Errors

[DuncanRobson]

Thanks for making this! I'm excited to finally play with it. Unfortunately I'm getting these errors (Win10):

I'll look into it! Can you send the vtt file that you're using?

[DuncanRobson]

I'm using it on multiple files and I just realized some of the downloaded subtitles were not in English. The English ones work fine.

Another problem is that it won't find files when I give it a wildcard. I'm getting around this by giving it a list of all the files.

[antiboredom]

I see - I'd still like to fix that... As far as multiple files go I wonder if the "*" pattern doesn't work on windows? In any case, it would still be helpful if you could send the failing vtt file.

[DuncanRobson]

I lost that file. I'll see if I can find another that gives the same error. It seems that if a YouTube video already has subtitles you can't auto-generate them.

i assume this happens when trying to search chars outside of the assigned charmap here.txt is a Hebrew one that fails similarly.

thanks for the tool!

hi @5shekel and @DuncanRobson: can you you reinstall videogrep from the git repo and let me know if things are working now?

pip3 install git+https://github.com/antiboredom/videogrep

[5shekel]

yep, works!
