All I get is the same error. Youtube must have changed the code again. You have to update the software. Websites like loader.to still work

Firstly, this is just a GUI (Graphical User Interface) for YT-DLP, the software which actually does the downloading from Youtube and elsewhere. Therefore, this app has no control over whether YT-DLP is having a problem and needs to be updated. Secondly, that being said, YT-DLP is absolutely still working to download from Youtube. I've used this app as a GUI for YT-DLP to d/l videos from Youtube several times since you made your post and all of them worked perfectly without error. In any case, if there ever is an actual problem which requires YT-DLP to update its code for a particular website, you need to report that to them, not here.

I already know that. It doesn't work anymore. Never assume anything. I've been on the web longer than you've been on Earth

@ErrorFlynn Hi, In order not to create a new thread, I take advantage of this one to tell you, since some time ago the Updater does not work in my case, it gives me the error “failed to get from GitHub!”

ytdlp-interface-updater

I wonder if it's something in my system or if it's a bug that happens to everyone. Regards,

It was just updated to 2.14.1 and now its working. So when Youtube changes the code I have to use a web downloader and wait for yt-dlp to update their code
