Disable YT-DL online Scrapping

Closed this issue · 4 comments

I am using the plugin alongside a library that's already had their metadata populated in json files by YTDL.
Since it is useless to do it twice, I am trying to use the plugin in some "local only" fashion, but despite not having youtube-dl in its PATH, the plugin is always trying to reach for it, causing thousands of errors and slowing down the scan.
Anyway I can tell the plugin to be local only?
Shouldn't it be local only by default anyway if the json files is already there?
Thanks you !

Did you disable the remote downloader in your libraries settings?

Sorry do you mean this?

No, sorry for not responding.

When you go into a library and change it's settings, there are a few sections for the metadata plugins. The Reader (top one in image) section as shown here is for local. The subsequent ones named Download (bottom one mentioning TV shows) is for downloading from remote.
