I will need the exact text of the errors to provide help. Copy and paste of the full error or a screen shot will do.

Thanks!

I get the same error. Downloaded spotify playlists and authorized through youtube music, then running s2yt_load_liked:

Same Error as the ones posted above

Works for me now, I did everything in the same folder on the same drive and it worked.

@Lydrix @sondr Did you make sure you execute the application in the folder where the .json files (playlists.json and oauth.json) are located?

Copying the oauth.json into the working folder fixed it. playlists.json was already there. Thank you!

Sorry for the delay in digging into this, folks. Looks like the issue was not having the "oauth.json" in the directory you're running it, as mentioned above by @CyanideLion .

I've enhanced the code now so that it reports this situation more clearly:

[N] (spotify2ytmusic-py3.10) sean@seans-laptop ~/p/spotify_to_ytmusic (main) [1]> s2yt_list_playlists
ERROR: No file 'oauth.json' exists in the current directory.
       Have you logged in to YTMusic?  Run 'ytmusicapi oauth' to login
[I] (spotify2ytmusic-py3.10) sean@seans-laptop ~/p/spotify_to_ytmusic (main) [1]> touch oauth.json
[N] (spotify2ytmusic-py3.10) sean@seans-laptop ~/p/spotify_to_ytmusic (main)> s2yt_list_playlists
ERROR: JSON Decode error while trying start YTMusic: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)
       This typically means a problem with a 'oauth.json' file.
       Have you logged in to YTMusic?  Run 'ytmusicapi oauth' to login

Thanks for reporting this, let me know if there are further issues with this.
