What you want IINA to do:
youtube-dl integration with IINA is fantastic! But the former has been superseeded by yt-dlp. Is there a possibility to add direct support for yt-dlp in IINA?
What IINA does currently:
I can hack my way to have IINA find yt-dlp by symlinking it:
$ brew uninstall youtube-dl
$ brew install yt-dlp
$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/yt-dlp /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
That does the trick and IINA can use yt-dlp as-is.
Why you think this should be added:
The only missing piece to have perfect integration is to have IINA look for a list of youtube-dl-like binary in their default macOS location. That way we do not need the symlinking hack or have to tweak settings in the Network preferences:
