- YouTube failed with error 429 - Only when I select to show videos of certain time durration

[tio-trom]

This only happens if I select a video duration of minimum whatever minutes. If I do not add that, it works. Weird....

HttpException: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hiPFEUoUyI resulted in 429 Too Many Requests  in lib/contents.php line 200

unable to reproduce this: https://rss-bridge.org/bridge01/?action=display&bridge=YoutubeBridge&context=By+channel+id&c=UC5UAwBUum7CPN5buc-_N1Fw&duration_min=2&duration_max=&format=html

however, this is yt rejecting too many requests too fast. maybe overly used server.

let know if still having this issue

It could be this...How do you go around this for https://rss-bridge.org?

[dvikan]

maybe because of recent code changes. try reproducing the error in master

I will try. We are using the Yunohost package https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/rss-bridge_ynh and it is quite outdated. We are trying to make it pull directly from the git YunoHost-Apps/rss-bridge_ynh#54 - if you have any inputs there.

Thanks!

I see your main instance started to suffer from the same disease :D - https://rss-bridge.org/bridge01/?action=display&bridge=YoutubeBridge&context=By+username&u=EpicSpaceman&duration_min=1&duration_max=&format=Html

I even moved my instance to a completely new server, and thus IP, and it worked for 2 days then it throws me the same issue.

Maybe this is an issue that needs more attention so perhaps you should reopen this issue?

[dvikan]

sure. this is the generic youtube rate limiting.

[tio-trom]

How can we go around that? Any tips?

[dvikan]

duration filter triggers excessive requests.
