I am trying to download information about multiple YouTube videos as *txt files, but I am only getting the video description.
How can I add the url, number of views, date, number of likes/dislikes, the channel name & url and download this data aswell?
Thanks.

try to use the plugin,
there you will find 6 of your 7 *variables*
that you can use out of the box

@Cham089: I guess he/she doesn't know how to use them.
@amesant: At the moment some of those infos are available via packagizer or eventscripter. I will check on monday

    for (x in data) {
        if (data[x]) {
            content += x + " : " + data[x] + "\r\n";
        }
    }

    content += "\r\n" + readFile(description);

    getPath(description).delete();
    writeFile(description, content, true);

Hi, I'm sorry to revive this old topic. Still, I've been trying to use this script to embed the YouTube information (metadata) into the "Comments" section of the "Detail" Property for a downloaded YouTube file, but it doesn't do anything at all. I'm unsure if this script should be updated OR if it still works but I did something wrong.

I would appreciate if someone could help me with this

Thank you so much

I recommend posing your question in the EventScripter thread too:
