Youtube MPlayer Controller
ytmpc is a set of tools to manage youtube searches/channels you want to watch and opens them in (S)Mplayer
At the moment the tools that are included in this package are: "ytmpc" and "yt_curses"

yt_curses
---------
The main tool now is yt_curses (a curses-wrapper around of ytmpc)
Its inspired by minitube, but has a quick console curces gui, it starts the videos from the oldest to the newest in the choosen time-span. So you dont have to rearange a playlist like in minitube to get multipart videos run in the right direction. Additionaly another point why I wrote it, if not the most important one, is that it uses mplayer instead of gstreamer. On machines like some of mine (amd zacate) that makes 1 to 1.5 cores busy if you watch it in 720p, and browsing and other multitasking tasks slow down badly. with ytmpc/mplayer it only keeps here 0.5-0.7 cores busy.
if you like it and want to give me suggestions what I should make better or anything else, feel free to write me a email to s.huchler@gmail.com
Just start it with:
> ./yt_curses
its pretty much self explainable, just press the key that you see in front of the function you want:
With the keys [c] and [s] you can switch the stream mode s for a normal youtube search and c for channel.
Then press [n] for new, to add a new search/channel. Now your most recent Searches gets listed and you can, start them again with the numbers in front of it.

ytmpc
-----
The rest of the helpfile is to show you how you can use the ytmpc programm directly, its less user-friendly but has yet some more features, like downloading your selection. or a shuffle mode:
Commands:
---------
command: search / download / stream / playlist
query: 'multiple keywords' / singlekeyword / u_author
order: relevance, viewcount, published or rating
number of results: 1 - 50 | -1 for all (50 is maximum)
timespan (optional): today, week, month, all
mode (optional): shuffle, reverse
Controls:
---------
p = prev
n = next
SPACE = pause
Strg + q = quit
Example usage:
---------------
./ytmpc search 'ukf drum and bass' rating 20 shuffle
Returns 20 videos with query sorted by rating and shuffled
./ytmpc download 'ukf drum and bass' viewcount 10 shuffle
Downloads 10 videos with query sorted by viewcount and shuffled
./ytmpc stream 'ukf drum and bass' relevance 2 month
Stream 2 videos with query sorted by relevance and uploaded between now and a month ago
./ytmpc stream u_PsyStarcraft published 10
Stream the 10 latest videos of the Channel from PsyStarcraft
./ytmpc stream u_hdstarcraft published 10 reverse
Stream the 10 latest videos in reverse order from hdstarcrafts channel
./ytmpc stream u_hdstarcraft published -1 reverse today
Stream all the latest videos FROM TODAY in reverse order from hdstarcrafts channel
./ytmpc playlist 'ukf drum and bass' relevance 2 month
Outputs a playlist in the m3u format to the console
hope that can be used for piping playlists to other players
./ytmpc playlist 'ukf drum and bass' relevance 2 month > /tmp/ytmpc.m3u; totem /tmp/ytmpc.m3u
Creates a temporary playlist and opens it with totem
INSTALL
=======
Either clone the git tree and then with root-privileges call:
> python setup.py install
Or with Pip:
> pip install ytmpc
***
(don't forget to install SMPlayer with apt/yum or whatever tools your distribution gives you,
because SMPlayer is not in pypi so pip cannot install that dependency)
***
Requirements:
=============
SMPlayer
Python 2.7+
python-gdata
Enjoy!
