The Freetube-Redirect extension won't work with the portable versions, which the AUR version is based on. It only sets the freetube-bin input in the application search bar and doesn't load the video at all. The non-portable version works well after disabling "Grab videos locally".

Could you fix this issue, or could you just build the app from other source (like the .deb version) other than the portable version?

Thanks for the packaging :) Would be great to add MimeType=x-scheme-handler/freetube; to the desktop file as it's required in order to use the Firefox extension which uses the freetube:// url scheme.

freetube came up with this error after installing with yay on latest arch:

freetube-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Program works after installing libxss from the extra repo. I suggest we include it as a dependency by default.

Thank you belara and plague-doctor. You both fixed it. Very nice.

I reverted to the failing state before trying your update. It seems to do the trick! Thanks for your work on this.

A fix has been pushed. (I hope it's a fix...)

I'm running Manjaro 18.0.4. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

What OS are you on? I cannot replicate this on my Arch...

@0000000011111111 I received the same error. This fixed it for me:

sudo chown root /opt/freetube-bin/chrome-sandbox

sudo chmod 4755 /opt/freetube-bin/chrome-sandbox
