Describe your issue

Hi,

I am getting this error on any video I try to convert to mp3. Direct downloads of videos work fine:

An error occurred Conversion of DASH segments is not supported.

My installation steps are a little bit specific, so I will post them as follows:

Installation instructions: for Youtube-DL

Required Stuff:
ffmpeg
python
phantomjs

apt-get install python ffmpeg

For PhantomJS, install prerequisites first:
apt-get install build-essential chrpath libssl-dev libxft-dev libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev libfontconfig1 libfontconfig1-dev

Upload phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 from my backup.
Extract it to its folder "phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64"
mv phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 /usr/local/share
ln -sf /usr/local/share/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64/bin/phantomjs /usr/local/bin

In /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf we need to comment the ssl_conf line.

[default_conf]
#ssl_conf = ssl_sect

Then my hosting environment had following functions disabled:
disable_functions = pcntl_alarm,pcntl_fork,pcntl_waitpid,pcntl_wait,pcntl_wifexited,pcntl_wifstopped,pcntl_wifsignaled,pcntl_wifcontinued,pcntl_wexitstatus,pcntl_wtermsig,pcntl_wstopsig,pcntl_signal,pcntl_signal_get_handler,pcntl_signal_dispatch,pcntl_get_last_error,pcntl_strerror,pcntl_sigprocmask,pcntl_sigwaitinfo,pcntl_sigtimedwait,pcntl_exec,pcntl_getpriority,pcntl_setpriority,pcntl_async_signals,exec,system,passthru,shell_exec,proc_open,popen

and was complaining about proc_open, so I just removed all disabled functions from the line (none disabled anymore).

Updated config.yml and that was it.

Then I just added "$_ENV['LANG'] = 'en_US.UTF-8';" after use Alltube\ErrorHandler;
 and before the "try" in the index.php file to fix cyrillic names as you taught me.

I have tried to set ffmpeg verbosity to warning in config.yml, but I can't get more details. debug option in same file also didn't help providing me any insight.

Can you help me with this ?

And two unrelated questions:

1. Which php functions are required for the script to function properly?
2. What is phantomjs used for? It's the most difficult part of setup and kind of concerns me a bit, as I had to comment that thing on openssl (I don't know what else it could impact).

Thanks in advance.

Any video

Please don't do this, you can never be sure a bug can be reproduced with 100 % of existing videos. Providing an example saves the maintainer time.
I suppose you mean any YouTube video.
I can reproduce with https://youtu.be/fhS83VEUB5Y.

Conversion of DASH segments is not supported.

It looks like fetching a YouTube video with -f 'bestaudio/best/bestvideo' now returns an audio in the DASH format and AllTube does not support converting this format to MP3.
DownloadController::getAudioResponse() would probably need to ask yt-dlp not to return DASH formats.

What is phantomjs used for?

It is used by some extractors, you probably don't need it unless you want to download videos from specific websites that require it.

[tshpr]

I put any, because I tried 5 different videos - I am sorry.

Anyway, should I replace the patched yt-dl with yt-dlp (quick fix) or wait for the latest release?

Thank you for your all your support and for the amazing software - it has saved me a lot of time over the years.

Can I pay you for a fix to get the site working? :)
