Hi

Just started to use Scriberr, had downloaded the latest docker image, and thought I’d have a go at a yourtube video, but it gave me the following error… Is there anything I can do ?

Try using this command docker exec -it YourContainerName yt-dlp --update it should fix while waiting for a newer version.

As the last readme update say, the project is slowed down due to personal circumstance of Rishikantch
