ah I see. pipe-viewer parses the youtube website for its information
youtube-viewer uses the youtube-api and hence needs a api key
from pi-apps.
@ItsTerm1n4l can you please explain what the difference is between the two projects both being updated and seem very similar by trizen.
https://github.com/trizen/youtube-viewer
https://github.com/trizen/pipe-viewer
I don't really understand but trizen states that pipe-viewer is a fork straw-viewer which itself was a fork of youtube-viewer. yet straw-viewer is deprecated (archived on github) and both pipe-viewer and straw-viewer are active
You opened an issue on pi-apps already for trizen's youtube-viewer but it was closed due to needing a youtube api key

@ItsTerm1n4l, you may not know the answer to this question, but is there a way to force a lower resolution when playing the video? I was able to search and play a YT video using pipe-viewer without issue, but the mpv player spends more time loading than it spends playing. It is around 20 seconds of load time for every 5 seconds of playback. For obvious reasons, this is not ideal. Is there a simple way to reduce the video resolution so that it plays smoother?

Sry for the late response,
@theofficialgman The difference between pipe-viewer
and youtube-viewer
is that pipe-viewer
doesnt need an API key whereas youtube-viewer
does.
@Botspot yes you can reduce the video resolution or just play the audio, you can configure this in the config file (I had to add .txt to upload it) if you want to only stream audio you need to use the -n
switch
youtube-viewer -n
from pi-apps.
This is interesting though because I have used youtube-viewer
with video without a lower resolution with mpv
on my Raspberry Pi 4 and not issues.

I usually just stream audio in the background which it can do fine because it is so fast and lightweight.
