Description

WRITE DESCRIPTION HERE
The video in question is public on YouTube and part of channel https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=UUo2Zp6o4nH3sGHeP2DJr9Dw. I successfully downloaded the 589 other videos from this channel using the two line Python snippet:

with youtube_dl.YoutubeDL({'verbose': True}) as ydl:
...             video = ydl.extract_info(video, download=True)

... but it failed with this one. I tried downloading just this video (not the whole playlist) and it failed in the same way.

I'm afraid I can't suggest a solution as I've no clue why it might be failing after 0 retries. I see a similar issue was raised in 2015 which was fixed apparently, so perhaps there's something there worth revisiting?

Good luck, and thanks for an otherwise excellent product!
