Status 400 received when requesting transcript

[beirne]

I just installed the plugin into Obsidian on my Mac but it can't pull transcripts. I get a status 400 error. This happens with videos that have both auto-generated and creator-generated transcripts.

I'm running YTranscript 0.7.1 on Obsidian 1.3.5 on MacOS 13.4.

@beirne Try v0.8.1

[beirne]

I'm still getting the 400 status with 0.8.1. I tried both ways of downloading the transcript and got the same result with both.

[decaf-dev]

That's odd. I don't get that error in 0.8.1. What kind of YouTube links are you using?

[beirne]

Here's one: https://youtu.be/FatnXnlwAc4

[decaf-dev]

Ah. I get the 400 error as well. Try https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FatnXnlwAc4. This is the full youtube URL. It includes the watch?v= and youtube.com instead of youtu.be. It appears that youtu.be links are broken.

[beirne]

Yep, that's it. Thanks!

I have found the problem in the code. I might push a fix.

Hi!
Have this issue while on iPhone 12 mini using the Yt app. All up to date including iOS.
Reproduction:

• open YT app

• click on selected movie

• click share
  

• I'm getting this url: https://youtu.be/Yt3JJ-e7g9g?si=R37f_BQHTVvFXpPC
  It does not work.

Another option:
I click share -> more -> copy
And I get the following link:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=Yt3JJ-e7g9g&si=R37f_BQHTVvFXpPC

Also does not work,
Tried multiple movies same issue.
