Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/4004

How are you running AnythingLLM?

Docker (local)

What happened?

Open youtube transcript with Data Connecters, enter any youtube video with transcript e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJjsfNO5JTo. It will report error "Failed to get YouTube video transcription: Transcription not found".

Are there known steps to reproduce?

No response

I just submitted fix PR https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/pull/4005 for it. It works very well on my local docker env.

For who want a quick fix before the PR is merge, please just replace collector/utils/extensions/YoutubeTranscript/YoutubeLoader/youtube-transcript.js with https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bobbercheng/anything-llm/refs/heads/master/collector/utils/extensions/YoutubeTranscript/YoutubeLoader/youtube-transcript.js.
