Can't reproduce with the yt channel you supplied. There was a uploader id related issue that was fixed in yt-dlp 2023.02.17, so make sure you are using the latest version (your spec mentions 2 different versions)

RCcola1987 commented 1 year ago

Their are 2 different versions since Ive tried on 2 different systems, The main system has the newest version of yt-dlp. Is their any flags i can add to get you more info.

Available version: stable@2023.03.04, Current version: stable@2023.03.04 Current Build Hash: 7494af600c4389d19961b44e406472bba7c54c28dc1f62bb72bdde7181708a9a yt-dlp is up to date (stable@2023.03.04)

error

totalsize https://www.youtube.com/@tfbtv/videos ERROR: [youtube] I4dOsVvIWwM: Unable to extract uploader id; please report this issue on https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues?q= , filling out the appropriate issue template. Confirm you are on the latest version using yt-dlp -U

RCcola1987 commented 1 year ago

I found a fix but I don't know what caused the original problem.

It appears to be an issue with they way pip installs its own version of yt-dlp. To fix this I had to use pip to uninstall both yt-dlp and totalsize. Then install yt-dlp by downloading the bin from yt-dlp's GitHub and then installing totalsize with pip. Issue resolved.

Maybe pip is doing something weird?

I solved this issue by reinstalling the pip version of yt-dlp.
