AIMP YouTube-DL (support for YouTube, SoundCloud, MixCloud, Yandex.Music, etc.)

[cubis123]

1.0.3 - https://github.com/jaryn-kubik/aimp_youtubedl/releases/tag/1.0.3

- potential fix to the "FileNotFoundException" (i don't know how to reproduce this error, so it might not do anything)
- added ability to pass cookies to youtube-dl, thanks to @valery-vitko
   - you need to add a file named cookies.txt to C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Roaming\AIMP\aimp_youtubedl\
   - see https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/blob/master/README.md#how-do-i-pass-cookies-to-youtube-dl on how to get the cookies.txt file for the desired website
   - with this you should be able to log in to yandex.music and get around the 30sec thing (it's my understanding you can't listen to more than 30sec now without logging in, unfortunately it's geoblocked so i can't verify)
   - it should in general allow authorization to any other service that's otherwise not supported by youtube-dl

1.0.5 - https://github.com/jaryn-kubik/aimp_youtubedl/releases/tag/1.0.5

- added --no-check-certificate to youtube-dl, fixes some problems with retrieving urls from mixcloud and potentially other sites
- changed the default format to "bestaudio[protocol=m3u8_native]/bestaudio[protocol=m3u8]/best[ext=mp4]/best"
   - this should potentially prefer "streaming" variants that support seeking, instead of downloading the whole file or only allowing skipping forward like 30sec instead of anywhere, makes soundcloud/mixcloud somewhat better with longer tracks
   - if you already had the plugin installed you need to clear the "youtube-dl --format" field in options, after saving it should reset to the new default value
- fixed adding youtube livestreams

Right after a crash (before restarting AIMP) go to C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Roaming\AIMP\aimp_youtubedl and upload here the aimp_youtubedl.log file.

As for music.yandex, according to a dude in https://github.com/jaryn-kubik/aimp_youtubedl/issues/7#issuecomment-643685325 the cookies.txt workaround should work.
I just tried it using some russian proxy and it worked fine too.

Using google translator (I don't speak russian) you wrote "Music.Yandex has gone bad. It is not possible to make it work through cookies.txt." which is not nearly enough information.
What exactly doesn't work? Do you mean that it still just plays 30sec? How did you obtain the cookies.txt (do NOT upload the file anywhere though)? Did you put it in the right place?
Try downloading youtube-dl (https://youtube-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl.exe), put the cookies.txt in the same folder and run in command line "youtube-dl.exe SOME_YANDEX_TRACK_URL --cookies cookies.txt". Does that download the whole file or just the 30sec?

Проблема: Яндекс музыка + AIMP работает 30 секунд.

Наконец-то понял, почему у меня не подхватывался "cookies.txt" (музыка играет 30 секунд).
Причина: После экспорта кукисов, я выходил из аккаунта яндекса и только потом запускал плеер.
Соответственно, яндекс закрывая мою сессию, удалял (у себя) информацию о моём входе,
и данные в файле "cookies.txt" становились не действительны (яндекс "знает" что я ушёл).

Заново экспортировал "cookies.txt", поместил в папку плагина и запустил аимп.
Когда всё заработало, я вышел из аккаунта яндекса и закрыл браузер.
Ссылки на треки работают без ограничений.

Я опять зашёл в аккаунт, но уже другим браузером (для проверки)
в настройках безопасности профиля, было два подключенных устройства.
аимп (плагин +cookies.txt) - отображался как первый браузер (кукисы, сделали своё дело),
а текущий - как второй

добрый день, при воспроизведении Yandex.Музыки вываливается ошибка. cookies.txt - не помогает. сессию не прирывал. Прикладываю скрины.

So what's the problem now?? https://i.gyazo.com/d9da6436e1415ad8d6d111647c193259.png

Dear Developer Could you add to the plugin the ability to assign a hotkey in the corresponding item in the settings?
And also add an item in the drop-down menu (right click on playlist), but this is not a priority.
Thanks for great plugin.

v2.0.0 - https://github.com/jaryn-kubik/AimpYouTubeDL/releases/tag/2.0.0

- ditched aimp_dotnet and rewrote the thing using COM interface imports (= using the AIMP SDK APIs directly)
   - this should help with stability and get rid of random crashes (chances are I introduced other bugs, but those should be fixable)
   - allows me to use the whole API and not just what aimp_dotnet supports
   - I will probably try to rewrite the UI parts using the AIMP GUI API when I figure out how it's supposed to work - this should fix DPI support and "non-native" look

- added Album Art support
   - you have to enable finding Album Art on the internet (Options -> Player -> Additional Information -> Find on the Internet)
   - AIMP doesn't seem to support .webp images, which is a bit of a problem, because some sites (like youtube) only seem to return webp thumbnails
   - I added a workaround for youtube specifically, but it might need a similiar fix for other sites too (or AIMP could add .webp support in future versions :-O)

- added caching of the info youtube-dl returns for 5min, switching between tracks back and forth should be instant

- should no longer require the installation of Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x86)

Worked 

Install (update plugin);
Add URL (plugin menu);
Try play - only bufferization with stop;
Restart AIMP   ;
Long start;
Get error about this plugin - can't be used;
Restart again - work, but first with URL connect will be sometime and long;
Close AIMP, check AIMP.exe in task manager - freezy process (> minutes);
Start AIMP and play already added URL with close AIMP - good work;
Test again with new URLs - good work.

✔Can be use for listen video 🎶, but need time for get good work 🐱‍👤.

v2.0.1 - https://github.com/jaryn-kubik/AimpYouTubeDL/releases/tag/2.0.1
- fixed some memory leaks
- more workarounds for youtube webp thumbnails

What sites were you trying it with? Youtube or something else?
Problems on first run could be because it downloads/updates the youtube-dl.exe, I should probably run that on separate thread and display someting if you try adding/playing url while it's downloading.
I've been trying clicking on stuff aggressively and fixed some memory leaks/access violations the AIMP debug version was reporting in 2.0.1 and can't really reproduce any crashes anymore.
