A workaround would be to set in the config-file, force_fallback => 1, which will use yt-dlp to extract the video URLs.

I'm getting this error when I'm trying to build: Perl API version v5.14.0 of Data::Dumper does not match v5.16.0 at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/XSLoader.pm line 95.

Looks like characters, which aren't supported in filenames on Windows are being replaced. This is fine for Windows, but we can do better! ;)

trizen, when I download I'm getting a percentage symbol in some filenames: Bill Gates Flushes Charity Down Toilet%.mp4 Rob Legato% The art of creating awe.mp4 The original names are: Rob Legato: The art of creating awe Bill Gates Flushes Charity Down Toilet?

@quite: it is recommended, but not required.

perl-term-readline-gnu is also a dependency, right?

<deleted-account> commented on 2012-08-20 22:48 (UTC)

@Trizen: Everything seems works flawlessly for me now with the update, and with a new conf. Thank you so much!

Raziel23 commented on 2012-08-20 12:23 (UTC)

@nagisa: It should works but you have to update PATH enviroment variable. The perl package contain bash scripts in /etc/profile.d/perlbin.sh which add the path /usr/bin/site_perl to PATH variable only if a /usr/bin/site_perl directory exists. So if you haven't created the /usr/bin/site_perl directory before installing youtube_viewer package you have to reboot system or execute "source /etc/profile.d/perlbin.sh" command in terminal to update PATH variable.

nagisa commented on 2012-08-20 11:43 (UTC)

@trizen, wouldn't it be easier just to do `mv $pkgdir/usr/bin/site_perl/* $pkgdir/usr/bin` and update package?

trizen commented on 2012-08-20 09:26 (UTC)

@Beefive, thanks for the reports. Here are some solutions: 1. export PATH="$PATH:/usr/bin/site_perl/" 2. Added a new value in config: 'results_with_colors' (please update). 3. The old way was very ambiguous, but now, :a=1 is equivalent with =a1 or ;a1 (see: youtube-viewer --tricks)
