interactive menu,
|
|
or navigate through the queue with keybinds
|
|
- Open the URL of the currently playing video in a new browser tab.
|
|
- Fetch and display the names of YouTube videos.
|
|
- Print the current contents of the queue
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- 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 setting in
|
|
`mpv-youtube-queue.conf` as described in the [install section](#installation).
|
|
- 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.
|
|
- The script maintains its own queue separate from mpv's internal playlist.
|
|
This means that loading files manually or using the next/previous buttons on
|
|
the mpv OSC will not affect the queue.
|
|
|
|
