not much you can do besides modify the source, however I think it should be hd by default. maybe youtube/ youtubedlp changed something -

@marph Do you still have issues, have you perhaps tried this?... -
@Steel The search string is the game name only + additional search terms, then there are flags for no-playlist, match-filter for duration, and quality. and thats about it. Everything after the -o flag is just where the video is saved. (game.VideoUrl at the end is nothing in this case, i think. youtube_srch.StartInfo.Arguments = $@" ""ytsearch:{CleanInput(game.Title)} {searchTerms}"" --no-playlist --match-filter ""duration <= {maxDuration}"" -f mp4{quality} -o ""\Videos\{CleanInput(game.Platform)}\{CleanInput(game.Title)}.%(ext)s"" {game.VideoUrl}"; Take note that if there is a video already in Launchbox, then it uses that link and doesn't do any searching. I didn't add platform-specific stuff because it was mainly just for Windows. You could try adding Amiga only to the search terms and see if that works. but I presume you've tried that.

Hi There, Try replacing the yt-dlp in the plugins folder with the latest version: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/latest/download/yt-dlp.exe

Hey man, I misunderstood, im truely sorry.
-
thats great! I dont mind at all, make changes as you please. im glad someone is taking an interest in the code/functionality part of it.
-
dont have time to test all problems, so sometimes i just mention what i would try. i did say in the post it might not work.
-
I will have a look in the morning (about 12hrs from nw). edit: it seems 720p is a yt-dlp limitation yes. try downloading ffmpeg. you can download it by ticking the trim videos checkbox. if that doesnt work you can download it manually and put it in the vidsnap scraper folder. might still not work, but definitely worth a try

Cool, glad to hear it's working for you now. btw, unless it's very old even a previous version shouldn't freeze up launchbox as it should be asyncronous, that's interesting. did it freeze up your computer as well? -

Sorry only seeing this now. I'll have a look. Edit: I think i'll need some more info, not sure what, but it seems to be working on my end with LB v12.11 and Vidsnap Scraper v0.47 (I downloaded it from here again), see below. Plugins can definitely make LB hang though, whats the latest version that worked for you?

good to hear, thanks👍

@totoro I thought I replied to this earlier but I don't see my post so i must've not submitted it. Anyhow, I'm glad you like it and it's a pleasure. With regards to your suggestions: 1. I think this is a great idea, and have implemented persistent settings in version 0.4.7 which I've just uploaded. I might add a "reset to defaults" button in the future also. Please have test and see if it works ok. 2. I think this is a good idea also, but would require quite some work to do, so I can't make any promises that this would be implemented anytime soon. 3. If I do decide to implement #2 then this would be implemented at the same time.

1) I had a look at the above issue, but I can't seem to completely replicate it and also I'm thinking that I wouldn't be able to fix it. It could be the way ytsearch function works in yt-dlp,but it's not as well documented as the other functions and I'm not sure which parameters to change. However, it could possibly be youtube itself giving you the same video regardless of search terms (I don't know how youtube algorythms work)??? I did change some parameters and have uploaded a new version, but I doubt it changed anything at all. Below are some screenshots: 2) I thought about adding a custom URL link, but would then only be for 1 video at a time, hence I do suggest just pasting in the video URL in the edit menu of the game before running the plugin. i'll add it to the todo list and have a look again when I get some free time. Sorry I wasn't much help on this one.

That's interesting, I'll have a look into the trailer thing when I get a chance and get back to you . with regards to the link, that should be easy to do but not what I was going for with the plugin as if you are already going for a specific link manually then it might be easier just to use youtube-dl or yt-dlp to do that? alternatively, you could paste in the video url textbox before running the plugin. nevertheless, I'll see what I can do.

@Zazamastro I've uploaded a new version as it seems download speed was crippled in youtube-dl. not sure what the reasons are, but for me it was about a 10th my line speed. Simply switched over to yt-dlp which is a fork of youtube-dl with some extra features, and seems to saturate my line. give it a try and see if it works better for you, or let me know if there are any issues.
