  4. CONFIGURATION
  5. -------------
  6. mailto: recipient address used for notitifications
  7. mailfrom: sender address used for notifications
  8. mailhost: host name or ip address of the mail server which is used to send notifications
  9. auth_needed: define if the smtp server need authentication (yes or no)
  10. user_name: user name to use for smtp authentication if defined
  11. password: password to use for SMTP authentication
  12. youtube-dl: path to the youtube-dl binary if not found automatically
  13. downloaddir: path the downloaded videos are saved into
  14. database: file name to use for the database
  15. smtpport: port used to connect to the mail server
  16. maxvideos: maximum number of videos to retrieve from the youtube API for each subscription, default 25, maximum 50, reduce this parameter for better parsing performance
  17. notify: define if you want to be notified via email about new episodes of your subscriptions, valid values: yes or no
  18. db_version: database version (Do not change!)
  19. config_version: configuration version (Do not change!)
  20. videocodec: video codec used for downloaded videos (valid values: h264, webm or flv)
  21. maxresolution: maximum resolution to use for downloaded videos, please note that not all codecs and resolutions might be available so a lower resolution or other codec might be used in these cases
  22. maxfails: number of times the download of a video may fail until it is marked as failed and won't be tried again
  23. check_title: define if stov should check the title of each video in a search or channel with search string subscription. This works around some deficits of the youtube API which sometimes also returns video completely unrelated to your search. Videos whose titles don't match the search string will be entirely ignored. valid values: yes or no
  24. use_api: Define if you want to use the Youtube Data API v2. If this is set to false,
  25. a fallback mode using youtube-dl will be used. This is generally much slower,
  26. so using the API is recommended. However Google will cease offering the API
  27. without authentication in the foreseable future, so using the fallback mode
  28. will be the only option then.
