Podsync is running without issue and I've configured my feed to update every 10 minutes but feeds don't update , and aren't seen in the ID1 XML file

[server]
port = 8080
data_dir = "/app/data"
hostname = "external IP:8080"

[tokens]
youtube = "MY PLAYLIST"

[feeds]
[feeds.ID1]
url = MY PLAYLIST
update_period = "10m" # Set to 10 minutes
quality = "best" # Using the highest resolution available
format = "video" # Video format
max_height = 1080

Optional feed customizations

[feeds.ID1.custom]
title = "High Quality Podcast Feed"
description = "A feed for high-quality videos, updated every 10 minutes."
author = "Generated by Podsync"
lang = "en"

[database]
badger = { truncate = true, file_io = true } # Ensures optimized memory usage

[downloader]
self_update = true # Automatically updates youtube-dl every 24 hours
timeout = 15

may need cookie

Even when I use cookies it doesn't work, I'm using Brave on Ubuntu and got the cookies using an addon.

Do you know if there's another way to get cookies manually without an addon that I can try? And where do I put the cookies, do I put their location in the config.toml file or do I run it in the terminal?

Can anyone share any documentation on how to get and use these cookies to get this working?

@Esildor in your feed definition, add one line:
youtube_dl_args = [ "--cookies", "/app/cookies.txt"]
