120 limit on youtube channels
No matter what yt channel I use your api on it always limits me to 120 videos - is there a way to go beyong this?
Please share the actor run. I will take a look

I think the number of total videos found is the Real total. In the actor run it is logged "120 videos found". The number given by YouTube in the Channel page is misleading.
You Can increase the scrap'n'scroll retries in the input page to confirm that

So I tried a different youtube page and it again showed 120 which is practically impossible no?
Yes that's strange 🤔. Give me more Time i will run sommes tests on différent Channels. May take some time
The issue was in the waiting Time for scrap'n'scroll. I increased the waiting Time to 5 seconds. It seems that the youtube page loading Time takes longer. I will make it customisable tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience. Increase the retries to 10.
Hi ultramarine_lute, the problem is solved. Thanks for bringing to my attention this flaw, now the code scrolls adequately until the end of the page and grabs all the available video links. The timeout for waiting is no longer needed as the code handles all the necessary logic. If you have any issue please feel free to contact me

Awesome, tyvm. Btw do you have a similar scraper for websites using their sitemap or RSS feed?
sitemap or RSS feed? no, but I will add this to my todo list and code it asap :)

Ok, lmk once ready. It's the same idea for LLM integration that a YouTube channel caught my interest and many will want this too.
