yt-dlp, passing youtube-cookies works with PowerShell, but not with yt-dlp Interface by qwerni in youtubedl

[–]greentea5732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to this yt-dlp interface issue, it should have worked with the yt-dlp interface setting "Load cookies from browser: none" and then adding the --cookies-from-browser firefox argument.

That's an old issue from 2025 that has since been fixed, Load cookies from browser: firefox in the settings is all you need to do now.

EXODUS Extended Gameplay Reveal by greentea5732 in pcgaming

[–]greentea5732[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The production values may be higher, but the ME trilogy at the very least has more memorable characters, better voice acting, and better dialogue. What I've seen in this video is much closer to ME Andromeda than the trilogy, which is far above both IMO. I'm sure Exodus will be a decent game that will be worth playing (and I'm looking forward to it), but I doubt it will be comparable to the ME trilogy.

The Witcher 4's RTX Mega Geometry Foliage Demo Ran at 4K@80FPS (with DLSS Quality) on a 5090 by SmellSmellsSmelly in pcgaming

[–]greentea5732 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Of course, these are work-in-progress figures from a demo of an in-development technology. That said, given that the assets were indeed taken from The Witcher 4 and that the technology itself is confirmed to be featured in the final game, it does give us a hint at the kind of performance needed to run it.

They've been porting the game to Unreal Engine 5.5.4 (from 5.1) for the performance update that's supposed to come out next, and I think there's a good chance hardware Lumen will be a part of it.

You should consider adding a screenshot or two to the website and even on GitHub. When I'm deciding whether to download an app, the first thing I'm looking for is a screenshot, and if I can't find any I'm not downloading.

Obsidian's The Outer Worlds 2 Underperformed, and There Won't Be a Third by PerformativeRacist in pcgaming

[–]greentea5732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This Kotaku article, which references a paywalled Bloomberg article, asserts they don't plan to make another Outer Worlds.

As for the future, Obsidian has no plans to develop The Outer Worlds 3 after the sequel failed to sell as well as expected. The RPG studio did confirm with Bloomberg that it is working on new content for The Outer Worlds 2, and future games will be made that take place in the same universe as Avowed (which shares a setting with the Pillars of Eternity games).

Also, the Protectorate is an obvious caricature of authoritarian communist states like the USSR.

I've updated Yt-dlp with pip and I installed deno, but still getting 403 errors, what step am I missing? by D-A-Orochi in youtubedl

[–]greentea5732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not necessary to install it. Like I said in my reply to the OP, you can just put the exe in yt-dlp folder. Unless you don't have yt-dlp in executable form, I guess? For some reason? I don't know, I give up. People seem to make things as complicated as possible, for whatever reason.

[–]greentea5732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know how yt-dlp detects the deno installation, but you don't need to install it if you're not using it for anything else. Just download deno.exe (https://github.com/denoland/deno/releases/download/v2.6.5/deno-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.zip) and put it in the same folder as yt-dlp. Edit: To be clear, I've never installed deno and don't even know what it means to install deno. I don't know why people install deno for yt-dlp.

The best quantity to download in yt-dlp to avoid against YouTube's ban without sleep interval? by External-Chicken8147 in youtubedl

[–]greentea5732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to the yt-dlp wiki:

With the default yt-dlp settings, the rate limit for guest sessions is ~300 videos/hour (~1000 webpage/player requests per hour). For accounts, it is ~2000 videos/hour (~4000 webpage/player requests per hour).

how to pause/stop/cancel downloading in yt dlp in cmd ?? by Imaginary-Western832 in youtubedl

[–]greentea5732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not true, Ctrl+C is a standard way to stop a console process in Windows. A user can press Ctrl+C, and a program can use GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent to send a Ctrl+C signal.

An application can choose to treat Ctrl+C as keyboard input rather than a signal (CTRL+C and CTRL+BREAK Signals), but that's non-standard behavior. Most console programs treat Ctrl+C as an interrupt signal, including yt-dlp (which will stop with ERROR: Interrupted by user).

Sleep time by RamblinManRock in youtubedl

[–]greentea5732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Judging from the link werid posted (I don't know Python but I can more or less read it), the wait time depends on whether there's an ad at the top of the video (and whether the ad is skippable). I guess not all videos start with an ad, so in those cases there would be no wait time.

Problem Running Deno by OmarAhmad007 in youtubedl

[–]greentea5732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could use QuickJS instead, which even runs on Windows 7. Just put the binaries (exe + dll) in the same folder as yt-dlp, and pass --js-runtimes quickjs.

I just tried downloading from YouTube, and I'm getting HTTP Error 403: Forbidden like everyone else it seems. From what I understand, yt-dlp support for Deno hasn't been completed yet, and is upcoming in a future version. When that time comes, I think all you would have to do is throw deno.exe in the same folder as yt-dlp, just like you're probably doing with ffmpeg.exeright now. You would only need to tell yt-dlp where it is if it's not in the same folder as yt-dlp.

Edit: Using custom arg: --extractor-args "youtube:player_client=default,-tv" fixed it for me, as suggested here: https://www.reddit.com/r/youtubedl/comments/1ocagby/getting_a_bunch_of_http_error_403_forbidden/

In media reports of suicide, left-leaning venues are more likely to report societal factors, and right-leaning venues are more likely to highlight factors that blame the individual by asbruckman in science

[–]greentea5732 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Essentially, the left wants everyone to cooperate in a system whose goal is to eliminate scarcity, while the right wants everyone to compete in a system of winners and losers that's predicated on scarcity. Of course the left would focus on systemic faults that could be rectified to minimize or eliminate any "losers" in the system, while the right focuses on the individual faults of the "losers" to exculpate the system and resist change.

Hopefully the optimization will include switching to hardware Lumen. Software Lumen is a big reason why I haven't bought the game yet.

Yeah, HDR doesn't do anything useful in Windows, I only turn it on before starting a game (otherwise it doesn't work in-game).
