same issue. Instagram extraction has been broken |
|
ditto |
|
@dstftw Can you let us know when we can expect this fix available? |
|
If you need it immediately, run or install it directly from source. |
|
@Hrxn Could you show me how to run or install this lib from source code please? I need this fix. Thank you. |

Either way, you first need Python for your OS. Then, grab the source via git or by clicking that green 'clone or download' button to get the source archive file. Extract, navigate to the target directory and run |
youtube-dl -f '[ext=mp4]' --batch-file='baby.txt'
