howto: jump to live #56

Closed tvraman closed 8 months ago

as an example, bloomberg on YT: https://www.youtube.com/@markets is a playlist with over 800 items right now; how do I get it to play live -- other than by hitting n 800 times

What do you mean by play live exactly? Jump to end of the playlist? I guess it automatically adds items in a way that the lastly added video of the playlist is played first. But if you still want to jump to the end of the playlist the easiest way would be opening empv-playlist-select and then hitting the up key one or two times to go over to the end of the playlist (At least this is what vertico does, behavior probably depends on your completing-read frontend). I may add a buffer based playlist manager in the future which might fix this in a better way but right now there is no other way around.

You understand it correctly ie playlist.

The issue arose because of channels like Bloomberg publishing playlists that have thousands of entries. --
