Title: YouTube player audio only
Post by: Jesuitical on September 21, 2014, 05:33:44 PM

I'd like to see an audio-only option on the music tab, we don't watch the videos when we have songrequests open as we're usually playing a game

When the music tab is not active - the player automatically stops rendering the video effectively switching to audio only mode from a processing perspective and does not consume resources to render the video.

However, Youtube does not have a feature to fetch only the audio stream, so from a bandwidth perspective the video also needs to be fetched. To minimize impact of this, the video is set to a very low quality by default.

I didn't know about switching tabs - thanks for the response.
