Request to be able to return only the playable YT URL

[PaulWebster]

Currently using yt-dlp locally with a command line something like ...
-f', $format_string, '--get-format', '--get-url', '--no-playlist'
where the output from yt-dlp is parsed to find lines starting with https or digits (format number).
That data is then used a launch a separate player.
Being able to perform the same thing via a remote yt-dlp would be useful since the player is often on a low power machine.
There is no need to fetch the content ... just need the textual output from the above command ($format_string is replaced with the (audio) formats supported by the player.)
Do you think that would be feasible to implement relatively easily?
