Adding Youtube text #5

Closed q7z closed 3 years ago

q7z commented 3 years ago

Is it possible to extract the video description from the text too? That would be phenomenal.

quintrino commented 3 years ago

I was going to suggest title too, but it already does this by default.

Maybe the channel name?

trashhalo commented 3 years ago

Doing a little research this weekend. I found a path that will give us description and channel name, but it would require you to install youtube-dl on your system. Do you think that would be okay?

I already have it installed so fine by me. 👍

q7z commented 3 years ago

Yep! That works. It is a power user feature already so it's not unreasonable to expect that dependency.

:boom: 0.8.0 youtube-dl powered details

q7z commented 3 years ago

@trashhalo Thanks so much for this! Is there any way I can use this on a playlist?

I am on macos and have youtube-dl and ffmpeg installed but the extra details do not appear (no errors in the console).
