Hi Bourrahim,

Thanks for the patch. However, I don't think it belongs to cmus' source
code â it is probably much better to have an external script for the
purpose of downloading tracks.

P.S. In the future, please consider using GitHub pull requests, if you can
â it is much more convenient to discuss code there.

Hello everyone,
I'm new to cmus devel . I just wrote a small patch that allows user to
download converted mp4 files from youtube , the output is an mp3 file . I
avoided using many dev lib to do that . So i'm using youtube-dl and ffmpeg
via the command prompt . the patch is just for linux users . can be enabled
by using -D_YOUTUBE_DL . here it is
