Howdy! Major update just happened with Spotube! Audiophiles get ready! They upgraded YouTube streaming quality to Apple Music quality with 256k instead of 128-154. It also sounds a more lively punch to the sound that beats any other YT music clone out there.

Then they added a dab music plugin that streams at lossless quality! How about that!!!

Give it a second go. The interface still needs a little work but got a lot better since 5.0. There’s some bugs. Took me forever to figure out I couldn’t sign in to Dab with a VPN on and it actually was making playlist I created despite the error I was given. But the audio quality is worth it.

    Sorry, maybe I’m an idiot, but I cant find a single song I have on my playlists from YT or Spotify.

    Not even Queen or ABBA comes up. Am I using it wrong? Only did the install.

      You have to activate the plugins. Its nuts and really needs simplifying. Go into settings, plug ins and set your default meta source to Spotify and default audio source to youtube. It pulls all of it’s data to and from Spotify while pulling the audio from yt music. You have to make a generic Spotify account. Once it works its worth it. You do not have to sign in for yt music. Also in settings you can set it to pull from newpipe instead of yt directly. You can also set your audio quality in settings. Once that works you can try he dab HQ plugin. I haven’t gotten that to work yet but sent in an issue request.
