Have you installed invidious via docker? Every time I build an image and try to install it (either using the official repo or the custom from yewtube), I get errors that the video can’t be played, any suggestions what am I doing wrong?

    been running it in docker for over a year now with the docker hub image. I’m assuming you got to the app site page based off of what you described. I’d imagine it may be something related to the video quality/encoding option? Does the metadata come through when you search for a video? Also, I find Invidious tends to be (rightly so) particular with the TLS stapling option, so if you don’t have tls or a proxy in front of it, then make sure it’s set to off (happened to me with self signed certs and nothing would play)

    Why are you building the image yourself? Not that there’s a problem with that necessarily, but it seems a bit wasteful of your resources unless you have a specific reason to do so. There’s a docker image (quay.io/invidious/invidious:latest) built by the developers that gets updated pretty frequently. I’ve been using it for years now and it’s been working perfectly fine for me the whole time.
