Comments

The toplist extractor was for playlists like this one (see #1868), they needed special treatment because they couldn't be accessed with an url, that's why you had to use But the url posted here is different, it's a mix generated for the video 3zTYIKJOM9Y. |
I'm trying to download the following mix:

with link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zTYIKJOM9Y&list=RD3zTYIKJOM9Y

youtube-dl --verbose "yttoplist:music:Mix van: Delilah - Inside My Love (Redlight Remix)" but this only results in an error. Am i doing something wrong?
youtube-dl --verbose "yttoplist:music:Mix van: Delilah - Inside My Love (Redlight Remix)"
