Changing default download app

[Kritiqual]

Hi, I recently found your repo, I tried it, but the youtube-dl is kinda slow, and I want to change it to another app (e.g yt-dlp). Can I do that?

Hi. Thanks for your feedback!
It is a problem that the user can't change the key bindings and behavior of fzf.

I know about problem of youtube-dl and I'm just using yt-dlp now.
You can use yt-dlp by replacing mpv with mpv --script-opts=ytdl_hook-ytdl_path=yt-dlp.

I added some environmental variables (version 1.5), and $YOUTUBE_FZF_VIDEOS can be used for this as follows.

export YOUTUBE_FZF_VIDEOS="--bind ctrl-w:'execute(mpv --script-opts=ytdl_hook-ytdl_path=yt-dlp \"\$( echo {} | sed "\"'s/{\"//; s/\".*//'\"")\")'"

By the way, I think using configuration files of mpv player (e.g. ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf) is better if you always use yt-dlp.
Example of mpv.conf is as follows.

script-opts=ytdl_hook-ytdl_path=yt-dlp
