Hello and greetings all,
I have been using FFMPEG and Youtube-dl on Windows for a long time.
Recently I have migrated over to linux and I installed FFMPEG and Youtube-dl using the method., sudo apt install ffmpeg and sudo apt install youtube-dl
FFMPEG Appears to work fine with the exception that the grammar of the commands appears a bit more finicky.
However youtube-dl commands all seem to return the same sort of problem.
youtube-dl -F https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmZXCqqx6q0
[youtube] FmZXCqqx6q0: Downloading webpage
ERROR: FmZXCqqx6q0: YouTube said: Unable to extract video data
I will also approach this from a troubleshooting avenue via youtube-dl but was hoping something would jump out to people if I did something wrong in the installation, or that maybe I have to configure something in Ubuntu.
Id appreciate any help or being pointed in a new direction.
Thanks!
