Possible to list Youtube comments ? #5

Closed GunGunGun closed 1 year ago

I'm trying to write a scroll list to display and read through Youtube comments, is this possible with this plugin or a full plugin is needed because so far MPV doesn't provide API to get Youtube comments, but yt-dlp does with --write-comments but I don't know if it's possible to interact with this plugin after that ?

It is possible, once you've grabbed the comments using mpv's subpocess command you just create item tables with the contents that you want to see. You can see here for a simple example: chapter-list.

Scroll-list can create the scrollable list for you, but fetching and interpreting the comments is up to you.
