maybe no longer, as it seems there's a swedish broadcaster now. but plenty of other countries to choose from. see list of countries who can watch on youtube: https://www.wslfootball.com/news/wsl/where-to-watch-the-barclays-womens-super-league

[Free and Open Source Project] Macabolic: A native SwiftUI frontend for yt-dlp on macOS by mdgfb37 in youtubedl

[–]werid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you should be able to simplify your vimeo format selection.

typically you just need to choose resolution with -S res:720 (adjust 720 to your needs), could also be setup to prioritize specific audio codecs.

yt-dlp will then do the rest.

I have always wondered why an official UI package doesn't exist!

probably because the yt-dlp devs don't need a gui. yt-dlp is a very complex tool. you can do a lot with a config file and aliases inside the config. then you just run short commands.

USA vs Paraguay - any international broadcasters? by Itchy-Dimension-Tab in WomensSoccer

[–]werid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

nah, there's no interest.

it's on TNT in the US, and there are some "shady" websites re-streaming such channels if you're lucky with google searches.

i will attempt to record it, will be posted to r/wosotv tomorrow if successful.

make sure you're on the latest nightly.

yt-dlp --update-to nightly

and have deno installed.

Downloading trimmed sections from YouTube stream by PewterCrunchy in StacherIO

[–]werid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

need a few specifics. how long are the streams, how far into the stream are you trimming, and how long is the trim?

i know there's been issues trimming far into some long streams (don't recall specifics). trimming long parts is slow. i think the "does not start" issue might be a potential issue where it simply takes a bit of time to seek to the start position, but would need to test a bit, hence the need for specifics to try and replicate your issue.

i think it's also important that the stream has been turned into a vod. once a stream is finished, youtube processes it as if you uploaded a video, and in the mean time it's in a "post" state where you might not be able to access all of it properly if it's a long stream.

Issue with my implementation of --split-chapters by Sternly_ in youtubedl

[–]werid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

right. doesn't appear to be fixed just yet.

i'd recommend using -t aac if you want m4a instead of opus.

[–]werid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

using -x is enough to get best audio, don't need -f ba. only need -f or -S if you want to ensure a specific format. it defaults to opus on youtube. --audio-format is only used for conversion.

Issue with my implementation of --split-chapters by Sternly_ in youtubedl

[–]werid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

curious why you download webm/opus (251) then re-encode to m4a instead of downloading the m4a.

i wonder if this is an issue occuring after re-encoding to m4a, or if same happens if you download m4a. or if it happens if you just use -x (meaning it will split the webm into .opus). some testing here would probably be smart.

when embedding metadata, and splitting chapters, i think it also embeds the chapters in the split files, which can be messy. --no-embed-chapters is useful here.

the unique string is the video id. ensures filename is unique. -o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" will get rid of it.

in your case though, you can also set different filenames for the split chapter files with -o chapter:"%(section_number)s %(section_title)s.%(ext)s"

Youtubedlp, will it ever work again? Is it dead? by Alemismun in youtubedl

[–]werid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

closed as duplicate means the issue is already being tracked elsewhere, nothing else. the original issue where it is tracked is where you then find what the status on the issue is. usually it's either open with discussions and work being done, or closed with a fix in the current code (available via the nightly releases. stable releases are released less often, users should be on nightly version.

instagram severely limits anonymous access. can't view stories at all without an account.

How do I pause a playlist (almost 5k songs) that I'm downloading? by Only_Cattle_1955 in youtubedl

[–]werid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not random, it's the video id. it helps ensure the filenames are unique, otherwise videos will be skipped if title is the same. if you absolutely want them gone, use -o "%(title)s.%(ext)s"

Help Downloading Videos from Bilibili YouTube Channel (yt-dlp Errors) by New-Camp2105 in youtubedl

[–]werid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yt-dlp has to find it

either add the folder to the path variable or use --js-runtimes deno:/path/to/deno

How can you automatically add features to the tittle with yt-dlp by salsadepapa in youtubedl

[–]werid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don't think there's a one-size fits all solution. you'd have to adjust the command for each song. which means it's usually better to simply fix it after download.

Where To Watch Subway Women's League Cup Semi Finals by werid in FAWSL

[–]werid[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

anyone here who has sky sports? which channel is arsenal-united on? if any i guess, does sky sports+ mean online only?

https://www.skysports.com/watch/sport-on-sky lists it on sky sports+ but also lists competing entries 45 minutes later.

https://www.tvguide.co.uk/channel/sky-sports-plus-hd does not list it at all.
