works fine for me once i set superior adblocking sponsorblock brave browser as the external player

>>106856146
I just click 3 dots and choose open in youtube. It opens firefox with ublock origin. I'd prefer it opening in freetube but I guess I'll have to endure.

I will never:
>buy youtube premium
>login to youtube
>not use an adblocker
>use chrome

Chrome / android / google is a monopoly and needs to be split up now.

>>106856125
yt-dlp hasn't fixed the issue either as far as my github notifications go

I'm convinced they have a working version that they just aren't releasing yet.

they'll invest the money they get from alphabet for delaying the fix back into freetube, win win

Why cant someone build a GUI client around yt-dlp? Once the videos are downloaded partially, just use the partial downloads to playback? Is that really hard?

Would it be better to download an android emulator and just run newpipe until freetube gets their shit together?
Like many have mentioned, i just use ublock with youtube.com, but i like having a local account with every channel im subscribed to and all the playlists i made NOT connected to an internet account. Having the download feature natively in the app too is nice instead of having to use a separate piece of software to do it

I'm just being Brave for now, but the problem with that is that I can't subscribe to anyone, cause no jewgle account and also I clicked on one ASMR video and now my recommendations is filled with hot ASMR sluts. I don't need this.

You can seek what is downloaded. No one's asking for perfection here. Just a simple thing that should be doable today. And if someone's internet is fast enough and has broadband service, then normal seeking should not be an issue. If you're someone who only stops to the last 1 second of the video and then complains about it, thats on you

it's a problem when resuming watching very long videos even with fast internet
>Just a simple thing that should be doable today
seeking works with my own youtube client right now so i don't need to wait
even mpv + yt-dlp works with seeking

>>106860628
>even mpv + yt-dlp works with seeking
So seeking is a non-issue. Just implementation.

>>106860445

yt-dlp doesn't work well with mpv because it chooses speed throttled formats and can cause buffering
the extraction is also slow because it's written in slow python and makes unnecessary network requests
i use my own extractor which doesn't have these problems

You can use freetube as a GUI for yt-dlp if you use an external player. Select your player in options then direct it to the exe, afterwards clicking the icon in the bottom left of the thumbnail opens your external player. From there you just need to figure out how to connect yt-dlp which varies depending on the chosen player.

for some reason no one wants to make a desktop youtube client that isn't a web browser or require lots of setup for scripting language dependencies
it was like that when i decided to make my own youtube client and it's still the same now
my youtube client is lightweight and dependency free so it's just extract and run
>>106861199
>They just haven't updated freetube for ??? reasons.
because they can't
they depend on a third party library for extraction and have to wait for it to be fixed
