Package: mpv Version: 0.35.1-1 Severity: important Hi and thanks for maintaining mpv in Debian!
After upgrading from yt-dlp/2023.02.17-1 to yt-dlp/2023.03.04-1, mpv is no longer able to use yt-dlp to play YouTube videos. This seems to be due to a change in yt-dlp to solve widespread, severe throttling. According to yt-dlp Debian package maintainer, mpv needs [two] little [patches], in order to adapt to the new yt-dlp version. [two]: <https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/94c189dae76ba280d9883b16346c3dfb9720687e> [patches]: <https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/362256edbc4f95c63e69c1fa8c8dce9cc6c44288> For more details, see bug [#1033517]. [#1033517]: <https://bugs.debian.org/1033517> Now, I am well aware that bookworm is currently in hard freeze, but I believe that this bug is important (very important, I would say!) and should be fixed, even during the freeze. According to the [freeze policy], even in full freeze, fixes for important bugs are appropriate, as long as they can be done via unstable (as it is currently the case for mpv). [freeze policy]: <https://release.debian.org/bookworm/freeze_policy.html> Please, please consider cherry-picking the above [two] [patches] to mpv Debian package and applying for an unblock, as described in the [freeze policy]. Thanks for your time and dedication!
