A [ytdl-core](https://github.com/fent/node-ytdl-core/) wrapper focused on efficiency for use in Discord music bots.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can pass the exact same arguments as you would with the ytdl-core module, with the exception that
|
||
|
|
you must `await` the function call.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## What does it do?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For compatible videos, this module uses [prism-media](https://github.com/amishshah/prism-media)
|
||
|
|
to extract Opus audio from a stream without having to pipe it through FFmpeg first. This greatly
|
||
|
|
reduces the processing power required, making playback smoother and allowing you to play over
|
||
|
|
more connections simultaneously.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For videos where the required codec (webm + opus) isn't available, the module will fallback to
|
||
|
|
using FFmpeg to encode the stream in Opus. Many new videos on YouTube are available in this codec
|
||
|
|
so hopefully this isn't frequent.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Put simply, this module finds the most efficient way to extract a stream of Opus audio from a
|
||
|
|
YouTube video. Even in the worst case, it should still give better performance than `ytdl-core`.

|
||
|
|
connection.play(await ytdl(url), { type: 'opus' });
|
||
|
|
}
|
