Skipping item 47 (duplicate of item 9) is OK, but it would be nice to still save 48 as 48, not as 47 or 46. Same for 41 (duplicate of item 1).

Thanks for replying!
Here is an example: watch?v=-PdfhW2zMvY
This is an 1080p which is downloaded correctly via online converter, but JD only gets the 720p.
This happens mostly on older videos.

[Jiaz]

@davidr17: caused by missing mpd support, only 360/720p are visible to JD

[Jiaz]

@SMS: with next update, JD should also count dupes and thus have correct position

[Bielzgt20]

Everything is fine now.

LinkGrabber no longer shows YouTube video names. Instead it names the videos by video quality.

[Jiaz]

@mlp: please provide example links, no changes from our side

[Xirix]

The same thing is happening to me, no actual video name is appearing, on any links.

Here's some example links anyway : **External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**
**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

and a log entry in case it's useful : 24.11.20 15.26.14 <--> 25.11.20 22.48.22 jdlog://1537425302851/ It'll be at the very end, I literally just tried to grab some youtube videos and noticed it wasn't naming them properly.

Hi, my problem is that since yesterday almost all links from Youtube are no longer with the names in the videos thumbnails etc, and the files are all dispersed in the linkgrabber.
Here is the print from my PC, thanks and I hope for a solution, Bye.-

[enjikari]

This has to have happened within the last hour or so, but whenever I grab YouTube videos it's not showing the video name, just the details (like 720p_60fps etc etc).

[Trilandian]

Same problem here.
Oddly enough, I tried it several times, and on one of those times it did grab the video name properly, as though during that moment, whatever the problem was went away, but right after that, it came back again.
Hasn't worked since.

[Jiaz]

Please provide example links! And whats your geo location? Looks like some changes are getting rolled out slowly

[Trilandian]

This is the video I grabbed that didn't work, then worked, then didn't: **External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

My location is Israel.

Please create a debug log. Enable Settings->Advanced Settings->Log.debugmodeenabled
restart JDownloader. Do not download anyhing (keeps log small) try to add the link, once it fails to grab title, create log and post logID here, see https://support.jdownloader.org/Know...d-session-logs

Here are 5 examples, but I ran down a list of subscriptions and tried several more (most of which I had already downloaded just an hour or so before my post):

**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**
**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**
**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**
**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**
**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**



So the "video title"(?) of the uploaded video is missing from YouTube videos in JD2. Hope this helps.

Please create logs like described, still unable to reproduce the issue

[Trilandian]

It actually succeeded again in grabbing that video, along with another it wouldn't grab before, but it still doesn't work everywhere.

Just want to add that I'm experiencing the issue with missing filenames as well. From experience, this is not a new thing but now it happens the majority of the time. The issue appears to be with the pre-defined variables.

Example link: **External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

Some more info that might prove useful. I have an event script that automatically queries and downloads youtube videos using the JD API. For the past few weeks, I noticed that some links would randomly come through without a name. I tried to correct the issue myself by updating the name manually, but I then noticed that a lot of the time, that didn't work either, making me believe this is an issue with JD and not the plugin.

My filename format in the plugin is set to:

*CHANNELNAME* - *DATE[yyyy-MM-dd]* - *VIDEO_NAME*.*EXT*

And my filenames would sometimes come out as:

- -

As you can tell, the variables resolved to empty string.

These are 2 functions I wrote in my script to try and work around the issue:

function getNameSafe(link) {
    var newName = link.getName();
    var count = 0;

    // Try to avoid JD bug
    while (newName == "-  - " && count < 100) {
        newName = link.getName();
        count++;
    }

    return newName;
}

function setNameSafe(link, newName) {
    var count = 0;

    // Try to avoid JD bug
    while (getNameSafe(link) != newName && count < 100) {
        link.setName(newName);
        count++;
    }

    return newName;
}

The idea was to try up to 100 times to get/set the name correctly. But, teven this didn't work and my logs were very confusing. Here is another snippet of my script that is responsible for this renaming:

var newName = getNameSafe(crawledLink);
log("Setting new name to: " + newName);
setNameSafe(existingLinkByUrl, newName);
log("Done, name set to: " + existingLinkByUrl.getName());

The logs from that snippet made no sense sometimes, here's a recent one:

Setting new name to: vTuned garage - 2020-11-23 - Stripping the Interior on my McLaren 720s - Episode 6.mkv
Done, name set to: -  - .mkv

As you can see, the getNameSafe() function correctly got the proper filename but setNameSafe() failed to set it properly. I have also seen the reverse happen. These functions use the standard event scripter functions, so shouldn't be affected by the Youtube plugin itself. This is what led me to believe the bug was somewhere else.

Hope this helps, happy to provide any more info if needed.

Update:

Just tried grabbing about 10 YT videos, 5 or which I had the no-name issue with last night. All names are present now. Hopefully this was a one-off issue. I'll keep at it with different/new videos today and tomorrow. If the issue returns I'll reply in this thread.

[Jiaz]

@All: Found the issue for missing title/xy and will be fixed with next update.
unfortunately I'm not finished with the changes yet so the update will be released by tomorrow. sorry for the delay

Understood, and thanks.

Was just about to post that I spoke too soon - tried to grand 2 new videos, but they grabbed with no names as well.

Glad a fix is coming. Thanks again for looking into it.

[Jiaz]

Fix will come tomorrow morning, sorry for the delay :(

[rapido]

Was habe ich falsch gemacht und wie kann ich das Problem lösen? Herzlichen Dank vorab!

@Jiaz
Wie gut dass Du imstande bist alles zu fixen.
Herzlichen Dank!!!

[mz168]

Not seeing this being reported but it has gone on sporadically for a while and about yesterday it becomes completely wild.

This used to work:
1. *USER*-*CHANNEL*-*PLAYLIST_NAME*
2. *CHANNEL*_*DATE[yyyy/MM/dd]*_*TITLE* (*QUALITY*, *Duration[minutes]*).*EXT*

Now
1. *USER* still works
2. Now I get a bunch of these "__ (720p 30fps, ).mp4"

The tags aren't picked up. Either the tags handle changed? or JD failed to grab or pass the data???

It's incredibly hard to clean up a bunch of past grabbed links. This is pretty much a show stopper. Pls advice.

[Trilandian]

Glad you have it figured out.
Less than a day is hardly a delay, so no worries.

SOLVED!!!!! THANKS A LOT.-

[Jiaz]

Update is live

[raptor2003]

Too bad I'm throttled by too many requests right now, can't test it now

[Jiaz]

Try a reconnect/different IP?

It’s running on a dedicated server, I can’t change the IP

[Jiaz]

Then, wait and trink some tea

[plip]

It's working now

Only problem is, how do I find the videos that got captured wrong while the problem existed?

Videos I had tried to linkgrab while it was working wrong, they didn't show up at the bottom of the linkgrabber list when grabbing them. And they still don't show up at the bottom of the linkgrabber list when grabbing them again now.

I think it's because those links already exist in linkgrabber from when there was the problem. I don't know how to find them in linkgrabber because I don't know what they would have been called when they were being caught incorrectly.

Actually, is there a way to remove a specific url from linkgrabber, if you know the url but don't know the name linkgrabber gave it?

[Trilandian]

After installing the update, the issue disappeared.
Thanks.

Thanks again for your diligence!

[raptor2003]

Works perfectly today. Thank you

Quick question: what is the purpose of the Metadata enabled option?

So CHANNEL and TITLE work now but USER and USERNAME both take on the value of Channel ID.

Should I change USER to something else that works??thanks for the quick fix.
