# YouTube Transcript - Setup Guide
|
||||
|
||||
## Why Residential IP?
|
||||
|
||||
YouTube blocks cloud provider IPs (AWS, Hetzner, GCP, Azure, etc.) from accessing transcripts. Requests from these IPs get 403/429 errors or bot detection.
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:** Route requests through a residential IP via WireGuard VPN to a home router.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
- Python 3.x installed
|
||||
- WireGuard installed on VPS
|
||||
- Access to a residential network (home router with WireGuard support)
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Install Python Dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pip3 install youtube-transcript-api requests
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Configure WireGuard VPN
|
||||
|
||||
You need a WireGuard server on a residential network (home router, NAS, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
### On Your Home Router (Server)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Generate keys
|
||||
wg genkey | tee /etc/wireguard/privatekey | wg pubkey > /etc/wireguard/publickey
|
||||
|
||||
# Configure interface (e.g., /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf or via LuCI/OpenWRT)
|
||||
[Interface]
|
||||
PrivateKey = <router_private_key>
|
||||
Address = 10.100.0.1/24
|
||||
ListenPort = 51820
|
||||
|
||||
[Peer]
|
||||
PublicKey = <vps_public_key>
|
||||
AllowedIPs = 10.100.0.2/32
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Enable masquerading/NAT so the VPS can route traffic through your home IP.
|
||||
|
||||
### On Your VPS (Client)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Generate keys
|
||||
wg genkey | tee /etc/wireguard/privatekey | wg pubkey > /etc/wireguard/publickey
|
||||
|
||||
# Configure /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf
|
||||
[Interface]
|
||||
PrivateKey = <vps_private_key>
|
||||
Address = 10.100.0.2/24
|
||||
Table = 51820
|
||||
|
||||
[Peer]
|
||||
PublicKey = <router_public_key>
|
||||
Endpoint = <your-home-ip-or-ddns>:51820
|
||||
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0
|
||||
PersistentKeepalive = 25
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Bring Up VPN
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
wg-quick up wg0
|
||||
ip rule add from 10.100.0.2 table 51820
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Verify
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl --interface 10.100.0.2 ifconfig.me # Should show your home IP
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Configure Script (If Needed)
|
||||
|
||||
Edit `scripts/fetch_transcript.py` and adjust:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
VPN_INTERFACE = "wg0" # Your WireGuard interface name
|
||||
VPN_SOURCE_IP = "10.100.0.2" # Your VPS's WireGuard IP
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|
||||
|-------|-------|----------|
|
||||
| VPN not available | WireGuard down | Script auto-retries; check `wg show` |
|
||||
| Transcripts disabled | Creator disabled captions | No workaround |
|
||||
| No transcript found | No captions in requested languages | Try different language codes |
|
||||
| RequestBlocked | VPN not routing properly | Verify `curl --interface <VPN_IP> ifconfig.me` shows residential IP |
|
||||
|
||||
## Alternatives to WireGuard
|
||||
|
||||
If you can't set up WireGuard:
|
||||
- **SSH tunnel**: `ssh -D 1080 user@home-server` + configure SOCKS proxy
|
||||
- **Residential proxy service**: Bright Data, Oxylabs, SmartProxy (paid)
|
||||
- **Tailscale/ZeroTier**: Easier setup than raw WireGuard
