Hi,

for three videos I would like to download from YouTube I'm running into the same error:
Video IDs:

  • S2i1A_mc7Ao
  • Yjt5UoTsB3A
  • azYVl2J1zTY

It looks like the html5-player https://www.youtube.com/s/player/64dddad9/player_ias.vflset/en_US/base.js cannot be identified.

Sample output:

youtube-dl -F "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2i1A_mc7Ao" --verbose

Thx for the hint. I didn't know, that brew-repos for yt-dl are so outdated. Maybe it's worth to write a comment in the main readme that you still need to update yt-dl manually and not via brew.
