Youtube Equi-Angular Cubemap format support

[DAEMON]

Hi guys all the youtube videos I download for offline viewing these days follow this EAC format which doesnt work in your player.

Could you please add EAC as a format alongside the traditional equirectangular.

This site explains the format.

Would you provide an example of the video and we can start working from there. You download with converter?

Hi here is an example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEePFpC9qG8

I use jdownloader to download the video directly from youtube at the 4K resolution. Here is a copy of the EAC projection youtube use.

I uploaded to two sites its a 112Mb file so not huge.
