❗️Bug Report: MP3 Output Uploads as 0MB to Google Cloud Storage
Open
Actor: streamers/youtube-video-downloader Format: mp3 Storage: Google Cloud Storage Status: Reproducible bug Other formats (mp4, m4a): ✅ Work correctly
When I try to download a YouTube video in MP3 format and store it in Google Cloud Storage using this Actor, the resulting file appears in the bucket, but it is always 0MB in size.
Logs clearly indicate a post-processing failure during the mp4 → mp3 remuxing step:
[VideoRemuxer] Remuxing video from mp4 to mp3; Destination: /tmp/IIu2CRtVG-o_xxxxxx.mp3
ERROR: Postprocessing: Error opening output files: Invalid argument
✅ What I’ve confirmed: My Google Cloud bucket config is correct. The video downloads fine in other formats (mp4, m4a) and uploads correctly. This issue is specific to mp3 format. The temporary .mp4 seems to be downloaded properly, but the .mp3 is either not created or not written to disk. I’m using UNIX timestamp for filenames. I am using the Apify-provided configuration UI, no custom scripting.
