fix for broken thumbnails on youtube #73
Description
Hi, since a week thumbnails stopped working for me on youtube, so I tried many settings. What I found out is that everything works again when you switch the setting in the server.lua file prefer_mpv=yes in the file itself it is stated as true or false so you have to change it to prefer_mpv = false, and ofcourse you need to have ffmpeg installed correctly on your PC.
I don't know what is causing this issue, maybe someone could look into it so it would work again natively with mpv.
Here are my modified files if you don't want to mess with it.
mpv thumbnail script ffmpeg.zip
you can use a batch like this to update yt-dlp fast to the latest nightly, as it's crucial to have everything work properly
@echo off
:again
yt-dlp --update-to nightly -4
