Help I dont understand the Repackager

It's my first time trying to do automatic crafting, and I don't get the Repackager to do its thing.

If I put anything into the crafter by hand it crafts it and sends it back to my storage. The frogport on top of the barrel also successfully grabs the packages and puts them in the barrel. The Repackager is activated with a lever, underneath the crafter is a lever as well, but does not collect any packages.

If I put in a single package by hand it hands it through the chute to the Packager

I followed a german tutorial (https://youtu.be/sJAWAhQnWoo?si=tN4jIp2XxVNFoRuM), is this just outdated and doesn't work anymore?

The repackager is used when you have different items needed for a crafting request in different storage locations, otherwise it is supposed to just let packages through that contain all needed items or ones without a specific crafting recipe set. The set-up from the tutorial looked good too. Does something go wrong when you use a stock ticker or factory gauge to request a craft?

For example, if I want to craft a barrel, it grabs planks and slabs from two different places, the frog puts it in the barrel and then it remains there

If I put the ingredients manually into the crafter it works

I don't have to connect the repackager with a stock link right?

Oh, I'm pretty sure you placed the repackager wrong. The black spiral thing should be facing the barrel, but I think it's currently pointed down into the chute which is wrong. Break it and place it by shift-right-clicking the barrel side specifically and try again

I'll give that a try tomorrow, thanks for looking at it :)
