My question is this: Why isn't my bot playing audio?

I want the bot to join, play audio from queue, then disconnect without downloading an mp3 file.

I tried using youtube-dl, but I switched to the yt-dlp library after getting errors I couldn't fix. I am running on Windows 10 locally. All my libraries are up to date.

Here are my ydl_opts and FFMPEG_OPTS:

ydl_opts = {
    'format': 'bestaudio/best',
    'postprocessors': [{
        'key': 'FFmpegExtractAudio',
        'preferredcodec': 'mp3',
        'preferredquality': '192',
    }],
}

FFMPEG_OPTIONS = {
    'before_options': '-reconnect 1 -reconnect_streamed 1 -reconnect_delay_max 5',
    'options': '-vn'
}

Here is where I believe the problem is.

async def play():
    print("Play Called")
    musicPlay()
    # Get message object from initial request
    message = ytLinkQue.get()
    print(f"Message object recieved: {message}")
    voiceChannel = message.author.voice.channel
    vc = await voiceChannel.connect()
    songsPlayed = 0
    
    while not ytLinkQue.empty():
        # Get current song
        currentSong = ytLinkQue.get()[0]
        print(f"Current song: {currentSong}")

        # Get song from Youtube
        with yt_dlp.YoutubeDL(ydl_opts) as ydl:
            # song = ydl.download(currentSong)
            info = ydl.extract_info(currentSong, download=False)
            song = info['formats'][0]['url']

        # Play Song
        vc.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio(song, **FFMPEG_OPTIONS), after=lambda e: print('Song done'))

        # Wait until the song has finished playing
        while vc.is_playing():
            print("playing rn")
            await asyncio.sleep(1)
    
    await vc.disconnect()
    musicStop()

When play() is called, here is the output in terminal with my annotations as **** text ****:

On Discord's end, the bot successfully connects then disconnects after 2 second.

Note: I've only included code I think is relevant. Please let me know if I should add anything else to the post, otherwise, here is the github for the project. Code is in main.py. https://github.com/LukeLeimbach/wallMomentMusic

Thank you in advance!

I've applied the advice from these posts but it still will not play audio:

There's A Problem With Your URL it doesn't return a streaming URL in yt_dlp they reworked the JSON data

so you would replace:

song = info['formats'][0]['url']

with:

song = info["url"]

Hope This Helps
