Youtube parsing speed issues. #415

Closed masterofobzene closed 3 months ago

masterofobzene commented 3 months ago

MPC-BE struggles to parse/open video. It takes too much time to do this task.

I include a comparison video with MPC-HC. Both are using the same yt-dlp.exe.

I would really like to use MPC-BE because its great playlist management (aka paste from clipboard 😁).

It’s the other way around for me - MPC-BE opens faster, although I use the built-in parser. On yt-dlp the opening speed is approximately the same. So here you need to look at what format/resolution both players open in, it’s not the speed of Youtube parsing - but the speed of opening links.

Give this link to the video.

I had mpc-be configured to use yt-dlp instead of the built-in parser, that made a lot of difference. Both were configured at the same 1440p res. Now I left mpc-be with built in parser and so far so good.

mpc-hc takes 2 seconds more to parse (calls yt-dlp) then starts playback 1 or 2 seconds faster than mpc-be.

I will close this since in the end both behave more or less equal now using built in parser in mpc-be.

thanks
