tucansam Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Anyone? Old version I could copy-and-paste an URL, click the button, and away it goes. Now, clicking the button adds it to the list, but I have to click the actual download arrow icon to get it to download. Quote Link to comment

Thamer Alfuraiji Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Anyone knows how to enable mutli-thread downloading ? also if it's possible to enable multi file download in the same time ? Quote Link to comment
Construc_ Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 is there a way to specify additional download parameters, such as: --write-description ? the output template is great, but doesn't quite let me do that^, thanks. the description contains the links to the artists/songs, etc. and this would help greatly 🙏 Quote Link to comment

Opawesome Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 (edited) You are in the right place 😀. I just think your syntax is wrong. You should probably set the value to: {"writedescription": true} to respect the JSON format requirement (I assumed you had already some options set up with the right format). See https://github.com/alexta69/metube?tab=readme-ov-file#configuration-via-environment-variables for the details. It says: Quote YTDL_OPTIONS: Additional options to pass to youtube-dl, in JSON format. See available options here. They roughly correspond to command-line options, though some do not have exact equivalents here, for example --recode-video has to be specified via postprocessors. Also note that dashes are replaced with underscores. [...] The following example value for YTDL_OPTIONS embeds English subtitles and chapter markers (for videos that have them), and also changes the permissions on the downloaded video and sets the file modification timestamp to the date of when it was downloaded: environment: - 'YTDL_OPTIONS={"writesubtitles":true,"subtitleslangs":["en","-live_chat"],"updatetime":false,"postprocessors":[{"key":"Exec","exec_cmd":"chmod 0664","when":"after_move"},{"key":"FFmpegEmbedSubtitle","already_have_subtitle":false},{"key":"FFmpegMetadata","add_chapters":true}]}' Edited February 24 by Opawesome Quote Link to comment

I just got cookies going after a fair bit of trial and error. I added two entries, one a path for the cookies folder, and the other is an environment variable to specify the YTDL_OPTIONS. Path: Host Path: /mnt/user/appdata/MeTube/cookies Environment Variable: Key: YTDL_OPTIONS Value: {"cookiefile":"/cookies/cookies.txt"} Exported my cookie file from my browser, put it into the correct folder on my server, restarted MeTube and it works.

bthoven Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) This youtube link does not work with mp3 download, but it works with online youtube-to-mp3 conversion. Could you please take a look. I'm running latest metube version. Thanks. Update: I found the cause of error: the filename is too long. I don't know how to solve it because I can't set a customs filename with meTube. Any workaround solution? Update2: I have changed the "Output Template" parameters from: %(playlist_title)s/%(title)s.%(ext)s to %(title)s.%(ext)s but meTube still can't convert it successfully. It still reported filename is too long, even the output filename is now less than 100 characters (94 to be exact including spaces). The status bar has some progress and then terminated. I did check the yt-dlp version, it is the latest one, 2024.03.10 I also tried converting it with yt-dlp.exe, same version, on my Win 11 terminal and it converted successfully PS C:\Users\axath> D:/yt-dlp.exe -o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" https://youtu.be/z6clhiZ4w4E?si=-y_Foai1Qh2KmTYp [youtube] Extracting URL: https://youtu.be/z6clhiZ4w4E?si=-y_Foai1Qh2KmTYp [youtube] z6clhiZ4w4E: Downloading webpage [youtube] z6clhiZ4w4E: Downloading ios player API JSON [youtube] z6clhiZ4w4E: Downloading android player API JSON [youtube] z6clhiZ4w4E: Downloading m3u8 information [info] z6clhiZ4w4E: Downloading 1 format(s): 22 [download] Destination: ไข่มุก เพ็ญสินี เพลง เอาความขมขื่นไปทิ้งแม่โขง | รอบ โจทย์เพลงทัศนาจร จากรายการเพลงเอกซีซั่น 3.mp4 [download] 100% of 27.54MiB in 00:00:01 at 23.78MiB/s PS C:\Users\axath> d:/yt-dlp.exe --version 2024.03.10 Edited March 18 by bthoven provide more updates Quote Link to comment
Shady420 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 On 11/1/2021 at 3:51 PM, alexta69 said: Hey, Glad you're enjoying it! There's actually a PR being worked on right now (https://github.com/alexta69/metube/pull/73) that adds MP3 support. So hopefully that will be in the master version soon enough. Other features are not planned at the moment from my side, but contributions are welcome, if you want to take a stab at it Regarding YTDL_OPTIONS, it's specified that it's expected to be in JSON format, so it doesn't look to me that there's any information missing there. Alex has something happened to this docker? the download part works but when you want to edit them into or with another video there is no video this just started happening been using metube for 2 years now worked fine up to about 3 months ago so its not good unless you just want to watch it then its fine but if you want to use it in a video don't work you have to download the video then watch and screen rec it im mean i can just screen rec it from YouTube right from the get go no need to metube but if you have any info on what is going on thanks Quote Link to comment
Azozo Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 (edited) after the last update, i can't download from crunchyroll what is the problem ? Edited March 16 by Azozo Quote Link to comment
JustOverride Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 (edited) Soooo, lets say someone 😐 entered a YT channel, and now the whole channel is downloading. Stopping/Restarting the container is not cancelling the download. How do I do that does someone cancel the process now? (Edit) I loove its simplicity, and clean layout, but really why isn't there a stop button? Edited June 1 by JustOverride Quote Link to comment
tucansam Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 I am having trouble understanding how to download the video description and comments. How and where do I put these variables? I've read the above posts but am still confused. Also, is there a multi-threaded option whereby multiple videos can be downloaded at the same time? Quote Link to comment
tucansam Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 I'm seeing in the log that youtube thinks I'm a bot and want me to log in. All downloads are failing. How do I log in? Quote Link to comment
tucansam Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 I was seeing download speeds of 7-10MB/s, and now I'm getting 600k/s. Quote Link to comment
tucansam Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 So no one is monitoring this thread then? How do we pass yt credentials so we "log in" to yt and avoid the bot errors and failed downloads? Quote Link to comment

Hi, author of MeTube here - the MeTube project (https://github.com/alexta69/metube) does not see active development from me (because it's feature-complete as far as I'm concerned), but the version of yt-dlp that it comes with is upgraded automatically every time there's a new release, and once in a while I'm upgrading other dependencies too (including new versions of Angular). It's also open to contributions from anyone, for fixes or new features -- whenever there's an MR, it's discussed and merged. As to the Unraid template, I'm not the author of that (since I'm not an Unraid user), so I'm not sure whether anyone is maintaining it or not. 1 Quote Link to comment

Hello, Right, it's https://github.com/KatyPurry/unraid who created the template I believe. Although he seems to be still active (on GitHub at least), he didn't notice that you suddenly deleted https://raw.githubusercontent.com/alexta69/metube/master/favicon/android-chrome-384x384.png Or he does not care. Maybe it would be easier to ask you to put it back ? Quote Link to comment
