My bad, you’re right. I set up a log last night and saw yt-dlp being used. I guess the major difference is how yt-dl is implemented in the mix now(?) I’m just going off random info from threads…  
But!.. While reading over this github thread again  
([VRChat (438100) · Issue #1199 · ValveSoftware/Proton · GitHub](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/1199#issuecomment-1975023427)) I literally just noticed something I must have glossed over a few times. There _is_ a legit well-maintained fork of Proton-GE with an RTSP patch. ([Releases · SpookySkeletons/proton-ge-rtsp · GitHub](https://github.com/SpookySkeletons/proton-ge-rtsp/releases))  
Also, it looks like using MPEG-TS instead is the solution. Hopefully, club owners/MCs will pick up on this and everyone will be able to enjoy music events equally in the near future!
