Allow up to 3 concurrent YouTube Music streams (#6160)
# What does this implement/fix? YouTube Music was capped at a single concurrent source stream, so a second player starting playback had to wait for the first one to release its slot, which shows up as stalled starts and "reached its limit of 1 concurrent source streams" in the logs. A slot covers one upstream fetch, not one player: a sync group playing one track holds a single slot however many speakers it feeds. Three leaves room for a second player and for buffering ahead, while YouTube still enforces its own per-account allowance by pausing or stalling playback past it. **Related issue (if applicable):** - n/a ## Types of changes <!-- Tick exactly one box. CI (.github/workflows/pr-labels.yaml) derives the label from the ticked box and applies it automatically; the release-notes generator uses that same label to slot this change into the next release notes. --> - [x] Bugfix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue) — `bugfix` - [ ] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality) — `new-feature` - [ ] Enhancement to an existing feature — `enhancement` - [ ] New music/player/metadata/plugin provider — `new-provider` - [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected) — `breaking-change` - [ ] Refactor (no behaviour change) — `refactor` - [ ] Documentation only — `documentation` - [ ] Maintenance / chore — `maintenance` - [ ] CI / workflow change — `ci` - [ ] Dependencies bump — `dependencies` ## Checklist - [x] The code change is tested and works locally. - [x] `pre-commit run --all-files` passes. - [x] `pytest` passes, and tests have been added/updated under `tests/` where applicable. - [ ] For changes to shared models, the companion PR in `music-assistant/models` is linked. - [ ] For changes affecting the UI, the companion PR in `music-assistant/frontend` is linked. - [x] I have read and complied with the project's [AI Policy](https://github.com/music-assistant/.github/blob/main/AI_POLICY.md) for any AI-assisted contributions. - [ ] I have [raised a PR against the documentation repository](https://github.com/music-assistant/music-assistant.io/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) targeting the main or beta branch as appropriate. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 <[email protected]>
