Running The Program

Setting Client ID:

On line 6 you must set your Client ID. You can refer to the link above in Pre-Reqs to see where to find your Client ID. You need to add an application and then pull the Client ID.

I reccommend using pythonw for this so you can run it in the background and not worry about a command prompt staying open.

You have to keep a single tab open on a browser for YouTube when listening to music or be tabbed into your Youtube Video for it to register!

I usually just keep one browser open to just youtube and then open another browser to browse the web. I know this is annoying but it's how it works until I find a workaround due to how the win32api finds titles. I may work on a browser extension..

Run:

pythonw.exe windows.py

and then you can close the command prompt and it will run in the background!
