Sorry for answering this late ( being really busy irl ).

All will be fixed pretty soon, it just takes a little bit more time because of holidays and such.

Edited December 27, 20196 yr by Jidovu Marius Adrian

I've just got back from holidays and the docker is working pretty good now.

One thing I have started to notice is that every once and a while (maybe when it does it's check for new videos) the docker will consume 100% CPU on my server (As shown on the dashboard) and slow down everything else.

This has happened before though while pre-clearing disks and it wasn't the CPU that was maxing it, it was the IO wait time increasing.

It goes straight back to normal when i kill the auto-yt docker.

 

What information can I provide to help diagnose it?

You can open an issue on github here.

Is there a way to download a youtube channel and sort the videos in folders for each playlist they are in?

I've tried youtube-dl outputs like /channel/%(uploader)s/%(playlist)s/%(title)s.%(ext)s, but it just puts everythin in a subfolder called "Uploads from (and the channel name)".

 

I've got the output to work when downloading only one specific playlist in the Playlist tab, but not in the Channels tab.

I would like if it's possible to have GoAutoYT to listen to specific youtube channels and download any new video and put them in the corresponding playlist folder that the video was published to.

docker just updated this morning and now i'm getting this error message.

Do you have the json config files in the config folder with the read and write permissions?

I've just updated the docker as well and i'm getting the same error message. Docker doesn't even start.

I also removed the image completely and re-downloaded it just in case, still same issue. I checked the permissions on the json config files and they are exactly the same as what's set in the docker config.

I suspect there is some part of the channel listing that is causing it, if you don't have too many entries already you could try removing the entries and adding them back if it starts normally.

I am sorry but I can not help much if at all for  a couple of months since I moved in another country right now.

Until I will get everything back to normal post the issues you have on github here.

I am sorry for not being able to help much right now.

everytime i try to ad  a channel, i get this error...

i can't even start the docker at all. i've just done a new install, Squid helped me with a port problem in another thread, but the container won't do anything when i click Start. 

I successfully downloaded a video, but was unable to move the file out of the destination directory. Perhaps it's a permission issue on the file?

Have you changed anything to the docker template?

Normally you should be able to move/delete the files inside the main folder but not the folder itself.

Are channel downloads currently supported? I get

There was an error while checking playlists: CheckAll: CheckNow: From c.GetMetadata(): ERROR: vP0ZfcuiR2c: YouTube said: Unable to extract video data 

when I try to download channels.

Goautoyt is being completely rewritten and will come under the name Golty and I can not give any ETA because it will be released as version 1.0 to be stable and have as many suggested features as possible.

That issue might not be fixed on this version ( I am speaking about Goautoyt not Golty). Best I can do right now is to add it to the bug list.

I am sorry I can not help more but right now I am stuck in Germany for a month or so because I had an accident to the left hand and I am using only my right hand and I am also using a laptop instead of my desktop.

Having an issue with the permissions for this container. I'm trying to set the GID to 100 just like the rest of my containers but it keeps settings the permissions on all it's files to GID 101. Any idea what's going on with this? I see the below in the logs when starting the container ...

groupmod: GID '100' already exists

but I don't see this error for other groups that exist on the host, I'm guessing this is something it's trying to do inside the container. How can I run this container with GID 100?

With Youtube URL's now changed, has anyone figured out how to download a full channel when 'Usernames' are no longer being accepted?

I would switch to youtube-dl material

It's exactly what I did!

Getting a lot of HTTP 429 errors in the last week from this docker. This docker worked for several days and was able to download videos just fine before this.

 

I am still able to use something like tartube from a windows pc and download videos using youtube-dl. No 429 errors on that. Both systems are behind the same public IP.

For anyone having permissions issues when trying to move the files after they download I suggest you use the following variables in the docker config. This replicates the variables from a LinuxServer IO type docker.
