v4.2.6 - API Fixes - New Features & Video Detection Rewrite

Release 4.2.6.zip
Install.zip
Update.zip

This is a big release with a bunch of new features! As always you can read about settings on the wiki here: Settings Info

The big change for this release is that video information is now stored within a videos.json file, this is to avoid duplicate videos being downloaded when their titles have invalid regex characters. This update will mean that you need to redownload any videos that you had downloaded before this, however you really only need to download the last x number of latest videos you have the script to look for.

This release had added Logging to a file, auto fetching the download server and the ability to disable ffmpeg.
There are also a bunch of fixes that you can read through below.

I changed a lot in this so if you run into any issues please contact me on Discord, Github or the LMG form :)

Now that the Floatplane.com site is back to having videos posted Ive been able to identify a few issues. The fix for ordering in 4.0.1 broke maxVideos so this fixes that.

Changelog

v4.0.3

  • Fixed maxVideos not working correctly due to ordering update in 4.0.1
  • Fixed matching for some subChannels not properly ignoring case
  • Fixed update script to properly move new settings for 4.0.0

4.0.0 - Floatplane.com Update & More Colours

07 Jun 20:43
Compare
Choose a tag to compare

Release 4.0.0.zip
Install.zip
Update.zip

This release has some new settings which are covered in the Settings Guide.

This update completely rewrites a large majority of the core code for the script to use the new Floatplane.com site and its API. I heavily suggest doing a fresh install, your old videos should still work fine with this version so you don't need to redownload them.

To use the script from now on you have to be using a Floatplane.com account! Dont worry LinusTechTips.com form users though, you can create a new Floatplane account and then link your form account.

Video category matching should be MUCH better now that I am using the api, while Floatplane.com does not sort the videos directly into say Techquickie and TechLinked, its much easier to do with access to the api.

A short summary of Changes:

  • Changed login and authentication to use the new Floatplane.com Site. Read above for more info!
  • Large rewrites to core code to  use the Floatplane.com API.
  • Added more posters.
  • Added support for new Floatplane.com creators without needing new updates.
  • Rewrote all the detection code for organisation. Should be much much better now.
  • Added more sexy colours.
  • Removed youtube support.

Full Changelog

v4.0.0

  • Updated cookies for normal login
  • Added login functionality for Floatplane.com
  • Removed support for direct linustechtips.com use. Link your form account through Floatplane.com
  • Removed forceLogin option
  • Updated cookies in settings.json to use Floatplane.com values
  • Removed csrfKey from settings.json
  • Removed useFloatplane from settings.json
  • Removed useBitWit from settings.json
  • Added subscriptions in settings.json
  • Removed maxPages from settings.json
  • Updated maxVideos to work with any number
  • Updated posters
  • Rewrote subChannel detection code
  • Removed subChannelIgnore from settings.json
  • Updated episode counting
  • Added MOAR colours
  • Removed youtube support (For videos on the form that were from youtube)
  • Checked support for other Floatplane Creators
  • Fixed spacing for downloading videos
  • Updated printouts for downloads
  • Updated ffmpeg error printouts
  • Added checkForNewSubscriptions in settings.json
  • Added Tech Deals artwork

Install Guide

I heavily suggest doing a clean install for this version.

If your updating then just download the Update.zip extract it to your install folder and run it. It will automagically update all the needed files and move your settings over.
I suggest double checking that everything is correctly updated in the settings.json though it should move your old settings over properly.

This is a HotFix for adding support for TechLinked. It also contains some fixes that were finished and ready for the next release. TechLinked support is mainly for plex, 3.8.2 can download the videos fine, it just does not have the ability to sort them into its own folder for plex.

I also created a banner for TechLinked for plex too which is under the videos/artwork alongside the others.
