Hi,

A long time ago I was downloading mixes from the WEB in MP3 format (IIRC) and they came with CUE Files. Back then this was working super nicely in Poweramp. The big MP3 were splitted up in the interface according to the CUE file.

More recently, I couldn't make it work using a opus audio file and a handmade CUE file from a Youtube download (using yt-dlp)

The actual feature request would be to use the chapters definition dropped by yt-dlp like a CUE file, and to make it work on any kind of file.

I have joined an example info.json from yt-dlp. The chapters starts at line #6179 in this file.

Given that this is not an officially supported or sanctioned YouTube feature, I think it would be up to you to arrange to build any matching CUE files if you download content that way. Not really something that's appropriate to discuss here though.

It looks like there are old requests to the developers of yt-dl and yt-dlp to add the option for writing cue files but those hasn't been implemented. I found https://gist.github.com/we-taper/96792114f267fc8fcf21807b0e216ffd which is a python script that extracts the relevant parts of the json into a cue file.
