Hi,
I try downloading a playlist and get the following error:
There was an error downloading the target Download: DownloadVideo: ERROR: u'' is not a valid URL. Set --default-search "ytsearch" (or run youtube-dl "ytsearch:" ) to search YouTube
I get this on every playlist I tried.
Does anyone have an Idea whats going on?
Looks like a great project - following up from a reddit comment.
From a quick look around, it shouldn't be too bad to lean on youtube-dl if the -f option can be exposed https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/blob/master/README.md#video-format-options
Acceptance criteria:
When checking channels, youtube-dl process dies with exit code 1
Further debugging inside of the container I see this when trying to get channel contents:

Would be nice if we could add --sleep-interval option to the get channels calls, or throttle subsequent youtube-dl processes by a similar interval.
When running Check on YT Channel, process fails with exit code 1
For this example, I used Linus Tech Tips channel. I add his channel, but do not mark to do initial download (only want new episodes for example). Log fails with this:

The Docker image unfortunately does not support the ARM architecture which means that the image does not work on a Raspberry Pi.
Describe the solution you'd like
A Dockerfile.armhf :)
Describe the bug
Channel has 500+ videos, I have set it up to watch for new uploads and checked download full channel. Downloaded about 75 videos and then decided to stop, unsure how to trigger it to continue.
To Reproduce
Maybe try pulling large channel?
Expected behavior
Download all channel and maybe add force download button?
Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.
Desktop (please complete the following information):
Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.
Project looks good, but a few useful things could make it great.
Naming Convention field, for path / file format.
Single Playlist support, for monitoring a single playlist.
Detect Playlists on a Channel, and allow selecting which ones to monitor.
Simple database (SQLite) just to track video download history (could be used to prevent redownloads, keep history and other useful features)
Maybe allow exposing a few YouTube-dl options.
I would like GoAutoYT to be able 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.
For example:
/channels/"Channel name"/"Name of playlist"/"Name of video"
And videos not part of a playlist to be stored directly in the root "Channel name" folder.
Able to scan the directory and make sure each video is present and to fill in the gaps even if they are randomly missing.
Could be achieved with a script that does that sort of thing.
A list of the videos on a channel and the ability to skip.
Describe the bug
The downloaded files have no audio tracks.
To Reproduce
Download a playlist with the options "Video and audio", "mp4" and "best".
Expected behavior
The audio track is downloaded.
Tested running the docker image on Docker Desktop for Windows, using Linux containers.
Additional context
The run command, from the app log:
/usr/local/bin/youtube-dl --ignore-errors -f bestvideo[ext=mp4] -o downloads/playlists/%(playlist)s/%(title)s.%(ext)s https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=XXXXXXX (Playlist ID redacted)
Also, a suggestion: since most people will want to customize their youtube-dl command, why not provide an option to specify a custom command?
An option to delete download history or to clear the visible logs on the videos tab.
Describe the bug
Cannot download or add any channels or playlists.
To Reproduce
Install docker image
Open webinterface
None of the options work, even stuff like saving the interval
Expected behavior
A success message when adding the channel :)

Environment
latest stable image off the docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/xiovv/go-auto-yt
Also if the app should still work what could be going wrong?
And a last question:
What are the different options we can enter in the output path?
We can get some options ( e.g. %(uploader)s ) from the default example but are there other options? Maybe the quality of the video?
Re-write this project with Next.js and Go
I think you could add a lot of utility to this tool if you supported a way for the user to compose their own youtube-dl command, with whatever switches/additions they desired.
This would allow the user to configure whether to download thumbnails, subtitles, formats, etc.
(This would also instantly fill the following current feature requests: 67, 66, 42)
I think your goal with this may be to make a super simple tool for folks who just want the basics, and adding a bunch of UI buttons and toggles to expose youtube-dl's huge swath of options is not really in line with that.
But having a single 'advanced' toggle that allows direct access to the youtube-dl command allows you to support the full range of youtube-dl's functionality with minimal effort, for the power users who want to use it.
Thanks for your work on this! I've enjoyed playing around with it, and would definitely use it full time if this feature is added.
Edit: If you allowed a custom command per 'channel' this could also allow support of any site youtube-dl supports.
Describe the bug
Logs show error, and UI doesn't allow updating check interval.

Describe the bug
I'm getting an error which states There was an error downloading the target Download: DownloadVideo: ERROR: u'' is not a valid URL. Set --default-search "ytsearch" (or run youtube-dl "ytsearch:" ) to search YouTube
To Reproduce
On the playlist tab and using the enter custom youtube-dl output use %(uploader)s [%(channel_id)s]/%(playlist_title)s [%(playlist_id)s]/%(playlist_index)s - %(title)s [%(id)s].%(ext)s and wait for the playlist to download.
Expected behavior
The playlist should download and enter into the completed download history so it can be automatically monitored.
Desktop (please complete the following information):
Screenshots
Additional context
Although the error appears which prevents go-auto-yt from seeing the download as "completed" everything downloads correctly with the correct file/folder names.
Sometimes instead of showing the error directly, it will also just be stuck spinning even after all downloads are also complete.
I contacted XiovV on reddit and discussed a bit about building Docker image for this. Now that I have successfully built it (and it is also quite minimal, just 134 MB), how do I submit this Dockerfile?

Using the docker version of the app when i try and update the playlist refresh time to 6 hours (well hours in general) i am getting the following error:
"There was an error parsing json: json: cannot unmarshal number into Go struct field CheckingIntervalPayload.CheckingInterval of type string"
Entering time in minutes seems fine though.
Note. I did create a xml template for the docker version and added it to Unraid store app. I will add issues/bugs that the users of Unraid find.
Acceptance criteria:
I've been thinking about doing an entire rewrite of Golty for a while, but a few days ago when I started doing the rewrite I noticed that yotube-dl's repository has been taken down due to DMCA takedown notice by RIAA.
Golty is based on youtube-dl, it can still be used but the current version of youtube-dl will eventually stop working. I decided to postpone the rewrite until this situation is handled.
I have this running in UnRaid docker and it downloaded the full channels fine. However, it never finds any new videos in the watched channels. I have changed the check interval and it is the same behavior each time. I did have to manually set the interval in the json file because it only saved for the first channel and all others had a blank check interval. i have included screenshots of setup and log. I am newer to unraid but willing to try anything.

Acceptance criteria:
Having the ability to get notifications would be a really cool feature! notify comes to mind
I haven;t been able to run your program yet, sry. Can I adjust the download path for each channel? That would be great! It would greatly benefit media solutions like Plex that depend on the directory structure to sort/present their content in a structure way
A fresh install of the docker image is no longer starting without manual creation of the config files.
The error given by docker logs:
time="2019-12-18T04:25:17Z" level=error msg="database.load: could not read file: open config/playlists.json: no such file or directory"
time="2019-12-18T04:25:17Z" level=fatal msg="<nil>"
In order to start the docker image I have to recreate all 3 config json files manually.
By adding a playlist to the playlist download section - no costum path entered, downloaded videos will be stored as followed:
/app/downloadsYTUSERNAME/PLAYLIST/[...]
Instead of /app/downloads/YTUSERNAME/PLAYLIST/[...]
Running as Docker Container xiovv/go-auto-yt:stable
I am new here and having an issue with this application. I am running it in a docker in Unraid. Most things appear to work well including downloading of full channels. I unfortunately am unable to play the files that are being downloaded on any platform. I have moved the files into folders that are accessible and tried opening in VLC with CCCP installed as well as other players with no success.
Let me know if you require further information to help me.

youtube-dl supports downloading from lots of other websites.
Describe the solution you'd like
support for other websites, mainly soundcloud and mixcloud
Describe alternatives you've considered
my own bash scripts, support in go-auto-yt would be good :-)
Additional context
the first question is probably; would the current UI support this or would significant changes be needed?
It would be nice to have a kind of auto cleanup functionality, e.g. deleting a downloaded video after x days, months, years
cool project!
Especially for docker containers, it would be useful to have some basic authentication support (to protect from abuse) as well as supporting reverse proxy headers.
edit: I just saw on roadmap 'login screen', as this could be form-based login,
Are channel downloads currently supported?

Describe the solution you'd like
I just started using Floatplane Downloader (https://github.com/Inrixia/Floatplane-Downloader) and while this software is working there are some improvements I would like to see. For one, a web GUI would be a great addition. Also, at the moment it creates episode numbers for compatibility with Plex which is great. However, the numbering of episodes is not chronological. My idea was to create a complete database of all video files and their metadata, and then using this to lookup information when downloading the video. Similar to the grabbing of metadata from TMDB by Radarr. To create this database I was looking at potential databases available from youtube uploads.
This is, of course, a completely different project but I thought it might be an interesting idea to add this to go-auto-yt. Especially if more youtubers join the Floatplane platform.
Additional context
Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.
What is missing over the manual YT-DL over CLI route is being able to easily get the thumbnails, captions and other metadata.
Acceptance criteria:
Settings form:
On version 5.1.0 it doesn't save anything I add on the web interface into the configs.
Can't see any errors in logs apart from it reading the blank file when navigating to that page.
If I use "Enter custom youtube-dl output" and I use spaces like in the examples is not going to work.
/videos/%(release_date)s %(title)s [%(id)s].%(ext)s
or
/videos/%(uploader)s - %(title)s.%(ext)s
If I replace the spaces with underscores, it works.
It would be cool if there was an option to send blob output to the browser and/or a clickable link to download the file over HTTP in the history section.
Would be great for grabbing video/audio for mobile devices.
In the video tab, it would be nice to have a text box instead of a text input, so we can paste multiple lines of video links.
If these videos would be downloaded simultaneously (maybe 3-5 at a time) would be a huge plus.
I have seen other webgui and yours looks very good. Congrats!
