6 months ago On my Linux system, I get different results, using exactly the same download options:
/home/ra/.local/bin/yt-dlp --newline -i --hls-prefer-native --write-description --write-info-json --cookies /home/ra/tartube-data/cookies.txt --write-thumbnail --output "/home/ra/tartube-data/Unsorted Videos/%(title)s-%(url)s.%(ext)s" --windows-filenames https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_FmcHuUK0s
In your screenshot, yt-dlp is inserting a very long (and incorrect) URL; on my system, yt-dlp inserts NA for the URL:
[info] Writing video description to: /home/ra/tartube-data/Unsorted Videos/Huge explosion as Ukraine strikes Russian warship ｜ BBC News-NA.description
Both results seem to be incorrect, so I suggest reporting the problem on the yt-dlp issues page. (It is apparently not a Tartube problem.)
OS: Windows 11 Home
Tartube: v2.4.386
Video: (or any YouTube video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_FmcHuUK0s
Description: This bug occurred when I edited (applied) the filename format (in Classic Mode's settings menu) from "Title + ID" to "Custom: Video + URL". This error did not occur when using either the "Title" or "Title + ID" options. I need to use the "Custom" option as I only want video titles with URLs appended (just like using the yt-dlp CLI) but without the other .info files being generated. I tried updating yt-dlp (as suggested by the error pop-up) but nothing changed.
To recreate this error, go to Classic Mode --> Edit download options... --> Files --> change "Title" to "Custom" --> in the options, change "Video ID" to "Video URL" and then click "Add". The file output template should become "%(title)s-%(url)s.%(ext)s". Click "Apply" and "Ok". Then try downloading any video/ playlist using Classic Mode.
Thanks for reading.
