A massive thanks to @LuanRT for providing the fix regarding to the extraction of the deciphering functions. Also, big thanks to @PikachuEXE for coming up with a potential alternative solution!

    The external player thing has never worked for me, at least when I set it to VLC, which just displays an error. I must be missing something.

    Edit: thanks for the replies, next time I’ll try mpv and/or haruna

        I wish MPC had a linux version. One of the few pieces of Windows-only software (along with foobar2000) that I actually miss.

        A few months back I decided to fuck around and see if I could get it working in wine, and it seemed to work OK, but pretty jank. Too jank to consider seriously using.

      I used haruna and it works. The instructions on the FreeTube GitHub could be clearer though. Depending on if you’re using FreeTube and or the external player as flatpak there are different ways to get it working.
