Switch from mpv to Symphonia

Open LeoRiether opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Mpv makes it harder to install tori, build it in CI and gives us less control over the player. Maybe it would be nice to switch to ~~rodio.~~ Symphonia. (Symphonia is more flexible and better suited than rodio).

What about playing from youtube?

I think so, yes.
MPV can open and play links directly and there are many simple CLI and TUI frontends for it to play the radio together with MPV.

What's the point of using tori with MPV when you can do all this without using tori?

yt-dlp can output the fragments of a video, which are URLs we can download the audio from directly. Livestreams are a bit more complicated, but should be doable as well. This will always be supported in tori, otherwise it would break my own playlists lol
