Updating YoutubeDL Manually? #36

Closed DutchyOven closed 3 years ago

DutchyOven commented 3 years ago

Might be a dumb question but is there a way to have tubesync use a more up to date version of youtube or put in fields like cookies.txt into it?

meeb commented 3 years ago

There isn't really an easy way to update selected libraries inside of TubeSync which is why it's bundled in the first place. The :latest tagged image has up to date youtube-dl in it and they'll be an updated versioned release shortly as well. I'll look at adding cookies.txt support in a future release. Cheers for the feedback.

cookies is almost mandatory if you grab a lot of vids. Im getting constant 429's now. Ive had to go back to my bash scripts for the time being. It might be a good idea to be able to pass a path to an external youtube-dl ?

Yeah I've noticed this, will work on it in #38

meeb commented 3 years ago

Hi, can you give the :latest image a go and see if this reduces or resolves your 429 issues please?

I updated and it was still showing failures. It wasn’t until I reset tasks that it started to work.

So yes works fine now! Thanks!

Excellent, thanks for the feedback. I'll add a feature to clear and reset the tasks on upgrade as well to save people having to manually reset them. I'll close this issue for now as cookies support will be on the longer roadmap and is a different issue.
