[media-downloader] Download Failed(ErrorCode=1) #303

When I try to DL with the lowest quality possible, I am forced to click on "Get list" right? Then I choose the 144p option for audio/video by clicking on it

And invariably, I get this kind of output

ERROR: [generic] None: '17' is not a valid URL. Set --default-search "ytsearch" (or run  yt-dlp "ytsearch:17" ) to search YouTube

the option is not recognized, the video is high quality and there is a "download failed" error

You did not put the whole log output because i do not see the yt-dlp command executed on your output.

If you are using basic downloader tab then switch to batch downloader tab and your problem is the same as this one: https://github.com/mhogomchungu/media-downloader/issues/298

Another work around you can use is put -f worstvideo+worstaudio in the download options text field to download the worst video combined with the worst audio or if you prefer format code number 17 then put -f 17 in the download options text field.

i always click on the option "17" and it replaces the options in the option field by 17 and not -f 17, that's probably the cause of the bug??

mhogomchungu commented 1 year ago

"17" is supposed to entered and then internally converted to "-f 17".

New version is out and it solved this problem.
