Importing subscription doesn't work on libretube

Open rozari0 opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Libretube
  2. Go to Settings -> Instance -> Import Subscription
  3. Select subscriptions.json file
  4. Libretube will return 'something went wrong'

Expected behavior

This should import subscribed channels.

Actual behavior

Something went wrong.

LibreTube version

0.6.1

Android version

Android 9

Other details

This things happend before, I just ignored and imported in piped web frontend. But I think it should also work in libretube too. I tried with and without account, same thing happened.

I can share my subscriptions.json if you want.

And this possibly will be a duplicate issue, sorry for that.

Yes, it would be great if you could share your subscriptions.json :)

How should I share it?

Either upload it here or send it privately to me via Matrix (@bnyro:matrix.org)

Just did. :)

Yes it fails on my end too.

From newpipe to libretube. Newpipe creates .zip instead of .json subscription backup. It gives the same error 'Something went wrong'.

I have also sent you my subscription newpipe .zip file to test it out on matrix personal room

Newpipe can export .json. You need to export subscription from Subscription tab, not full backup of newpipe. 😐

Correct :)

I messed up. I was trying to import the full backup instead of just subscription backup. The export feature for sub backup is hidden inside newpipe.

I have deleted my message on matrix. My bad.
