## Play videos in your terminal!
|
|
|
|
{: height="300px" } {: height="300px" }
|
|
|
|
Assuming you have mpv, just run `CACA_DRIVER=ncurses mpv -vo=caca *path_to_video*`.
|
|
|
|
You can also pipe `youtube-dl` into this command, but sometimes I get a bunch of cryptic error messages. I've found that downloading the video beforehand tends to work better.
|
|
|
|
I also recommend turning down your terminal's font size.
