Having this same issue since early this morning (started at around 6AM) and judging by your username, I assume you're in Brazil? If yes what's your ISP? I am on a fiber connection by VIVO. A/B javascript testing perhaps? Videos works via proxies in the US and DE. Edit: I have the dumps generated by |

I have the same issue (germany,1&1 ISP), so it's likely not a issue limited to one location |
|
Here, me too. |
@garoto If you're on windows, could you open the file in a text/code editor and ctrl+F for or if on GNU/linux, you could just run this and copy/paste the output |

This bit?

The dump I've made via a US proxy has this for its value:

Having the same issue here, also Brazil. The issue started around 7 AM (GMT-3), all my auto-download scripts stopped working at that time. Seems to be related to how channels now use a "@customchannelname" instead of the old "/channel/channel_ID" Tried it with over 100 different videos, none of them download, so it's not specific to any channel or video. |
Yep that's the one, thanks. I had a feeling the new I think this should fix the issue diff --git a/yt_dlp/extractor/youtube.py b/yt_dlp/extractor/youtube.py

The patch seems to work. 🏆 |
|
same here, thank you :) |
|
Patch works on my side too, thank you so much. This should be accepted ASAP. |
It does not work for me. |
|
Good morning! Similar problem in Termux, Android. |
|
|
Still getting the error. Let's wait for the next release. |
|
Yeah me to |
|
+1 looking forward to a new release, since it's already fixed |
|
Cite from their Discord-channel, 9:11 AM: Stickied Message: Unable to extract uploader id on Youtube has already been fixed and a new release will be made in a few hours. |
|
Can confirm bashonly's patch works. I previously could not download this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIMX5opqRkU) even with latest updates. After downloading bashonly's patch everything worked fine. |
|
How do I apply this patch on windows? |
|
I successfully installed version from master branch, but I would like to revert to stable. EDIT:
|
|
Solved! :) |
|
Well, particially. The fix is not in the latest official release yet. |
wait a little while for the next update, or use https://github.com/ytdl-patched/yt-dlp/releases/latest (or https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/Installation#:~:text=master%20branch if you have pip installed) |
|
The Windows release on https://github.com/ytdl-patched/yt-dlp/releases/latest triggers Chrome's security safety, is there any known reason for that ? |

Great work! I can imagine it's very stressful having something break and users pile in with the same issue repeatedly. Bravo to a well-functioning team! 👏 |
|
Next time something like this happens, I'll probably lock the repo using GH moderation tools. It's not something I want to do, but dealing with so many duplicates is such a pain |
this also fixes legacy |
After doing this yesterday, every time I run yt-dlp I get a dozen warning messages of the form |

Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood
This error started appearing to me yesterday and almost every video gave this error, but I could download the video after about 3 attempts. But today, all youtube videos are giving this error no matter how many times I try to download it. Can anyone help me?
