# youtiPy
# Easy (or not) py(music)player :musical_note:

Here's a little program that allows you to play songs (or anything) from YT via CLI

# Why ?

* I wanted to do it.
* I just needed to get rid of Spotify and Youtube at work for listen to music.
* Need something minimalist that just do the work without a fatty GUI.
* Need something that (please) DO NOT DOWNLOAD the damn whole video.
* I wanted to do it.

Maybe its not the best implementation of the idea, but works for me, and I hope it works for you too.

Any new idea or request, just ask me please :D

	```python

	```
* add a song to the queue (From previusly searched term):
	```python
	$ >> add song_id
	```

	```

# Troubleshooting

* My music is not being played, This thing sucks! :
	* Try to check if cvlc lets you to stream any video, sometimes the lua script is outdated and crash with larger streams, if that is the case, do the following:

* copy the content of this [file](http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=blob_plain;f=share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua;hb=HEAD) in to:  
		* `/usr/lib64/vlc/lua/playlist/youtube.luac (arch)`  
		* `/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/vlc/lua/playlist/youtube.luac (ubuntu x86)`  
	Then, try again :D !
