{resolution} results in the output of 'premium' when TubeSync downloads a Premium source.

I didn't even realize that TubeSync could download the 'Premium' flagged encodes, but nifty. That said it's not giving me a resolution from the {resolution}.

I'm currently using this formatting:

{source_full} {yyyy_mm_dd} {title_full} [{resolution} WEB-DL].{ext}

And now have some files coming in like this:

Nostalgia Nerd 2021-11-17 This Mysterious Computer Could Prove Time Travel Exists Nostalgia Nerd [premium WEB-DL].mkv

'Premium' doesn't really tell me what resolution the file is, since, AFAIK, Premium could be any number of resolutions, depending on what the highest uploaded resolution is.

Oh, apparently ditto for some files reporting their framerate despite never using the {fps} tag in my filenames. Seems to only be happening if the framerate is 50fps.

Example:

Thanks, there's obviously been some changes on the YouTube side that I need to update in tubesync. tubesync itself doesn't "support" premium streams, it's really just a web UI wrapper around yt-dlp which does all of the heavy lifting so it'll support whatever yt-dlp upstream supports. It has some logic in it for the file naming though which is probably where this issue is hiding. I don't have a YouTube account myself so issues with premium flagged formats generally require people like you to report them here as I can't stumble over and see them myself.

I'll look into this before the next release.

Yeah, so about that 'YouTube Account' thing. I've done nothing to enter my YT account info into TubeSync and I don't pay for YT premium anyway. I don't know how it downloaded something 'Premium' if it really did,

Ah fair enough. It's likely that YouTube are occasionally presenting "premium" streams for non-premium and not authenticated users then, or at least offering them as formats which you can't access. Either way it's a change at YouTube which will need investigation and updating in tubesync to account for it. Cheers for the details.
