Hi!

Thanks for a great add-on!

Is there any way to change the cache/TMP-folder (from ...\addon_data\script.module.youtube.dl\tmp\)?
Is it perhaps possible to use a config file like the stand alone application can (...\AppData\Roaming\youtube-dl\config.txt)?
Or is it perhaps possible to change the cache/TMP-folder location by editing a .py-file?

Hi everyone,

I just wanna say that I had some hard time with key errors and not knowing how to retrieve titles and thumbnails, but now I found it. So for those interested here they are:

Code:
import YDStreamExtractor

YDStreamExtractor.disableDASHVideo(True) #Kodi.log says its deprecated!

Code:
url = "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yVv9dx88x0" #a youtube ID will work as well and of course you could pass the url of another site

vid = YDStreamExtractor.getVideoInfo(url,quality=1) #quality is 0=SD, 1=720p, 2=1080p and is a maximum

stream_url = vid.streamURL() #This is what Kodi (XBMC) will play

title = vid.selectedStream()['title'] # this gives the title string

thumbnail = vid.selectedStream()['thumbnail'] # this gives the thumbnail string url

Hello,

Code:
url= 'https://openload.co/embed/5VuUxHSVhug/'

vid = YDStreamExtractor.getVideoInfo(openloadurl,resolve_redirects=True)

stream_url = vid.streamURL()

Can't get the stream_url. I have recognised that the code for openload.py changed in (https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/blob/efb6242916be93a1a99b66dc56d6439a6749bff2/youtube_dl/extractor/openload.py). Can you update the script.module.youtube.dl ??

Thank you

v16.1026.0 - ruuk - 2016-10-28

Version 16.1026.0

Changes:

Updated youtube-dl core to 2016.10.26

On Kodi repo, pending mirror updates.

WHY NOT RECORD CHANNEL ADULT YOUTUBE THE PLUGIN-DL ?

RE: [Module] youtube-dl - multi-site playable URL resolver - kees667 - 2016-12-12

Generic question: I have this plugin installed but don't recall installing it. Perhaps it came with something I installed but can't figure that out. cleaning up old addons ans skins.
Running latest librelec with (only) estuary skin. When I attempt to uninstall this one I get (for me cryptic) the message: "youtube-dl control is used by the following installed addons Kodi65 Library - this addon can't be uninstalled.

Don't seem to have an addon called Kodi65 library, is that some kind of system function and this part of kodi or estuary now?

RE: [Module] youtube-dl - multi-site playable URL resolver - otaranda - 2017-01-12

I'm tring to utilize youtube.dl module using examples posted in this thread:

Code:
import YDStreamExtractor

    url = 'https://vk.com/video-76470207_456252512'

    vid = YDStreamExtractor.getVideoInfo(url,resolve_redirects=True

    stream_url = vid.streamURL()

The issue I have I got NonType object in return to getVideoInfo call and some Kodi errors in error log

Quote:NOTICE: script.module.youtube.dl: ERROR: _getYoutubeDLVideo() failed
NOTICE: script.module.youtube.dl: _getYoutubeDLVideo() failed::getVideoInfo (364) - attribute of type 'NoneType' is not callable

Is anything I'm missing or doing wrong?

BWT, I tryed youtube-dl call from terminal and it successfully returned link to that video

Is there a way to incorporate this into IPTV simple client or other front end? It would be great to add youtube live channel in a single common guide with another Kodi PVR client add-on for OTA/cable channels.

Did you get this resolved Huh

I have youtube-dl and I cannot get rid of it.

@huffenator:

The youtube-dl addon is a module that can be a dependency of other add-ons. As the dialog in your screenshot is saying, the Kodi65 add-on requires it as a dependency. If you want to get rid of the youtube-dl addon you need to first remove Kodi65. This has nothing to do with the youtube-dl add-on.

Hi

I still get " plugin.video.youtube needed to preview discoverable content" on my browser when I access kodi via Arch web interface. Update youtube.dl via your repo to 15.318.0. Kodi still insists on updating to 16.1026.0 via Kodi repo. I have applied both but Kodi's second.

What can be the problem?
