Why does youtube-dl want to download "js player vflSzU_20" but not when its working. how can I forbid the use of the js player, its seems to create this issue.
Thank you for your help.

Update youtube-dl with youtube-dl -U (or if you used a package manager use its update function).

Misterodd · 2018-12-31T21:32:27Z

Non relevant information were posted here.... viewable at the "edited" tab the 3.

I have just installed it, so its up-to-date, checked it before I posted it.

eduardog3000 · 2018-12-31T21:34:34Z

Your output says [debug] youtube-dl version 2018.03.14, so it's not up to date. The current version is 2018.12.31. Try running youtube-dl -U.

Misterodd · 2018-12-31T21:37:59Z

Your output says [debug] youtube-dl version 2018.03.14, so it's not up to date. The current version is 2018.12.31. Try running youtube-dl -U.

I'm sorry it was because I got this.

youtube-dl: error: youtube-dl's self-update mechanism is disabled on Debian.
Please update youtube-dl using apt(8).
See https://packages.debian.org/sid/youtube-dl for the latest packaged version.

Its an old version in the Ubuntu repro

eduardog3000 · 2018-12-31T21:39:30Z

You might have to update apt.

sudo apt update

Then run sudo apt install youtube-dl again.

eduardog3000 · 2018-12-31T21:41:50Z

If that doesn't work uninstall from apt and try installing with pip.

Edit: Yeah, it looks like Ubuntu's repo might have an old version. You should probably just use pip.

Still do sudo apt update if you haven't, then:

sudo apt remove youtube-dl
sudo apt install python-pip
pip install youtube-dl

Misterodd · 2018-12-31T21:48:17Z

updated apt, but the version didnt changed.
Done with pip:

Successfully installed youtube-dl-2018.12.31

Yeah now I'm to stupid to use youtube-dl. Ubuntu wants that I install it first via snap or apt.
How can I use pip installed applications?

Thank you for helping me.

eduardog3000 · 2018-12-31T22:04:39Z

It's located in ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages, so either run it with ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/youtube-dl or add ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages to your path.

Or just install it directly:

sudo wget https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl -O /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl

Misterodd · 2018-12-31T22:12:13Z

Ok downloaded it:
Thank you very much! Now it works!

Misterodd · 2018-12-31T22:14:31Z

So in short:
Ever use the original data of youtube-dl.

sudo wget https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl -O /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
