[ETP]

New release Today:
Please see original post in this thread for details & latest 2023MK1 pet.

[ETP]

NOTICE:

Please note that the four 1080p channels (Sky, Aljareera, France24 and CGTN ) have not been
functional since 16th Feb due to code changes made by YouTube.

The current version of youtube-dl ( 2021.12.17 ) will be updated shortly to accomodate those changes
and I will edit this post to attach or link to the next version once it has been issued and tested.

More background details can be found here:

https://youtube-dl.org/

https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues

A fix for the fork of youtube-dl ( yt-dlp 2023.02.17 ) has already been issued and can be found
in their changelog ( [extractor/youtube] Fix uploader_id extraction by bashonly )

https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releas ... 2023.02.17
.
EDIT: 24th Feb 2023 Please see next post for fix and pet.

[ETP]

EDIT: 24th Feb 2023 (Please see previous post)

The current version of youtube-dl ( 2021.12.17 ) has still not been updated but an unofficial nightly build from 23/02/23
containing the fix for the 4 YouTube channels is available. I am therefore issuing that in the form of a pet.

Simply install the pet, then test that all 10 channels work.

Oh, just read the above posts about updates.
For easyOS, I have updated the PET to 2023MK1 from the first post in this thread.

I added some translations to tvpanel.desktop:

I also changed Categories=X-Multimedia, but that's just my preference.

Note that EasyOS 5.0 will have the latest youtube-dl, 2023-02-23, see my blog post:

Hi Barry,
Thanks for your post and latest release of EasyOS.
In order to maintain compatibility of the the pet with both WoofQ & WoofCE I will
incorporate your modified .desktop file in future versions of the TV Panel pet.

The next version (2023MK2) will be issued later this week as I need to change CGTN for a
more reliable channel.

Thanks ETP!
So far, as of this time I could only get 6 channels.

Best regards,
Reynaldo

Hi @bugnaw333,

I see from your shot that you are missing the four YouTube hosted channels which suggests that you

did not install the modified youtube-dl package pet which is now needed in addition to the latest TV Panel pet.

Please see item 3 in the "Changes in This Version" section of the original post in this thread.

In any event can you please post the output of the following command issued in the terminal

Code: Select all

youtube-dl --version

[bugnaw333]

Hello @ETP,
Yep, you're correct! thanks again dude.

[step]

Thanks ETP! Your TV PANEL keeps working well in Fatdog64-813!

I did not install the youtube-dl update pet because I used @BarryK's update script, which he announced in
# blog: https://bkhome.org/news/202302/youtube- ... fixed.html
# script: https://github.com/bkauler/woofq/blob/e ... youtube-dl
(I modified the script slightly to keep old versions along the updated youtube-dl, as it's my preference).

How-to for Fatdog users who wish to enjoy ETP's TV PANEL:

1) Download the pets in the first post of this thread.
2) Convert them to Fatdog package format using rox right-click menu entry "convert pet..."
3) Install the packages
4) install mpv from GSlapt package manager
5) TV Panel (tvpanel) will be in the Multimedia section of the system menu.

ALTERNATIVE steps 1 and 2 for power users:
If you prefer to update youtube-dl with a script, get BarryK's script and update youtube-dl online with the script.
