other people have the same question.how to solve it!!!!!!

[hxhowl]

I have solution by change 'ccode' with 0501 in new version code youku.py line 157. I have pull request the change file.

[dream4today18888]

when you give me the correct version???

[siddht5]

@dream4today18888 @zcanfly means to say he has already pull requested for the change by changing https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/blob/master/youtube_dl/extractor/youku.py#L157 from ccode': '0502' to ccode': '0501'. which will only be merged by the collaborators/author of youtube-dl project.

If you want it asap then you may need to manually change the code in your system by changing the line number 157 from youtube_dl/extractor/youku.py.

But you have to wait till the code arrives

[westspy]

ccode=0501, can't download the full file. The video length is 10 minutes only.

[dream4today18888]
