Plays YouTube videos that are blocked from playing in Discord, such as music videos from UMG, instead of showing an error.
What it does
- When Discord says a YouTube video can't be played here, the video plays in its place instead. This covers videos whose owners block them on other sites, such as many music videos from UMG.
- The player is YouTube's own embed, loaded as if it were on youtube.com, which is why the block no longer applies.
- The video pauses when you swipe to another item in the media viewer, and a tap shows or hides the viewer's controls, like Discord's own player.
- Links in the player that would leave it, such as Watch on YouTube or the channel name, open in the YouTube app or your browser.
- Videos that play normally are left alone. A video that YouTube removed or made private still shows YouTube's own message.
- A port of Vencord's FixYoutubeEmbeds. Vencord reloads the blocked embed inside Discord's desktop window. Discord mobile plays YouTube in its own player instead, so this plugin swaps that player's error for a new one.
