Maximum shorts is not working

Open

jongsang0205 opened this issue

I set the Maximum shorts as 0 but still it scraps shorts. I want to rule out shorts and only scraps the videos. I try to do that with "Maximum shorts" parameter but it looks doesn't work well.

Please let me know how can I rule out the shorts

Hello, thank you for opening this issue.

Looking at your run I think the problem is that you are passing a direct URL to a short. If you are interested in scraping a specific channel I would suggest to use the direct URL to the channel e.g. https://www.youtube.com/@VirtualBacon as I did in this example run: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/cHqw8MeJTLG1S4QUP.

Please try and let us know if you have any question.

Happy scraping!
