Having the same problem. |

Having the same issue as well: |
|
Same issue. Works on some videos but not others. |
|
What version is that actually supposed to be?
Maybe try updating FFmpeg. |
|
I tired updating everything and nothing worked for me so I took matters into my own hands a found a work around.
In case if anyone was wondering about the files I have in the target directory: |
|
? Fix that formatting please. |
|
(Apologies for lack of formatting) So I used
I then proceeded to change the location from the target folder to the where it's located in windows and got the same error I also updated scoop and ran it again and still received the same error. I even also updated ffprobe as well and still receive the same error. |

Okay, first of all, that result of I'm starting to think it's not the ffmpeg version. I will see if I can reproduce.. Second, for debugging etc. please run youtube-dl with Like this: |
|
Ok that seemed to work fine with no errors and the mp3 file is in the directory opposed to the .webm file: |
|
Good. Yeah, just wanted to say, works for me as well. |
|
I'm definitely ok with waiting a little bit longer for conversion vs having it flat out fail. Thanks for the recommendation and your help @Hrxn !. |
|
Still doesn't work for me. |
Of course.. and after all, it's a two hours long audio file. @michaelcaterisano Try it with an updated ffmpeg version.. |
|
I'm on version 3.4 which is the highest I can find. It does work on some videos, but not others.

@michaelcaterisano i don't understand why you pass a Gmail urls to youtube-dl, obviously the file that has been downloaded is not a media file(most likely it's an html file) and ffmpeg won't be able to anything with it. |
|
wowie, typo in the thread. Same result with this youtube link though.
|
|
That still shows
I don't know what this is. Normally, ffmpeg always prints it real version number, or the commit ID if it's a git build, but not Not completely sure about macOS, but I'd guess it is the same there. |

works fine for me: @michaelcaterisano post the output of |
