Support for yt-dlp
Hello using youtube-dl in a-shell was a godsend. Sadly the throttling broke youtube-dl. Is there a way to get yt-dlp or something similar to work in a-shell? i tried installing yt-dlp via pip but it will not work. Thank you in advance for any suggestions how to make that work
pycryptodomex seems to have C components, which means it cannot be installed by the user. I will have to cross-compile it.
Just wanted to chime in and say that if cross-compiling it is a possibility, I would also be thankful. Using a-shell to grab YouTube videos for offline playback during night shifts was a very appreciated use case.
While is would be nice to have pycryptodomex in the meantime this is straight from the yt-dlp README and works great on a-shell:
" On some systems (like Termux), it is not possible to install pycryptodomex. In that case, install without dependancies:
python3 -m pip install --no-deps -U yt-dlp
"

oh my god I LOVE YOU
I can install pycryptodomex on termux now, without errors. But still errors out on ios.
Some sites like youtube serves subtlety malformed streams that ffmpeg does not like, and a patched ffmpeg is required
Therefore, for full yt-dlp support, the patched ffmpeg needs to be bundled/provided as wel.
