Try but fall

[VLiulian]

Hi! Your project looks interesting. I followed your instructions to create a docker, but unfortunately I didn't end up with anything that works: I don't have any files in my /media folder, even if I changed the cron data or added a new youtube channel.

P.S I have a gui in localhost:5005

Go to yout ytdlp2STRM folder and run:

python cli.py --media youtube --params direct

and paste the output here.

Hi, this the output : /opt/ytdlp2STRM$ sudo python cli.py --media youtube --params direct

@VLiulian Did you try installing the requirements again? Make sure you use sudo or maybe install requirements manually.

Go to yout ytdlp2STRM folder and run:

python cli.py --media youtube --params direct

and paste the output here.

I have a similar issue and this is what I get when I try that command.

Also I don't understand the Jellyfin instructions. Can you elaborate? I try to put media/Youtube on the Jellyfin Library dashboard and it just gives me an error:

"There was an an error adding the media path. Ensure the path is valid and Jellyfin has access to it"

@Bortronx I've made a small fix in the YouTube class,. It's not typical, but please try it with the latest commit may be works. Additionally, it would be helpful if you could execute the following yt-dlp command in your terminal and paste the output here:

yt-dlp --compat-options no-youtube-channel-redirect --compat-options no-youtube-unavailable-videos --restrict-filenames --ignore-errors --no-warnings --playlist-start 1 --playlist-end 1 --print channel_url https://www.youtube.com/user/xbox

Regarding the Jellyfin media library setup, you only need to add the strm_output_folder that you have configured in the plugin. For example, on my Windows machine, I have set the strm_output_folder in the YouTube plugin to D:/Youtube. This means that all Youtube STRM files will be created inside this directory. Therefore, D:/Youtube is the folder I need to add to Jellyfin as a media library.
