You're now able to use cookies from your browser to fetch the songs. See
config.toml.
Long tracks (15 min to 1 hour+) didnt playbecause every song was fully
downloaded with yt-dlp into the cache before mpv was started.
Resolve the direct media URL with yt-dlp -g and hand it to mpv, so
playback starts within a couple of seconds. Cached files are still
used when present.
Add an [audio] section to config.toml:
- download: download songs to the cache before playing (default false,
i.e. stream). Prefetch of the next track only runs in this mode.
- download_max_minutes: in download mode, songs longer than this (or of
unknown length) are still streamed so 0 means no limit. default is le 15.
- cookies_from_browser: passed to yt-dlp as --cookies-from-browser for
playback, for when YouTube asks to sign in or blocks a song.
- Windows support: drift now runs natively on Windows, using named pipes instead of Unix sockets.
- Song context menu: press G on any song for quick actions like play, queue, add to playlist, and song info
- Redesined command menu: the : prompt has a new, cleaner design
- Visualizer: a live audio visualizer now sits in the bottomleft corner
- Keybind hints: the most useful shortcuts are showen next to the volume control
