For example, if I create a docker template for an already existing docker image (not created by me), I won't be able to do more for that image than forward your report or request to the owner of the project.

Thank you very much 🙂

First, thank you for this!  This is what I've been looking for!  The files transfer to Plex nicely with metadata, poster, etc. Now I can set it and forget it and use plex to watch vs. YT! Also, just an FYI, but the template has the resolution as 1080p.  Tried this and the dler pulled 4k.  Changed it 1080 and it's dling 1080p files now.

This was just another docker image I wanted to try, but I still preffer to use the one called: tubesync. You can find it in the CA section.

Hey guys, 

 

I am hoping to give this a try but I wanted to confirm I have this setup correctly. The instructions are a okay but not really clear. In my channels.txt list I have the following 

 

I hope this is correct. I just want videos from a single channel. 

 

 

And in the Args.conf I left everything alone and added the last line ... is the correct way to do it? I ONLY want to download the new season of Backstage Dodgers and not all the other seasons.  

 

 

Let me know if I am missing something or if I did this wrong.  

Bueller? Bueller? Bueller? 😁

Thanks for this template, working wonders and very easy to set up!

I have a suggestion for an additional feature. Is it possible to get a log or progress bar so we can keep track of how the downloads are going?

After updating to 6.11 I began to have issues with yt-dlp based containers (YouTube-DL & TubeArchivist).

In case any one else started to get the [errno -2] issue after updating, I found after a lot of hair pulling and tweaking that Docker was not resolving the DNS properly to the containers (in Bridge Mode), and they were thus unable to resolve URL's.

 

Manually editing the /etc/docker/daemon.json file to include the following line of code allows the containers to again resolve URL's.

 

"dns": ["8.8.8.8","8.8.4.4","1.1.1.1"]

 

The contents of my daemon.json looks like this for context;

 

{
    "runtimes": {"nvidia": {"path": "/usr/bin/nvidia-container-runtime","runtimeArgs": []}},
    "dns": ["8.8.8.8","8.8.4.4","1.1.1.1"]
}

 

I also managed to automate the code insertion due to the lack of persistence of config files in the OS, by adding the following line to my go file in the /config folder on the USB. This line should be at the start gf the go file so it is executed BEFORE docker launches.

 

# Fix the docker DNS issue
sed -i '0,/{/a\    "dns": ["8.8.8.8","8.8.4.4","1.1.1.1"],' /etc/docker/daemon.json

 

 

My entire go file looks like this for context;

 

#!/bin/bash

# Fix the docker DNS issue
sed -i '0,/{/a\    "dns": ["8.8.8.8","8.8.4.4","1.1.1.1"],' /etc/docker/daemon.json

# Start the Management Utility
/usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

# Chip drivers
modprobe jc42
modprobe k10temp
modprobe w83627ehf
modprobe fam15h_power

# Enlarge the LOG partition (because Dynamix System Stats needs at least 186Mb, default LOG is 128Mb)
mount -o remount,size=384m /var/log

# Binhex (Container update)
# curl -o '/usr/bin/runc' -L 'https://github.com/binhex/arch-packages/raw/master/static/x86-64/runc' && chmod +x '/usr/bin/runc'

 

Hope that helps somebody.

I have just install and started to use this docker. How do I remove (delete) completed downloads? Windows 10 returns a "file access denied" and needs "user\911" permission??

Is there no option in the docker to remove completed downloads? TIA

Hia!

 

My YouTube-DL doesn't have an icon

 

I'm getting this to the log-file:

YouTube-DL: Could not download icon https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SmartPhoneLover/unraid-docker-templates/main/templates/icons/youtube-dl.png

...and getting a 404 when looking for the file.

 

No biggie, but could you have a look or tell me what I'm doing wrong?
