This mod requires ffmpeg and yt-dlp for YouTube audio processing. These tools are only needed on the server (not clients in multiplayer), if in a Single Player, they will download to the client.
During Mod Initialization(and custom records are enabled via Configs), betterdiscs will automatically download or if needed, update these open-source tools from their official GitHub releases:
yt-dlp: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp
ffmpeg: https://github.com/BtbN/FFmpeg-Builds (Windows/Mac)
If you're choosing to download manually, and it starts to fail when trying to create a new record, BE SURE yt-dlp is updated to the latest version!
Linux users: It's recommended to install ffmpeg via your package manager (apt install ffmpeg, dnf install ffmpeg, etc.) instead of the auto-download.
