Codec: add opus support

[tiagogaspar8]

Hi!

I wanted to ask for support for the opus audio codec instead of the current aac. It's open source so it's a better alternative to fit with the current VP9 coded.

I've read also that it might have better audio quality (?).

Thanks!

This isn't currently possible, as inputstream.adaptive doesn't support opus currently. It will be added to the add-on when possible though.

Ok, should I keen this open?

On another side not, I'm confused about the differences between YouTube and tubed, is there any literature on it?

Thanks for the quick response!

As a test, I edited the resources\lib\youtube_plugin\kodion\impl\xbmc\xbmc_context.py file and changed 'opus': None in capability_map to 'opus': '2.3.14' and it played with opus audio with no issue

I must have missed when this changed, thanks for the heads up. Will look at adding it.
