Unfortunately the last time I checked there are some licensing/api restrictions that make it hard to extract the audio stream from a youtube video. It is possible, but it would probably not be legal or at least not according to the youtube licensing agreement.
I looked at it some time ago and it's definitely possible to extract the audio if you got the video stream, the problem is to get the video stream as I think you need to scrape the youtube web site to find it and they tend to change things now and then to make that as hard as possible. Fortunately, Triode came to my rescue and implemented the Spotify plugin, so now I can at least preview anything that's available on Spotify even though it costs me $10 per month. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80027 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
