Description
Take this as an example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sv_2LzgoB0
No error message will be logged because there is no html tag with unavailable message.
However there is playabilityStatus in ytInitialData which tells some information.
I could be wrong, but this video ID seems truncated. It's not even playable in browser.. Also, I've tried it with the last available update of the original ytdl and the error message confirms this:
