YouTube errors

Open CuteSlug opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

First of, thank you for creating such an excellent software.

youtube-dl exited with code 1 (WARNING: Unable to extract video title ERROR: This video is unavailable.)

Happens very often lately and i can't figure out why. Some samples.

youtube-dl needs to be updated. You can do it manually by replacing youtube-dl.exe binary in boram\resources\app directory with https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl.exe until I release a new version.

The same error occurs with the latest youtube-dl in resources folder as well. Anyway the same youtube-dl works perfect from the shell, so that part is not broken. There may have been some changes in youtube-dl API, so something you used to do no longer work that way.

youtube-dl seems to be extremely slow when downloading videos these days. Might want to consider switching to the yt-dlp fork instead.
