    I’m not sure the invidious: protocol supports live streams, it seems like it’s only fetching a single fragment from the HLS stream. What you’re trying works for me using a direct invidious instance URL, e.g. https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=cmkAbDUEoyA.

      You are absolutely right.

      Anyways, the idea is to mimic the ytsearch1: feature but for invidious – search for a video id based on its title, drop id on an invidious stance, and play it. I’ve got half of it.

      Forgot to mention that live streams play just fine as well, but only if played directly on youtube.
