I came across a YouTube video which YDL-UI failed to download:

Screen:

YDL-UI 2 6 4 - 2020-01-25 - 001

Another youtube-dl front-end- Vividl, also failed to get this video:

Screen:

Vividl 0 1 0 0 - 2020-01-25 - error - 001

But a commercial video downloader managed to get this video:

Screen:

MP4 Downloader Pro 3 31 1 - 2020-01-25 - 002

I suppose that the problem is within youtube-dl but since I encountered this problem I am reporting it.

Can you confirm that YDL-UI fails to download this particular video?

I didn't have an issue. Try updating youtube-dl.exe within the bin folder, by using the update button in Settings > Binaries or manually replacing the file.

If that doesn't fix the issue, the problem is within youtube-dl.

I can confirm. That's what I did this morning (I'm always only using the bin/command-line) It refused downloading and ask me to update. So, youtube-dl -U, wait for it to complete and than close and re-open, everything went back to normal ☺️👍

Updating youtube-dl really fixed the issue- version 2020.1.1.0 was unable to download the above mentioned video, version 2020.1.24.0 downloaded the video without problem.
