Cannot read properties of undefined (reading runs) #24

Open tleylan opened 1 year ago

tleylan commented 1 year ago

I only just heard about this library and I don't quite understand the usage. I see GetListByKeyword and it returns a list based upon the key word (obviously). I am more interested in a particular video however. So I tried to call: youtubesearchapi.GetVideoDetails(

Trying several different IDs (that exist) has resulted in the following error. Looking at the library code I can see it is trying to access runs but clearly it didn't find a matching object. I don't know if any existing Video ID will work or if it has to be part of playlist, channel or some such.

Would someone clarify this please? Thanks.

Can also confirm I'm getting the same error, using .GetVideoDetails(). Any help would be appreciated 🙂.

Can you guys provide the Id you tested before?

damonwonghv commented 1 year ago

I tested some videos on youtube, it did not prompt any error. Please provide me with the Video ID.

I am also getting an error (sometimes) on some video IDs when calling .GetVideoDetails(). Specifically, this ID jbnddQ9l0IA.

Error:

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'twoColumnWatchNextResults')
    at Object.GetVideoDetails ({my_project}\node_modules\youtube-search-api\index.js:259:49)
    at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)

Sometimes initdata.contents.twoColumnWatchNextResults exists and everything works as expected, but other timers it returns initdata only with responseContext object, like below, which causes the error above. This happens once in around 5 times, while using the same video ID.

initdata: { responseContext: { webResponseContextExtensionData: [Object] } },

I'm also getting same error when on initdata.contents.twoColumnWatchNextResults it occurred if same request sent again.
