Question

Is there a way to specify the youtube-dl.conf config file without using the command? I'm using sinusbot with pterodactyl which uses docker and the /etc/youtube-dl.conf directory does not exist, but i have to use the youtube-dl.conf file to specify the --force-ipv4 argument and --cookies because i'm getting the 429 error "Too many requests"

hi?

A few potential solutions;
If you can create the /etc directory, even if it doesn't exist by default, try that.
If you can specify the arguments in question at the command line, try that.
If you can't do either of those, fork the source code and make the necessary modifications to alter the default youtube-dl.conf directory to one of your choosing.
