I want to be clear that using -i, --ignore-errors isn't a great solution as noted on some other issue threads. With that being said if thats the solution, why youtube-dl can't download some videos that other programs can download them without a hitch? Edit: This is obviously a repost from the main post itself, but I want to know the anwser to my question. |

Well, on one hand I do have to sincerely apologise to you that I just didn't realise how obvious it was that youtube can't download a video that has been deleted from youtube (even though the dead link stayed in my playlist), but you closed both of my threads. I implied that this reason applies for both of my errors, but the video that youtube dl tried to download is still up on youtube alive and well. That video is definitely downloadable. But I probably guess that its geo restriced and I have to use one of the commands that makes me able to downlaod geo restricted videos? |

The playlist link I am trying to download from:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-hVkZ0mXmgKgCXbuHc8e2RqZsNIZzdbR
Haven't got the slighest idea on how to fix this, that's why I came here for help.
I have read through the extensive FAQ lists, and even though I did read it, if I missed it I am deeply sorry.
Though some explanations I have found that relates to my issue is that I should update my youtube-dl (twice) ( https://i.imgur.com/39IhVkR.png and https://i.imgur.com/5sG2OdW.png ) or this ( https://i.imgur.com/72Kxiz4.png )
Again if its plain obvious what's the solution to my issue, I am sorry
Edit: I have just realised I posted a lot of lines of cmd prompt, but the FAQ told me to post the whole thing so🤷♂
