Mps-youtube is an open source software that allows you to play music, but recently there have been problems with this software. Such as quota limit and daily limit errors or error fetching data. Here’s how to fix errors from mps-youtube.

Error Quota Limit

For this one, just change the api_key from mps-youtube, you can use the following command.

pip3 install --user -U git+https://github.com/mps-youtube/mps-youtube.git
