Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/tubearchivist/browser-extension/issues/21

Heya,

when I'm trying to set up the companion I simply get the following error after entering the URL:

Unexpected token '<', "
<!doctype "... is not valid JSON

I don't even have to enter a API key for it to display that error.
I'm hosting Tube Archivist on my Synology as a Docker container with the default port of 8000. If it's also important, I'm using Brave (which is Chromium based).

probably not a correct address for the TA url. What did you enter?

make sure it's from your example where synology is hosting tubearchivist, e.g.

http://192.168.1.10:8000 obviously replacing the IP address with your synology server IP address.

I entered the NAS hostname followed by the port, web access with the same URL works fine.

Nevermind, scrap this... I've discovered I'm an idiot and did indeed forget to add something to the URL to make it work...
Sorry ^^"
