This mod exposes a simple API that uses yt-dlp and ffmpeg to download songs in a temporary folder for sPEAKer to use from version 2.0.0 onwards. These two are executables included in the package, thus its increased size compared to base sPEAKer.
If for any reason you want to, this can be uninstalled and sPEAKer will continue to work without it by using mixtapes as it always did. It is listed as a dependency simply to save most users from the extra step of looking for and installing this addon.
There isn't anything to configure in this mod, just install and sPEAKer will use it. Also, don't be alarmed if it hasn't been updated in a long time. It was designed not to be updated unless strictly necessary.
Lastly, yt-dlp has announced the potential need for an external JavaScript runtime in the future thanks to the changes YouTube is doing. At the time of release, this addon works fine without one. Regardless, I tested it using Deno successfully.
If you reeeeally want to future-proof yourself, drop a copy of deno.exe inside /onlystar-ytModule and the addon will use it. I haven't tested it with other runtimes, but they should work too. In any case, I'll probably never include a runtime in this package.
Enjoy YouTube playback inside PEAK! :-)
