Migrate to youtube-dlc #123
Comments
We are not using Youtube-dl anymore since 8efae82, we may be reimplementing it if I notice too much changes from Youtube interface so I don't need to maintain the 'data fetch API' which is a modified version of the one used by youtube-local. |
Don't we use youtube-dl to fetch streams currently? It might be a wise idea to use youtube-dl to have lesser concerns with YouTube related changes such as #120. (NewPipe has dealt with 3 changes Invidious has 2 dealt with in the past 2 weeks) |
No, we currently don't depend on Youtube-dl in any way. But as I said, maybe it would be wise to use it in order to avoid future problems with Youtube changes. |
That might be wise, I do see occasional errors(with no server-side logs) when Yotter tries to fetch the stream links. |
Will be testing and fixing the following days. Will close this issue when we think that it works all ok and it is fine to use as definitive. |
From what I can see, it works fine 👍 |
Maybe we can close this issue? Do we agree that it is working fine? |
Yep :) |

youtube-dlc is a fork of youtube-dl which is updated a lot more frequently and has a lot of features that youtube-dl doesn't have (for example, geo-blocking bypassing)
