Actual git still worked. I was able to git pullI also figured out a way to launch the script using bash - needed to export $SHELL - the only way it worked. I could not update yt-dlp to the latest version - the latest I could install is 2023.06.22 from the side PPA repo. Official Ubuntu repo provides 2023.03 and pip breaks my system with compatibility issues that I don’t have desire to troubleshoot. I could try in the future downloading their binary but I don’t like when stuff doesn’t auto-update. The preferences worked this time and I was able to save them.
yt-dlp gives me an error every time I try to browse either Trending or do a search. I have a TV with a cross and 1 option to Abort Selection.
I have a question: is the script dependent on having browser cookies? Because I don’t have any of the browsers installed on a headless machine. ANd I think that is what yt-dlp wasn’t happy about…
