Can you review and commit it? I would rather not have to start dealing with requesting commit access and I think it should be reviewed by someone who knows Java and the codebase anyway.

Obviously, a better option is to have the user specify preferred tracks, but that's considerably more complicated, and considering it took me this long to manage these few lines of code, I doubt I will ever get to dealing with that.

This is what I wrote back then for how this could work(June 2023, so not quite a year and a half):

I expect a reasonable UI for something like this is to have the user set their preferred track names.

For instance, a user might have the following as their preference (in order of preference):
English
En
English (Original)
English original
Spanish

If none of the tracks in the video match any of these, show a popup asking the user to select one of the tracks in the video (and possibly also have the option of editing the preference in the popup to include the new track name).

@YNN: with next plugin update you will be able to specify list of preferred language thanks for your input on how lanuage is provided in there!

Your pattern is invalid , odd number of *
must be

"*3D* *360* *VIDEO_NAME* (*H*p_*FPS*fps).*EXT*"

Next update of JDownloader will try to auto fix/heal those wrong pattern
It now happens because the replacement has been optimized and now such errors will result in broken output.

Good to know. It looks like I actually started working on this exactly a year ago and did provide the exact details of the JSON data back then, as well as suggestions for what to do. The reply I got back then was that the issue was not with figuring out the data, but doing the implementation work, so it's nice to see it wasn't actually that complicated. It took me this long because I didn't get around to it very often, and when I did, I had to review notes and try to get everything in my mind and by that point I usually ran out of time. I suppose it's also possible I ran into the same issues I had now, but I didn't check.

I also suggested then having the YouTube discussions in a dedicated subforum with a separate thread for each issue and was told that "We have our reasons to keep all YT related posts in one thread." I don't know what those reasons are, so I can't comment on them, but certainly if all of these multiple audio tracks posts were in a single place it would have been easier for people to find the posts (rather than getting replies like "read the last X pages of this thread") and it would have been much easier to see the relevant technical content. I will again suggest that there are some clear advantages to having the YouTube discussions in separate threads in their own subforum.


Also, important note - I realized I haven't tested my change on a video with a single audio track. That might be a potential failure point and I don't have time to check now.

Would not have helped any at all. Threads don't help with time/mood/fun challenges. In the end I just saw your post with the json and just took a look to see if I can add it easily or if it means larger rework

Don't worry, I do not evaluate default flag and tested changes.

It was not easy as I had to check how to incorporate language in existing variants/types....without breaking existing stuff/files for all other users

[johno4566]

iit should be simlpe way to fix this without having to re add them all again

i forgot to chnage the setting to make it download the best qualty of each video


bu i have nocticed i heap ofd videos that i juts noticed i got m more than one file of each vido is thier a way to sort out remove the doubles of video link s that are allready in the link grabber

without havibng to re add them all

[pspzockerscene]

Merged YT threads.

@johno4566
Please rephrase your post. It is unclear to me what you are talking about.

[johno4566]

done

[pspzockerscene]

There is no option to remove "duplicates by filename" with one click.
Here are your options:

• Do that by hand
• Create an EventScripter script that does this for you
• Properly configure your YT plugin to only return one/"the best" quality for each item, then delete all existing items and re-add them

Hello! For a few weeks now I've been getting a ''Temporarily Unavailable'' Error with some of the YouTube videos I've been trying to download. Does anyone have any information regarding how to fix this issue? It's been a real problem because 7 out of every 10 videos I download gets this error...

[Jiaz]

@SNDjANN: Please check if those videos are age restricted/require login (eg in private/incognito tab). if yes, this is known issue and work in progress

[SNDjANN]

They are Login-Required indeed. Thank you, friend, for clarifying this for me. I'll patiently wait for a fix on the issue

[Jiaz]

@YNN: language support is available. But you will have to reset Settings->Plugins->youtube.com , the reset button and restart JDownloader. This is required so LNG is now part of the filename pattern and also of the variant (dropdown) pattern. In *new/change variant* dialog, you now also have new column language (might have to enable it first).

[maipoohsMelsFUnny]

Youtube plugin is not accessible under settings. The plugin has been reset and JDownloader restarted. Known issue or just me?

[badintense]

Yeah, I got it working. It has been good all week now. Finally!

I can no longer download private videos that I uploaded.
It says "Temp unavailable (youtube.com)".
I can log in to my account using cookies.
Please fix this.

[goratnik]

I want to report an issue with file naming:

when package contains subtitles, their copy is created under name of the video with a language suffix, separately from the original download, to make it easier for video players to find these subtitles. The problem is, the copy is created using default naming scheme, not the actual name of the video file.

Example: **External links are only visible to Support Staff**...
Original package contents, using default schemes:

Lawn Bubble [yt;v=O8eQLavRaXM;date=2015.07.19].(360p 30fps).mp4
Lawn Bubble [yt;v=O8eQLavRaXM;date=2015.07.19].(English_ASR).srt

I modify filenames to:

Lawn Bubble (water under grass) [yt;v=O8eQLavRaXM;date=2015.07.19].(360p 30fps).mp4
Lawn Bubble (water under grass) [yt;v=O8eQLavRaXM;date=2015.07.19].(English_ASR).srt

After download I have these files:

Lawn Bubble (water under grass) [yt;v=O8eQLavRaXM;date=2015.07.19].(360p 30fps).mp4
Lawn Bubble (water under grass) [yt;v=O8eQLavRaXM;date=2015.07.19].(English_ASR).srt
Lawn Bubble [yt;v=O8eQLavRaXM;date=2015.07.19].(360p 30fps).English.srt

Notice the last line. Package name does not have an influence on this behavior.

Problem with YouTube VIDEOS showing as TEMPORARILY UNAILABLE.
This has been consistent and repeatable over the last several days.

1) I can view the videos in a separate bowser (Firefox) and login session.
2) YT login cookies are stable, account shows valid (green) in status.
3) Links can be collected with accurate sizes in link collector.
4) If those link are then added to the downloads, most fail with temporarily unavailable.
5) Waiting does not solve the problem, the failure remains.

I have attached a log from a short session here (28.08.24 05.44.15 <--> 28.08.24 05.51.32 jdlog://3815411370661/)

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I just installed the latest version of JD2 after my initial post.

I haven't been able to test it properly, since I also now have the issue with downloading (some files show as unavailable, some say they require a login, some don't even get added to the linkgrabber), but it looks like the only way to control this is to to open the package in the linkgrabber window so you can see the video in the list, notice that the value in the variant column is a language you don't want and then select another variant. This is not ideal.

It would be really helpful if there was a way to select preferred languages, so that they are automatically the selected variant if they exist. At the very least, it would be useful to default to the variant defined as default in the JSON.


Edit:
I set the package name to "*LNG[DISPLAY]* - *VIDEO_NAME*", which does make it easier to see if the language is wrong. It also shows that JD picks a different language each time, which is certainly not desired behavior. For videos with a single audio track it looks like the *LNG[DISPLAY]* tag is empty.



Edit 2:
Now the downloads do work and it looks like this doesn't work correctly. I select the English variant, but the downloaded file has other audio.

[pspzockerscene]

To all of your prior points:
Agree.
Please wait for other staff members to work on this.
This was just the first take on the new language selection feature. Fine tuning will follow.

Here's an example link:
**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

It's a short, so it's faster to download and check. The other shorts there should also behave the same.
First, a different language track is selected each time the link is added.
Second, it looks like JD still downloads the incorrect audio track (it seems to be Arabic in this case, from the couple of times I tested it. This is the same behavior JD had until now and seems to just be the first language in the list). The file name does say English.

[enjikari]

This is more of a general curiosity question, please PLEASE do not take it as a "bugging you/rushing you" one:

Is this newest YouTube update/change a doozie? Is it proving a tough one to fix/allow JD2 to operate normally with? My current plan is to just keep all my vids in the que and wait for the next update (that hopefully, as it always has, sets JD back to normal operations), but I still wonder how tough it's getting, in general. Seems every other week/month some new YT change sets us back some, or rather halts the norm. Should us JD2 folks worry? As in - are these update coming close to making JD2 not able to work with it? As someone who has ZERO programming/coding/network knowledge, I ask all this in humble ignorance.

[pspzockerscene]

@enjikari
Don't worry.
Also there are plenty of other free tools available that can download from youtube.
Go e.g. to github.com and look for them

[Wheezer]

*Sigh*
New update installed, but same problem continues.

1) Can view videos fine.
2) YT cookies are good. All shows green.
3) Grab links for JD. They are grabbed fine.
4) Immediately attempt to download links.
5) All links fail with "Temporarily Unavailable"

We will let you know in this thread.
The last two pages contained quite some useful reports.
We are reading all posts and we will be coming back to you guys.

In the meantime there are a lot of other free YT download tools available you can use until JD related problems are resolved.

[pseudopod]

In regards to the YT "temporarily unavailable" error for videos that require sign-in:

Is leaving these videos queued in JD2 okay or will the links and cookies need to be re-added once the fix is in place? I've had a few links queued for a number of weeks (which are all "temporarily unavailable") and was just wondering if removing them and starting from scratch would be required when there is a fix available?

FWIW with YT recently ...

They seem to be on a tear to remove many types of videos for various reasons. Thus while they may have existed when you captured the links, they might be gone from the site now.

If it has been a while, say weeks, then you might want to use the "Check Online Status" or even "Open in Browser" to see if the linked video still exists.

Cheers!

[pseudopod]

All of the videos I speak of are still there on YT. I just wasn't sure if they would need to be re-added, along with the cookies when the fix is rolled out.

That question can only be answered once a fix for said issues is released.
