Why is it a floating window and not a frame? Great work, btw

Nice work. It seems that Google has cracked down on yt-dlp lately though.

Extra impressive considering he has a newborn at home. As an emacs user and fan, I sometimes feel that emacs is pushed into directions it is not meant to handle but the fact that it can be pushed to do so is its power. It's image handling has taught me that, but it also taught me that I prefer to use "the right tool for the job".

Tried it. Works as advertised :) Amazing. I am on Doom Emacs, the keyboard shortcuts don't seem to work. Clicking works. I suspect Whichkey (Space) and Evil mode (n/p..etc.,) to be the culprits. I should probably assign some sort of whichkey combo for the actions. Seriously cool. Thank you. P.S: The fact that I can ditch a 1+GB browser tab for 68MB mpv playing in the background is just :chef_kiss:
