This is a small project to download audio from youtube and then play it back.

It uses youtube-dl to download the video and then converts it using ffmpeg.

The Scripts/ directory contains build scripts for Windows and Linux, and the Vendor/ directory contains Premake binaries (currently version 5.0-beta2).

Prerequisites

Visual Studio 2010 (VC++ 10.0) SP1
(Optional) ffmpeg installed in "C:\\FFmpeg\\ffmpeg\\bin\\ffmpeg.exe" (or simply edit the checkFFMPEGInstallation method in Backend/Backend.cpp)

Getting Started

1. Clone this repository
2. Backend is where the magic happens and Frontend will be used for a GUI in future versions
3. Open the Scripts/ directory and run the appropriate Setup script to generate projects files. You can edit the setup scripts to change the type of project that is generated - out of the box they are set to Visual Studio 2022 for Windows and gmake2 for Linux.

Note that no macOS setup script is currently provided; you can duplicate the Linux script and adjust accordingly.
