When I run any of demos, I get an error. Any suggestions?

Are you connected to the internet? The demos download YouTube videos via the pytube package.

[amirhosk]

Yes, do I need to update my pytube lib?

[wmcnally]

Perhaps. Please use this one, which has a recent patch: $ pip install git+https://github.com/baxterisme/pytube

[amirhosk]

Still doesn't work. How can I run it on an image in my pc to make sure the issue isn't relevant to pytube?

[wmcnally]

It's not working for me either. I can assure you it's a pytube issue. YouTube must have changed their formatting and therefore pytube requires a new patch. This must have happened today. I will look into a fix and additionally provide a general script to process a local video.

[wmcnally]

It worked for me today. Can you try again? Maybe youtube was down...

[amirhosk]

It's working for me as well, thanks

@amirhosk FYI I uploaded a static image demo

[amirhosk]
