  I may be wrong, but should that be youtube-dl.com or youtube-dl.conf?

5. a place for general chat
  
  Having said that I hadn't got an invite... I got the same today; a letter from the NHS (not the surgery) and the paperless option. Not so fussed about the flu vaccine, but I will get it just to make sure I get on the list for when the COVID vaccinations start.

  My wife (61) took her mother to her GP flu clinic and they decided that as a carer and registered at the same practice, she should be jabbed as well. I'm 65 and still waiting for an appointment.

  Except if it is a folded dipole, which will be a DC short circuit. But there I reach my limit of aerial expertise.

  Because I have 2 units and the old app only supports 1, it may have been several months since I tried the app last. So that doesn't necessarily disagree with your observation. Although it is strange that I have the old app still working with Android 6.0.1. I am using the latest webif.

  Entry removal works ok. Still stuck with the HTTP error popup. Strange, because I had used the original version successfully. @Trev ... have you given it a try with the latest update? I have noticed that Google Play doesn't always show the Update button on first visit; visit again and it appears.

  It will now allow no username, but I still get the same error popup. Also, I like the swipe to switch between devices and that it only goes to devices where an IP has been set. However once an IP has been set, it cannot be cleared to remove it from the swipe sequence.

  My WebIf doesn't have a username/password, but the app insists on a username. Setting an arbitrary username just results in a "HTTP error" popup.

  I have different favicons to identify different humaxes. However, I have little artistic ability, so my second humax just has a red 2 cludged in one corner. It is ok on a PC screen, but difficult to differentiate on android. Anyone got any nice ones to share?

  If your HDMI switch box is anything like mine, I don't think there is anything you can do about it. When any input powers up, the box automatically switches to it. There is no way to disable or prioritise.
