6 years ago Hi!
I'm sorry, but I don't totally understand what you are asking for. If you mean you want the video to remain hidden but hear the audio, use set show_video false, to only hear audio.
If you want the application to be in the background, terminology has tab support, you can just open mpsyt in a different tab and switch to another one for other work.
Or are there some issues you are having with only Terminology?

6 years ago Good morning, Dear Tommy @Razesdark.
Laconic: Terminology console has feature to play video as transparent alpha background. Question: Could we somehow play mpsyt videos as console background using Terminology feature?
Thank You, Dear Tommy.
Terminology console commands:
Set terminal background video lnx#> tybg /home/me/Videos/demo.mp4
Set background transparency lnx#> tyalpha 50
Preview could look something like that:

6 years ago Try set player tybg inside mpsyt.
If tybg support video stream urls, this might work.

That set player tybg doesn't help.
That's why I'm asking here.

Here a sample video preview, how could it be, if:

6 years ago I think that introducing functionality targeting specific terminals and similar is not something I would be inclined to agreeing with. Especially not unless a developer that uses it steps up and promises to support that piece of functionality. If only we got the version with plugin support up and running it would be different, however.
But maybe this can work for you. I tried installing terminology through pacman but it gives me some package conflicts that I'm not that stoked about looking into atm so I can't verify this, but the following command should give you a similar effect.
mpsyt has a custom download command that should be able to be altered to serve this purpose by utilizing youtube-dl.
A command like
set download_command youtube-dl --exec "tybg {} & tyalpha 50" %i then selecting a video by running dv # where # is the numbered search result you want to watch, should technically allow you to download a video and show it in the background.

6 years ago @Razesdark, Thank You.
I get the hint. I'll try to figure it up some how. Should be oKey! :)
This command is working, but downloading a lot of time.
set download_command youtube-dl --exec "tybg {}" %i
We have at least one working solution. Much better. :)
Good morning, Dear Mps-YouTube.
