I was able to fix this issue at least for now in these two commits: https://github.com/randombyte-developer/youtube-dl/commits?author=randombyte-developer Here is a build for linux: https://github.com/randombyte-developer/youtube-dl/releases/tag/yt-fixed-description-1 I wasn't able to find the full description in the HTML anymore. I am regexing some JSON object which seems to be on the page. Idk if that's good enough for this project. |

artistfield in the output JSON isnull. It used to beStromaein this case. It broke for every video I tested, probably 150.This issue probably comes from a bigger change on Youtubes side. #25937 seems similar.
