this project is dead
looks like last commit and package release was over two years ago

there is an issue for the same (or very similar) thing on the original pytube pytube repo

i uninstalled pytube3
and installed pytube with --upgrade (as i think i saw mentioned somewhere, but i'm not sure it's necessary)

python -m pip uninstall pytube3
python -m pip install pytube --upgrade

then downloading one of the streams by itag worked fine

(although the webm has no audio, last time i used pytube, webms downloaded with audio and video... oh well, i guess i'll figure that out too)

[movraxrsp]

the video only webm is dash versus progressive

i thought this might be the cause

downloading dash streams requires download separate streaams, one audio and one video, then post-processing with ffmpeg or something similar

so if there are progressive streams available for your video, that's obviously the most convenient to download

cheers!

here's the documentation link
