Updating to latest makes some subscriptions fail about ytdl-sub HOT 7 CLOSED

Incoming fix in the linked PR. I would still remove check_formats since it significantly increases the metadata scraping time, but maybe it does something I'm not aware of?

I don't remember exactly, but this seemed to fix an issue I had a long time ago where sometimes a download would just fail. I found an issue - in this repo or some other - saying that check_formats fixes it, at the cost of making the operation take longer to finish. I haven't tried without it since then. I can give it a shot.

Many thanks for looking into this! I can confirm it seems to work again :)

@krafs Seems like a ytdl-sub issue, can you send me which python version you're using? python --version should do the trick

I should probably have mentioned, but I am using the Docker image ghcr.io/jmbannon/ytdl-sub, with docker-compose:

services:
  ytdl-sub:
    image: ghcr.io/jmbannon/ytdl-sub:latest
    container_name: ytdl-sub
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/Amsterdam
      - DOCKER_MODS=linuxserver/mods:universal-cron
    volumes:
      - ./ytdl-sub:/config
      - ./videos/youtube/shows:/tv_shows
    restart: unless-stopped

My running container reports Python 3.11.6.

Finally got around to trying to reproduce, but no luck @krafs
Are you still getting an error on this one?

from ytdl-sub.

Actually I take that back, I reproduced it by setting "check_formats": True
What does this option do?
