Nope. All clear from Malaysia.


Is there any other alternative to download videos from Youtube in

GitHub directly - https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/tag/2024.04.09

yt-dlp is a currently maintained version via forking compared to ytdl.

Right.  Ask someone to explain what all is involved with getting a
packet from  to  on the Internet.  I suspect most would
ask "What's a packet?"

  My wife knows that won't work; she skips directly to the "can

Try explaining?  If they don't want to know that's one thing but if
you keep it simple enough maybe they'll listen & learn something.

I'm really not a very technical personal at heart, but what I found at
once slightly disturbing and mildly surprising was the lack of
understanding of how the whole shebang works for a majority of my
contemporaries. I mean, my wife went to the url of the youtube video,
downloaded *that* from her browser, and then expressed a certain
confusion that what she had downloaded onto her hard drive was not the
video itself, but something else entirely.

There was no use trying to explain to her anything at all; she only
wanted the video for her friend, and if I could get it for her, that was
the full extent of her desire. She wasn't interested in understanding
how it "works" fundamentally. Her attitude was and is: you're interested
in that sort of thing, but I'm not and am not going waste my time with
whatever it is.

There are many intelligent people floating around the world with similar
attributes. What can you do for them but what you can do for them?

-U, --updateCheck if updates are available. As yt-dlp
has been installed via apt, you should use
that to update.  If you're on a stable
release, also check backports.

The youtube-dl package in Debian 12 is a transitional package which

My experience was similar to Bret's, only I'd long got used to not
just taking Debian's proferred version, but checking whether there
was a newer version somewhere around. It was in February 2023 when
I found that even the most modern version of youtube-dl that I could
find would still not work with some sites that had worked before.
That's when I stumbled upon yt-dlp, and realised the world had
quietly moved on.

This was in the days of bullseye, and note that bullseye still has
a /normal/ youtube-dl package, 34 months old, and no yt-dlp package.
For the latter, you need to be running backports (and I have no idea
when yt-dlp entered bullseye-backports).

It kind of reminds me of the mplayer, mpv, and the debian multimedia
site melange of a few years ago, only there there was more discussion
of rival versions (and the perils of using that site) on the list.

Let's face it:  yt do their level best to stop stuff like this working,
so the latest version being available via the backport mechanism can only

So don't use that.

The Debian package youtube-dl is NOT actually youtube-dl any more.  It
is a transitional package that brings in yt-dlp instead.

That site works here, but I don't think that's important. It appears
to offer youtube-dl 2021.12.17, which is /ancient/.

You'd be better off just installing Debian's yt-dlp in the usual
manner. And you can do better than that at the moment, by using
the backports version, 2024.04.09-1~bpo12+1.

If the backports version falls behind, you can usually install the
version from unstable (now trixie), because yt-dlp's dependencies
are all unversioned. The medium term disadvantage of this approach
is that it won't be upgraded automatically when a new version
appears: you have to keep an eye out.

Cheers,
David.

I have been unable to use youtube-dl for (I believe) over a year, now, 
due, I believe, to changes made by youtube, and, had been unable to use 
yt-dlp .


Then, after reading the above post by David Wright, I updated my 
installed version of yt-dlp to the backports version 
2024.04.09-1~bpo12+1, and, yt-dlp is merrily working.


The latest version of youtube-dl , makes it too old to try to use now; 
if you can get it working with youtube, good luck to you.

That site works here, but I don't think that's important. It appears
to offer youtube-dl 2021.12.17, which is /ancient/.

You'd be better off just installing Debian's yt-dlp in the usual
manner. And you can do better than that at the moment, by using
the backports version, 2024.04.09-1~bpo12+1.

If the backports version falls behind, you can usually install the
version from unstable (now trixie), because yt-dlp's dependencies
are all unversioned. The medium term disadvantage of this approach
is that it won't be upgraded automatically when a new version
appears: you have to keep an eye out.

Cheers,
David.

GitHub directly - https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/tag/2024.04.09

yt-dlp is a currently maintained version via forking compared to ytdl.
