MPV

Issue / Suggestion

• With the following mpv settings:

cat ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf 
ytdl-raw-options=sub-format=en,write-srt=

• I am able to play Youtube videos with subtitles. For example:

mpv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPPJ7GGDyAw

Also I have symlinked the files inside ~/.config/mps-youtube:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 nikhil   17 Mar 31 20:03 mpv-input.conf -> ../mpv/input.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 nikhil   15 Mar 31 20:03 mpv-mpv.conf -> ../mpv/mpv.conf

• But mpsyt doesn't play the video with subtitle. Am I missing out some detail? Please suggest, as there is no documentation on how to do this.

Also, Is there ways to specify commandline arguments for youtube-dl?

Please add this feature if it is not supported.
