AllTube is not working after fresh install

Not working after fresh install

After a new installation of AllTube on YunoHost, the dowload fails.

Context

• Hardware: VPS / Physical Server
• YunoHost version: 11.21.1.3
• I have access to my server: Through SSH, webadmin and direct access via keyboard / screen
• Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance?: no
• Using, or trying to install package version/branch: Install from webadmin, version 3.1.1~ynh1

Steps to reproduce

When you try to use AllTube after a new fresh install of AllTube, this is the error for all videos tested (Youtube links)

'/usr/bin/python' 'vendor/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/youtube_dl/__main__.py' '--no-warnings' '--ignore-errors' '--flat-playlist' '--restrict-filenames' '--no-playlist' '--dump-single-json' 'https://youtu.be/myvideolink' '-f' 'best[protocol=https]/best[protocol=http]/bestvideo[protocol=https]/bestvideo[protocol=http]' failed with this error:
ERROR: Unable to extract uploader id; please report this issue on https://yt-dl.org/bug . Make sure you are using the latest version; see  https://yt-dl.org/update  on how to update. Be sure to call youtube-dl with the --verbose flag and include its complete output.

This same message is thrown when you try through CLI with the verbose option.

Expected behavior

This error seems to have been resolved in a newer version of youtube-dl or a fork. https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/31530 https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/6253

Same issue with me too

This is a bug in youtube-dl (https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/31530). AFAIU the issue was fixed upstream but no new release has been made since then. @ericgaspar would it be possible / worth switching to a different youtube-dl binary that was built from the master branch?
