Got error: "Sign in to confirm that you're not a bot" #3658
Comments
Some instances are working, some aren't. But it's probably gonna spread to all of them. |
Is there any solution for this? |
Cobalt implemented OAuth, but other than that there's not been much in terms of solving this issue... |
Well, maybe it would be good implementing it as an optional feature, so instances could continue running until there is a better solution. |
Restarting all containers fixed it for me tonight. |
Really !!! |
Didn't work for me, you probably got "B" tested ;D jokes aside, I have another request that may warrant a separate issue: |
This is happening to me on the majority of videos (~8 out of 10) and on different instances, to the point I had to go back to using vanilla youtube. |
Yes. Just obtain youtube API keys and paste the API_SECRET to src/main.js function at 127th line. getAuthToken() {
return this.getPreferenceString("authToken" + this.hashCode(this.authApiUrl()));
}, Everything works. |
You can host your own instance instead and paste the token as I have written above. |
If I use Docker, how can I rebuild it? I am looking forward to an update from the team regarding documentation and Docker for this temporary solution |
This is coming so often on official (piped.video) instance, approximately 7 of 10 videos. I haven't tried to change instance yet, I have switched to invidious. |
This is the best workaround though. Works 100% of the time. You rarely have to change it twice. |
Your modify the main.js like this? getAuthToken() { return this.getPreferenceString("authToken" + this.hashCode(API_KEY)); }, Where API_KEY = your yt api key Also how do get into the docker container to modify main.js? I tried bash but that'd didn't work. |
Unfortunately, no. getAuthToken() {
return this.getPreferenceString("YOUR_API_TOKEN_HERE" + this.hashCode(this.authApiUrl()));
}, API_KEY is API_SECRET in your profile. |
I am not facile with Docker, unfortunately. Instead, I host my own private instance on a VPS. |
When bash doesn't work try Where is the file located BTW? edit: I use these aliases in # get the container name if you don't remember, example: "dclist piped"
function dclist() {
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
docker ps -a --format "table {{.ID}}\t{{.Names}}" | (read -r; printf "%s\n" ""; sort -k 2);
else
docker ps -a --format "table {{.ID}}\t{{.Names}}" | (read -r; printf "%s\n" ""; sort -k 2) | grep "$1";
fi
}
# enter a container with bash or sh, example: "dcsh piped"
function dcbash() { docker exec -it "$1" /bin/bash; }
function dcsh() { docker exec -it "$1" /bin/sh; } |
Partial docker instructions, untested, try only if you know what these means:
At this point you can either extract it from the container, change it and mount it back (easier, persist across restarts, may break the frontend if the containers are updated) or manually edit it in place (no time so will do this for now, may need restart of the container, may break anyway or just not work) or add the sed command to the start script (it's already doing something similar for the instance name)

Official Instance
Describe the bug
On my private instance and with some others i have tested in the public list i am seeing "Got error: "Sign in to confirm that you're not a bot"" instead of a video
Here is a link from a public instance with the same problem:
https://piped.r4fo.com/watch?v=2G-L0u_L0qU
To Reproduce
Open this url on this instance
https://piped.r4fo.com/watch?v=2G-L0u_L0qU
See error
Expected behavior
Video to play normally

Browser, and OS with Version.
Happens on multiple browsers and devices
Additional context
I'm assuming it's related to something google/youtube have done as invidious instances are having similar issues.
