🚀 | YouTube Music Ytmusic support #1762

Closed Tecnologic closed 2 years ago

Tecnologic commented 2 years ago

Hi,

Play ytmusic songs/playlists/albums like Spotify.

For V2 I just installed the ytmusic extension to have get iris browsing my ytmusic account. When I then added the link from iris to an RFID card it worked.

My question is where to start adding the feature? On which branch/fork can I start. How is Spotify integration planned for V3?

Thanks.

if you like to officially contribute to 2.x, you can send a pull request for the develop branch. The primary backend to play MP3 is mpd. To allow seamless switching between local file playback and other backends, we are currently extending the future3 player to be able to work with various music backends. We currently work on Spotify using the librespot-java plugin.

This would allow us to integrate other backends as well, like Youtube Music. We could refer to mopidy's extension for YT Music.

Once we have released this multi music backend support, we can start adding more. If you like to contribute to the current Spotify branch, feel free to join.

I agree: if it works for V2.x, add it as a pull request to V2.x future3 is the future, but still not the present :)

It's not stable for v2. That's why I wanted to jump on the V3 train. The Spotify branch ist future/Spotify? I'll check that out. Don't expect to much I'm embedded dev not very familiar with python.

in the meantime i did dig a bit deeper. I came to the conclusion that using mopidy extension ytmusic with future3 is not a good solution because Spotify implementation uses librespot-java. But the ytmusicapi lib for python seems a valid option.

The library gives back the stream url for a requested file. How can i forward that url to the jukebox player?

Or asked differently where to start?
