Configuration
This program will create a config file the first time it reads config (checking subscriptions or checking video player) in one of these directories:
- Linux:
/home/USER/.config/rs-youtube/config.toml
- Windows:
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\j0lol\rs-youtube\config\config.toml
- macOS:
/Users/USER/Library/Application Support/com.j0lol.rs-youtube/config.toml
If you would like to edit the config, refer to the config.toml.default
file.
The config file defaults to loading mpv, and will have 0 subscriptions. You can subscribe to a channel by searching for its channel page, then picking the "sub" option.
