The youtube-dl script all of a sudden stopped
working today.
I went to their website and there's only one issue open on this, from several days
ago, no replies, seems to be no action on this.
Is youtube-dl actively maintained? Did Google make it impossible for youtube-dl to work
anymore? What's the story? Is anyone working on fixing this? Are there alternatives
that actually still work?
Thanks.

hallo,
as i know, youtube-dl is a script which is changing pretty often,
because youtube himself do some changes...the version in sidux repo is
2010.07.14-1 and it worked just two or 3 days ago, but not any more. the
error is the same phillip has: ERROR: format not available for video
i suppose that is gonna be updated soon.
...ok, i just rechecked - on the youtube-dl site, there is already an
update and it works well here:
http://bitbucket.org/rg3/youtube-dl/wiki/Home
Thanks! That works now.
I'd forgotten to check their repository too, which might have gotten me a working
version a day or two ago.
Thanks again everyone.
