Not downloading channel data / .strm

[MagnuBn]

Hi,

Great project! I do however have some issues getting starting..

I have installed ytdlp2STRM using the the "Windows" guide in the Readme. I added a channel to the youtube config and tried to run the "youtube script":

This is the youtube settings:

And this is the log I get from running the script:

$ python cli.py --media youtube --params direct
30/07/2024 21:57:13
Running youtube with ['direct'] params
Preparing channel https://www.youtube.com/@aragusea
/@aragusea
Working channel URL: https://www.youtube.com//@aragusea/videos
Getting channel ID...
Generating name folder...
Getting name...
Getting description...
Getting thumbnails...
Getting videos...
$

In the ./media/youtube folder, I only see one file: "Adam Ragusea.description". Should not a channel folder with more data be created? Also, the channel also released a video 8 days ago, should it not create a .strm file that Jellyfin can pickup?

Thanks a lot!

I found a solution! Firstly, I added a few more channels to the list. Then the log said it created directories, but I could not find them. The solution was to provide a complete path to the strm_output_folder, not only "/media/youtube", but "C:\ProgramData\ytdlp2STRM\media\Youtube". Now it downloads the .strm files!
It seems the "/media/youtube" path was sufficient to get the .description files, but not the complete channel data.
