Btw where did you get 3.9 from? I remember the XP Python thread was mainly 3.8 and there is a 3.9 build there, but I heard it was buggy and unstable.

I was able to backport this to Python 3.8 with the help of AI (I have no idea how to do anything in Python) and it works great, but I was never able to figure out how to get modern Pyinstaller working on XP so I never released it. https://github.com/K4sum1/xl-converter/commits/stable How did you get a Python debug environment working on XP? I tried to virtualenv with the XP Python 3.8 so I could test xl-converter in a debug mode, but I couldn't figure out how to get it to work.

Why not just add back Python 3.9 support on your fork?

This uses ffmpeg, which appears to modify the output somehow. If I take a webm, turn it into a wav, and compare that to a webm > ffmpeg opus > wav, they have a slightly different waveform. If I compare it to a mkvextract opus wav, they match.

When the highest quality version of a song I can get is a YT Opus rip, I use mkvextract from MKVToolNix to turn it into a ,opus file that I then can apply metadata to and is recognized as an audio file. The command I use is mkvextract "(source).webm" tracks 0:"(output).opus"

r3dfox 140 will come soon

It's probably the r3dfox bit at the end, but idk. Try experimenting with general.useragent.override.chase.com and general.useragent.override.discover.com and I'll add what works best to the next release.

That fixed it for me, thank

@nicolaasjan Can you enable issues on your yt-dlp GitHub repo? I was about to report an issue to the yt-dlp GitHub, but I tried official yt-dlp to test, and it just doesn't have the issue, which means something is wrong with your fork. However issues aren't enabled on your repo, so I can't report it there. This command with your fork downloads the worse AAC audio instead of the superior Opus audio for the video, even though I specify bestaudio in the command. yt-dlp.exe -f "(bestvideo[height<=720]+bestaudio/best[height<=720])[vcodec!*=av01]" -o "%%(channel)s [%%(channel_id)s]/%%(upload_date)s - %%(title)s - (%%(duration)ss) [%%(id)s].%%(ext)s" --merge-output mkv --write-info-json --write-description --write-thumbnail --add-metadata --write-sub --all-subs --embed-subs "https://youtu.be/bCTObNkRGsg" The same command in the official yt-dlp downloads the proper Opus audio for the video. I can download the Opus audio with your fork by doing -F which gives me the Opus audio as 251, and then doing -f 251. So it can grab the audio fine, it just doesn't recognize it as being the best audio for the video. Also while I was still making the issue, if I add -vU to the beginning of the above command, it properly downloads the Opus audio for the video. I don't know why. Also I'm using the win7 version.

I would say maybe soon, but I know that it's just a tiny bit of work so ig I'll get on it now then.

How did you patch Pyinstaller 4.10 to work with XP? I first tried 6.1.0 because it was what the project I use originally supported and had only a few missing functions. I patched the source code, rebuilt and used it but I just get a blank Unhandled exception in script error when it's opened. Then I found this and decided to try 4.10, but it still has one of the things I need to patch So I carried that patch over to 4.10, and it built fine, but when installing it, I get this error and I'm not sure what to do.

Could try https://catbox.moe/ for quick uploads, or https://archive.org/ for longer term storage.

Try going to about:support and click the Clear Startup Cache button. If the issue still occurs, try the browser without the userChrome.css theme you have.

Gonna need a little more info than that. What version, OS, and OS theme?
