## Console-like Youtube in Gaming Mode
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Using Chromium's undocumented command-line options, the user agent can be
|
|
||||||
changed to PlayStation's, Xbox's or Tizen's (Samsung's TV OS) and the
|
|
||||||
application can be launched in full screen by using the `--kiosk` flag. The
|
|
||||||
following XDG Desktop Configuration, for example, can be used and added as a
|
|
||||||
non-Steam game while in Desktop mode for access in gaming mode
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ini
|
|
||||||
#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
|
|
||||||
[Desktop]
|
|
||||||
Version=1.0
|
|
||||||
Type=Application
|
|
||||||
Name=YouTube TV
|
|
||||||
GenericName=Online Video Platform
|
|
||||||
Comment=An online video-sharing, social media platform

# $XDG_PATH contains the paths used to fetch icons, extensions for supported formats are optional Icon=com.youtube.tv
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Firefox can also be used however the supported command-line options are
|
|
||||||
limited
|
|
||||||
- The URL for the TV user interface is https://www.youtube.com/tv
|
|
||||||
- Without the user agent change, the above URL is inaccessible and will redirect
|
|
||||||
you to the desktop version of the website
|
|
||||||
- Adblockers like uBlock Origin, AdBlock Plus (both tested) do not remove ads
|
|
||||||
even if they work with the desktop version
|
|
||||||
- Choosing an Xbox user agent is recommended as button prompts match the Steam
|
|
||||||
Deck's `ABXY` button layout
|
|
||||||
- The Electron framework can be used to build a wrapper for the URL
|
|
||||||
- This is the preferable method as it supports exiting from within the
|
|
||||||
application, while browsers only support manual termination from the Steam
|
|
||||||
menu.
|
|
||||||
- Sample code for the electron app (assuming you can build linux binaries
|
|
||||||
for the target platform):
|
|
||||||
```javascript
|
|
||||||
// sample code to get started
|
|
||||||
const { app, BrowserWindow } = require('electron');
|
|
||||||
app
|
|
||||||
.whenReady()
|
|
||||||
.then(() => {
|
|
||||||
const win = new BrowserWindow({
|
|
||||||
backgroundColor: '#2e2c29',
|
|
||||||
kiosk: true,
|
|
||||||
});
|
|
||||||
win.maximize();
|
|
||||||
win.loadURL('https://youtube.com/tv');
|
|
||||||
win.webContents.userAgent = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; Xbox; Xbox Series X) '
|
|
||||||
+ 'AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) '
|
|
||||||
+ 'Chrome/48.0.2564.82 Safari/537.36 Edge/20.02';
|
|
||||||
})
|
|
||||||
.catch(() => { });
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Miscellaneous
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- When using a dock or a hub to connect to an external display, ensure the
|
|
||||||
display supports the refresh rate set on the device; some TVs and some
|
|
||||||
monitors only support refresh rates that are multiples of 30Hz
