Token parameter missing in youtube-dl #20799
Comments
|
Been retired 10 years. Former geek, current dinosaur. Running Ubuntu 18.04/2 Desktop. Just installed youtube-dl on this version 2 hours ago to download a rare '50's video. Have used this app occasionally on earlier versions of Ubuntu over the past few years. Hadn't installed app on this version prior to today, so it should be fully up to date. Error log attached (output from "youtube-dl --verbose https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P94ypz9Pzio >/tmp/error.log 2>&1") error.log |

The other copy of the same movie on youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P94ypz9Pzio) produces an identical error. |

As your log indicates, you are running (outdated) version |
DYTa6oaRGWA: "token" parameter not in video info for unknown reason; please report this issue on https://yt-dl.org/bug . Make sure you are using the latest version; type youtube-dl -U to update. Be sure to call youtube-dl with the --verbose flag and include its complete output.
