Youtube Viewer

[Raghav Gururajan]

Hello Guix!

I have both youtube-viewer and mpv installed. Under preferences of
youtube-viewer, there is "video_player_selected               =>
"mpv",". But when I click play in youtube-viewer, the media is not
opening in mpv. What should I do to make this work?

Regards,
RG.

I can't reproduce this (as it happens, I have both youtube-viewer 
and mpv installed in my regular profile):

============================ Terminal Time 
=============================
~ λ grep video_player_selected 
.config/youtube-viewer/youtube-viewer.conf
  video_player_selected => "mpv",
~ λ youtube-viewer

===================== MPV opens in a new window 
========================

Are both youtube-viewer and mpv installed to the same profile? 
Which profile is that?  Could you try the command

  guix environment --pure --ad-hoc youtube-viewer mpv -- 
  youtube-viewer

to see if removing any possible sources of confusion helps?  (That 
command also works for me, but I don't *need* it.)

I'm also a bit confused by your phrasing, ‘under preferences…’ and 
‘…click play’.  For me, youtube-viewer is a CLI tool and I've 
always used it as such.  Are you saying there's a gooey?

Kind regards,

My line breaks were off.  That's one command on one line.

Yes, they are both in my user profile.

I did this and I was led to "hidden@address ~ [env]$". Anyway, I never used command-line for this app.

I am using the GUI. Yes, GUI is installed by default. In my GNOME Dash, it appears as "GTK Youtube Viewer" with a "blue camel" in the icon.

Please run the entire command (also the part after --) on one line 
(see my follow-up mail).

Oh.  I don't use a desktop menu.  Today I learnt that 
‘gtk-youtube-viewer’ exists :-)

Anyway, both the GTK and CLI versions invoke MPV just fine here. 
Could you try running both in a pure environment?

Kind regards,

Yes. Please find the following error.

You might need to update youtube-dl.  It seems that Youtube breaks its
API once in a while.

youtube-viewer and youtube-dl are different applications right?

Right.  My bad.  Seems that --pure is a bit too pure for the GTK 
version.

What does the regular ‘youtube-viewer’ say when run in that pure 
environment?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A lot of the times your brain “feels” way younger or older than you
are. That's called mental age. Do you wanna know yours? Lucky for you,
Bright Side put together a simple test that will help you figure out if
you're a carefree child, an old and wise sage or just exactly as
mentally “old” as you are. Just answer our questions, write down your
points for every answer, add them all up and get your results! But
enough talking, let's begin! 

If you got 7-12 points, mentally you're just under 20 years old. It
doesn't matter what your passport says – you’re a carefree teenager at
heart! If you're way older than 20, congratulations – you've managed to
carry this constant feeling of enthusiasm and love for life through all
these years. Keep shining!

If your result is 13–20 points, you are 20–29 years old. You are
active, creative, and full of life, but you can already call yourself
an adult. Childhood and teenage years are over, but you took the best
from them and left all the unnecessary stuff behind. It doesn't mean
that you're not having fun though – your life is just as exciting as it
was.

If all of your points added up to 21–28 points, your mental age is
30–39 years. You’re still active and curious about new things and
ideas, but you are already responsible and thoughtful. If you think
about it, that's the perfect balance between the children's joy for
life and adults' independence. The golden mean at its best! 

If your total number of points is 29–35, you are 40–49 years old.
You're mature and experienced, and you know exactly how to live your
life. You have no time for nonsense – you're determined and
hardworking. You know what you want and how to get it. Continue to be a
true inspiration for everyone around!

36–40 points mean that your mental age is over 50 years. And that's not
a bad thing at all! On the contrary, you are wise and calm. You get
what life is all about, and you highly appreciate comfort. You're the
person everyone goes for advice, plus you can always be trusted. These
are some rare qualities today, so your friends must protect you at all
costs.

So what’s your mental age and how close is it to your real age?

As far as I know, youtube-dl is used as a backend for mpv.
Not sure about youtube-viewer.

yes but the config file for the GTK version is
.config/youtube-viewer/gtk-youtube-viewer.conf

Raghav can you please check that it contains

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

  video_player_selected               => "mpv",

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'm using both GUI and CLI and I had to configure both, they both start
mvp "on click"

Actually, without the pure environment, youtube-viewer works just fine in CUI mode. The media open automatically in mpv. 

But the issue is, in GUI mode, when I play a video, it doesn't open.

Yup.  (It's even an absolute store reference now.)

It doesn't refer to ytdl, and the pure environment, at least, 
doesn't propagate ytdl, so I don't *think* it's used here.

Was there any patch done to the youtube-viewer package? I just made a fresh re-install of Guix System, and the player opens up from GUI automatically now. :)

Tobias has been keeping youtube-viewer updated, and in commit 0dd8da from early January I made sure the .desktop file is installed.  The later should let you launch the program from an icon in your desktop environment, if that's what you mean. :)

No No, not that. When I click play inside youtube-viewer GUI, the media never
automatically opens up in a media player (mpv or vlc), even though I configure
to do so. But now, it works.
