Description

WRITE DESCRIPTION HERE

youtube-dl.exe 'https://youtube.com/watch?v=Qk3FmuuYeeU' can't find the player plugin (same problem with streamlink, so I think this video uses some trick player). In browser everything is well.

Despite running youtube-dl.exe -U and printing info about that it updated itself, it did not. So maybe there is some problem in update process.

Sorry for creating this issue. Video works okay on the last version.

I ran this prior to trying this video:

vadimkantorov@DESKTOP-4UF8FID:/mnt/c/Users/user/Downloads$ ./youtube-dl.exe -U
Updating to version 2020.03.24 ...

But apparently it didn't work
