## Getting started
|
|
|

|
|
|
fediplay comes configured to use `ffplay` from [FFmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/) to actually play music.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- On macOS, `ffplay` is part of the [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) `ffmpeg` package, but you need to build it with `brew install ffmpeg --with-sdl2`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- On Windows, `ffplay` is part of the [Scoop](http://scoop.sh/) `ffmpeg` package.

|
|
|
|
|
Toots that include the hashtag #fediplay and have as their first link something that [youtube-dl](https://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/) can play, will!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If new #fediplay toots come in while music is playing, they'll be downloaded immediately and queued to be played later.
