Locals Bitchute Rumble DailyMotion Brighteon Odysee
Selenium Selenium Selenium Selenium Selenium LBRY API

Installation

  1. Install .Net Framework 3.5
    • This can be installed directly through Windows by going to Start > Turn Windows Features On or Off > check the checkbox next to “.NET Framework 3.5” > Click OK
  2. Install SeleniumBasic to control Chrome
    • Make sure to “Run as Administrator” on the file when installing so that it gets installed to C:\Program Files\SeleniumBasic. Otherwise it will get installed to \AppData\ and the Poster will not be able to connect to Selenium and to Chrome.
  3. Download latest ChromeDriver for your Chrome version so Selenium can connect to Chrome for automation
    • Open Chrome and type in about::version into the URL bar. The very first line will tell you what Chrome version you have
    • After downloading, extract “chromedriver_win32.zip” and move the extracted chromedriver.exe to: C:\Program Files\SeleniumBasic\chromedriver.exe
    • NOTE: The chromedriver will need to be re-downloaded whenever Chrome updates to keep up with API changes
  4. Install the LBRY Desktop Application
    • Once installed log into your account, and also add your LBRY Channel ID to the settings.ini file
  5. Download the latest .exe of the Uploader
    • When run, the Uploader will automatically create the folders and files it requires in the directory it's run from.

Settings

The Poster reads & saves its settings to a settings.ini file located in the same directory as itself. All customization, including custom profile URLs for websites are stored here. The required fields are:

[General]
RootDirToStartIn=ParentFolderForAllYourVideoProjects
ShowTooltipProgress=1
DiscordWebhookBotURL=
DiscordVideosWebhookURL=
DiscordErrorLoggingWebhookBotURL=
DiscordUsernameID=
LBRYNewVideoStakeAmount=1.0

Using Portable Version of Chrome

Using a portable version of Chrome will give you full control over chrome and chromedriver updates.

  1. To use a portable version of Chrome, download an up to date version of Chrome-for-Testing, extract the chrome-win64 folder and move it to the \Lib\ directory: eg: \Freedomain-Video-Uploader\Lib\chrome-win64\chrome.exe

  2. Then download the win64 chromedriver for that version and move it to C:\Program Files\SeleniumBasic\chromedriver.exe

Uncaught Errors

I have done my best to catch any possible errors that might pop up and write functionality to handle them. But If an error happens that i haven't written resolves for, it will pop up a message box that looks like this. Please send me a screenshot so I can write a patch for the bug.

Compiling to .exe from Source
