"This Video is Unavailable" message whenever I open a video #114

Open babylonianhina opened 1 month ago

babylonianhina commented 1 month ago

Forgive me, I am a dumbass with very little web dev skills. I followed this guide on reddit to make a YT2009 instance and for the past 2 days it was working great, but now every video I click on redirects me to the main page with the message "This Video is Unavailable". Is there any fix for this? Please be easy on me

hi, are you running yt2009 on a vps? your ip range could be blocked by youtube which could prevent videos from loading.

babylonianhina commented 1 month ago

I was hosting it on a free Render server as per the tutorial I followed

as mentioned to #117, this sounds like yt-related changes. an option to work around those is being worked on.

Same issue here, getting this error on an Oracle Cloud Linux instance. I did have issues hosting Cobalt before, that seemed related to IP blocking. Wouldn't surprise me.

Update: I don't get the warning and tutorial to sign in when I open a video, I just get the same error. Is there a way I can do this manually?

you can manually run node yt2009tvsignin.js from the /back/ directory. complete the setup, exit the script with ctrl+c and restart yt2009.

I am so sorry, I am a novice and a dumbass so please forgive me if these constant questions are irritating, but can you give me a tutorial on how to go about that? I am not a coder or web dev by any means, just an enthusiast who followed a Reddit tutorial
