# youtube-upnext
|
|
A userscript for MPV that allows you to load the up next/recommened youtube video on the fly, as though you were using the web player.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Toggle the menu with `ctrl+u` (configurable). Select from the list with the arrow keys (configurable), and press `Enter` (configurable) to select. Menu times out after 10 seconds (configurable).
|
|
|
|
Press `Space` to append to the playlist. Close menu with `Escape` or `ctrl+u`.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Copy youtube-upnext.lua into your scripts directory, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
cp youtube-upnext.lua ~/.config/mpv/scripts/
|
|
|
|
optional, copy the config file:
|
|
|
|
cp youtube-upnext.conf ~/.config/mpv/script-opts/
|
|
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have cURL or GNU Wget installed.
|
|
cURL is included in Windows 10+, macOS, Android and many Linux distributions.
|
|
|
|
### Windows:
|
|
|
|
The location of the scripts directory on Windows is `%APPDATA%\mpv\scripts` e.g. `C:\Users\cvzi\AppData\Roaming\mpv\scripts`
|
|
|
|
$\textcolor{#D00000}{\textsf{Microsoft ships an old version of cURL with known vulnerabilities.}}$
|
|
You are encouraged to install a newer version of cURL:
|
|
* Official cURL releases https://curl.se/windows/
|
|
* [Chocolatey package](https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/curl)
|
|
* [git for windows](https://git-scm.com/) includes a version of cURL
|
|
|
|
If you downloaded/installed the curl/wget executable, you have to [add the directory of the curl.exe/wget.exe to your machine's
|
|
%PATH%](https://stackoverflow.com/a/41895179/10367381).
|
|
|
|
### [uosc](https://github.com/tomasklaen/uosc) menu integration
|
|
|
|
If you want to add the upnext menu to **uosc**, you need to add one of the following line to your `input.conf`.
|
|
If you use the line starting with `#` it just creates an entry in the uosc menu.
|
|
If you use the second line, it also creates a keyboard shortcut to open the menu.
|
|
Replace `u` with the key of your choice:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# script-message-to youtube_upnext menu #! Youtube Recommendations
|
|
OR
|
|
u script-message-to youtube_upnext menu #! Youtube Recommendations
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want it to appear in a submenu, replace `Youtube Recommendations` with e.g. `Utils > Youtube Recommendations`
|
|
|
|
<ins>Note:</ins> If you're using the default menu of uosc and you don't have the uosc menu defined in `input.conf`, you first need to create
|
|
a menu configuration. You can find an example at https://github.com/tomasklaen/uosc#examples
|
|
|
|
If you want an entry in the controls bar of uosc, you can add the following to the `controls=` entry in your `uosc.conf`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<stream>command:queue_play_next:script-message-to youtube_upnext menu?Up Next
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Pick your desired title instead of `Up Next`
|
|
* Pick another icon instead of `queue_play_next` from [Google Material Icons](https://fonts.google.com/icons?selected=Material+Icons)
|
|
|
|

|
### mpv.net:
|
|
The script folder for mpv.net is:
|
|
`%APPDATA%\mpv.net\scripts`
|
|
|
|
The .conf files belong into:
|
|
`%APPDATA%\mpv.net\script-opts`
|
|
|
|
The keyboard shortcut in the script and the .conf-file doesn't work with mpv.net.
|
|
You need to set the keyboard shortcut yourself in your `input.conf`. Default location is `%APPDATA%\mpv.net\input.conf`.
|
|
Add the following line to the end of your `input.conf` (change the key if it's already used):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Ctrl+u script-message-to youtube_upnext upnext-menu
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### SVP
|
|
|
|
Installation is the same as for normal mpv. You need to install yt-dlp. On Windows you have to
|
|
[add the directory of the yt-dlp.exe to your machine's %PATH%](https://stackoverflow.com/a/41895179/10367381)
|
|
or put yt-dlp.exe into `%APPDATA%\mpv\` e.g. `C:\Users\cvzi\AppData\Roaming\mpv\yt-dlp.exe`.
|
|
|
|
You need to update yt-dlp occasionally when it stops working.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately SVP does not make the quality available to scripts. That means the quality settings that were
|
|
selected in SVP are not preserved when the next video is loaded.

## Credit
|
|
- I pretty much copied the [mpv-youtube-quality](https://github.com/jgreco/mpv-youtube-quality) script and added wget
|

|
|
## [youtube-quality](https://github.com/jgreco/mpv-youtube-quality)'s Credit
|
|
- [reload.lua](https://github.com/4e6/mpv-reload/), for the function to reload a video while preserving the playlist.
|
|
- [mpv-playlistmanager](https://github.com/jonniek/mpv-playlistmanager), from which I ripped off much of the menu formatting config.
|
|
- ytdl_hook.lua, from which I ripped off much of the youtube-dl code to fetch the format list
|
|
- somebody on /mpv/ for the idea
