audio import tool
Using Jamroom

izhmel:
Any updates? I would like to import some songs but will take too long to add prices to all 1000 songs.

I will get a tracker open on it so we can get that added in.

Thanks!

Thanks Brian - sorry to bother you...

No worries - there's a number of new changes and updates in JR7 so you may see some things you're not used to seeing.

Okay, thank you. I found a workaround to grab the channel ID.

OK sounds good - if you want to share your work around it could help others :)

Thanks!

michaeld:
Is there a way of finding the channel ID? Maybe even through a ping or something?

No - the only thing you could do a search, but that will return any channels that match - even partial matches. So there's no reliable way to do it in the code.

Using Jamroom

None of those are the correct ones - those are all modules for OTHER programs to "use" the ImageMagick system. The one you want would be JUST called "imagemagick" - nothing with a "::" in it.

For Ubuntu 20.04 the command is:

sudo apt install imagemagick

Okay…But if you entree the YouTube URL with the handle in it, shouldn’t it redirect and that functionality have nothing to do with the API?

Yeah we have to use what is entered as the channel name in the API call - unlike on the web side there's no "redirect". Seems short sighted of Google to not support this - but to be honest it is not terribly surprising. I don't get the feeling Google really wants people using the API.

Email Notifications Plain Text Only?
Using Jamroom

Previously the "test email" function only ever sent email in plain text - the recent Mail Support module updates now shows you if you have HTML email enabled. If you see "HTML notifications are enabled" in your test message then you're good - your regular emails will include the header/footer. So this is working correctly.

Unfortunately the YouTube API does not support looking up a channel by handle:

https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/channels/list

You can only use a user name or channel ID. Looks like others are wondering the same thing as well but it's been a while so it could be that YouTube is purposefully not adding this to their API support:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74348727/youtube-data-api-get-channel-by-handle

Once the support is there we can add support for it in the module.

I have not had time to look in to it yet but will as soon as I get a chance. Based on the documentation I've seen, the old channel ID should still work - are you able to use your channel ID or has YouTube hidden that now?
