Error: json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0) #982

I believe this configuration has worked for a while, so I'm not sure why it's erroring out now. Log, config, and subscription attached.

It appears to be choking on an invalid archive file.

I'm not sure how it ended up writing a corrupted archive file, but that seems to be the core issue. Bh7Xf3Ox7K8 is a valid youtube video id for the associated channel.

Yep that is the reason. I think I need to find a way to prevent this, have seen this multiple times now. For now, try to manually fix it

jmbannon commented 1 month ago

Hmm actually, this looks like a yt-dlp archive which is different than a ytdl-sub archive. Not sure how that happened. Unfortunately the best way to proceed is to probably delete the archive and redownload

Going to close this issue out now that there's a fix. Thanks again for the bug report
