04:45 🔗 underscor anyone know if youtube-dl handles dash properly atm?
04:45 🔗 underscor (cc DFJustin via SketchCow)
04:49 🔗 DFJustin it didn't a few days ago
04:51 🔗 DFJustin nope still doesn't
04:52 🔗 underscor what does it do wrong?
04:52 🔗 DFJustin downloads the best available non-DASH which is of a lower quality
04:53 🔗 DFJustin unless you specifically instruct it which format to get
04:54 🔗 DFJustin e.g. `youtube-dl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7T1IYdjOpYE` downloads a 360p version when there is 480p available via DASH
04:55 🔗 underscor aha
04:56 🔗 DFJustin `youtube-dl -f 135+140 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7T1IYdjOpYE` works but isn't documented or automatic
04:56 🔗 DFJustin and you need a different incantation for 1080p
04:58 🔗 underscor on the plus side, you can extract just the audio now
04:59 🔗 DFJustin not much of a plus since you could do that before just with a little extra download time
04:59 🔗 underscor haha
05:00 🔗 underscor So the issue is that the default settings are bad (and the fix isn't documented)
05:00 🔗 DFJustin yes
05:01 🔗 DFJustin ideally it should do all of this automatically by default, but the bare minimum competent thing would be to print a warning that you're not getting the best quality
05:02 🔗 DFJustin instead I had to redownload several months' worth of grabs after figuring this out
14:24 🔗 godane so you guys are getting a incomplete dump of theblaze tv support forums
14:24 🔗 godane they forums changed after april 2014
