Description

So I use mpv to stream Crunchyroll, and when I was trying to play it kept giving

[ytdl_hook] youtube-dl failed: unexpected error ocurred
Failed to recognize file format.

Exiting... (Errors when loading file)

So I tried running a skip download test on youtube-dl and had the same issue.
