System.IO.FileNotFoundException: youtube-dl not found on path

Sorry if this is a dumb question. I see this requires yt-dlp to be in the path for this feature to work. I am running Jellyfun 10.8.0 using docker container lscr.io/linuxserver/jellyfin. How are we supposed to install yt-dlp using a containerized environment? Is the Remote provider a manual install feature only? I saw in past issues that Youtube API v3 was mentioned. Based on the current docs, is this used anymore or only what yt-dlp produces?

That is not a dumb question, I need to udpate the readme and @TheFrenchGhosty reminded me of it when I pushed out the latest. I just have not had a chance to. Yt-dlp needs to be in the container and currently it does not automatically download it. I would like to add that as a feature but have not investigated how to do so yet. Right now your options are manually adding it into the container like so

$ docker exec -it -u root jellyfin bash
$ curl -L https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/latest/download/yt-dlp -o /bin/yt-dlp
$ chmod a+rx /bin/yt-dlp
$ apt update && apt install --no-install-recommends --no-install-suggests python3

or adding it to the image

FROM linuxserver/jellyfin:nightly
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    python3-pip
RUN python3 -m pip install -U yt-dlp

This helped me with the error and installing yt-dlp.
