Description

Today I noticed that the following download fails. Also other downloads also fails with the same error.

Now I wonder how to compile youtube-dl from sources on my Windows 10.
Is there a convenient way to make exe file? Or somebody to provide the compiled exe of dev build?

No, you didn't. Quite obviously not. But you couldn't resist ticking that checkbox, couldn't you...?

No, I did. I found quite similar issue but thought that it's caused by some different reasons. Sorry if I am wrong.

Looks like it's fixed but not released yet.
#31577 (comment)

As far as I see the problem is youtube changed some output format that youtube-dl can not handle properly.

Duplicate of #31530.

All: the team has created a patch/interim fix available here: https://github.com/ytdl-patched/youtube-dl/releases/tag/2023.02.18.1919

I understand that for some of you, English is a second language. Just please always do your best in reporting issues because the dev team works hard and dealing with the actual issues is hard enough.

EDIT: These are my opinions. I am not affiliated with the dev team and i do not speak for them -- thanks.

Yeah Okay.
