Package: mpv Version: 0.14.0-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
In the past week or so I have noticed that streaming videos from youtube no longer works (or works 50% of the time). Example command that can cause freeze: mpv --ytdl "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e53DDZxOMvM"; If I understand correctly, sometimes youtube-dl downloads the audio and video separately. In my case what happens is that the entire video downloads immediately, but only 2-3 seconds worth of audio downloads. Then I see [cache] Cache is not responding - slow/stuck network connection? on my stdout. However, from the GUI, there is no indication of slow network, mpv says "Cache: 10s + 37.6 MB" which presumably corresponds only to the video cache and not the audio cache. Indeed, if I then set the audio track to none the video will continue playing. Trying to reenable the audio sometimes works, sometimes freezes the video, sometimes plays the audio out of sync with the video, etc. etc. What I expected is that if youtube-dl desides to download the video and audio separately, then either 1) there should be separate video cache and audio cache info in the GUI, e.g. "Cache A/V: 10s + 37.6 MB / 3s + 0.0 MB" 2) or the cache should display the minimum of the two, i.e. if video has 10s + 20/0 MB and audio has 3s + 0.0 MB it should say "Cache: 3s + 0.0 MB". That would at least let me know that my network is the problem. On the other hand, I'm sitting on a 1Gbps line, so my network really shouldn't be the problem. For whatever reason, sometimes youtube just decides "oh, you only get 3 seconds of audio" and the download never completes. When using youtube-dl directly I just ctrl-C and run the command one or two more times. At some point youtube realizes that I want more than 3 seconds and downloads the rest all at once. With youtube-dl ctrl-C and running the command again resumes download where it left off, but it appears that this is not the case with mpv, it redownloads everything from scratch. Is there some way to let mpv resume downloads? If not, that goes on my wishlist. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages mpv depends on: ii libasound2 1.1.0-1 ii libass5 0.13.1-1 ii libavcodec-ffmpeg56 7:2.8.6-1+b1 ii libavdevice-ffmpeg56 7:2.8.6-1+b1 ii libavfilter-ffmpeg5 7:2.8.6-1+b1 ii libavformat-ffmpeg56 7:2.8.6-1+b1 ii libavutil-ffmpeg54 7:2.8.6-1+b1 ii libbluray1 1:0.9.2-2 ii libc6 2.21-9 ii libcdio-cdda1 0.83-4.2+b1 ii libcdio-paranoia1 0.83-4.2+b1 ii libcdio13 0.83-4.2+b1 ii libdrm2 2.4.67-1 ii libdvdnav4 5.0.3-1 ii libdvdread4 5.0.3-1 ii libegl1-mesa [libegl1-x11] 11.1.2-1 ii libenca0 1.18-1 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 11.1.2-1 ii libguess1 1.2-1.1 ii libjack-jackd2-0 [libjack-0.116] 1.9.10+20150825git1ed50c92~dfsg-1 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.4.2-2 ii liblcms2-2 2.6-3+b3 ii liblua5.2-0 5.2.4-1 ii libpulse0 8.0-1 ii librubberband2 1.8.1-6+b1 ii libsdl2-2.0-0 2.0.4+dfsg1-2 ii libsndio6.0 1.0.1-2 ii libswresample-ffmpeg1 7:2.8.6-1+b1 ii libswscale-ffmpeg3 7:2.8.6-1+b1 ii libva-wayland1 1.6.2-2 ii libva-x11-1 1.6.2-2 ii libva1 1.6.2-2 ii libvdpau1 1.1.1-3 ii libwayland-client0 1.9.0-1 ii libwayland-cursor0 1.9.0-1 ii libwayland-egl1-mesa [libwayland-egl1] 11.1.2-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.3-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1 ii libxinerama1 2:1.1.3-1+b1 ii libxkbcommon0 0.5.0-1 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.0-1 ii libxss1 1:1.2.2-1 ii libxv1 2:1.0.10-1+b1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 Versions of packages mpv recommends: ii xdg-utils 1.1.1-1 ii youtube-dl 2016.02.22-1 mpv suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
