Hi, first of all thanks for this very good asset. Is very easy to use. I have a question: i downloaded the zip project and i was testing it, but i found that it was very good with some youtube videos but with others it had problems. i am looking the reason. Maybe some one could know. following is a list with some videos that did worked and the list that didn't work. Any help to clarify the reason will be very appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for reporting this issue. I suspect that for some videos, youtube has more protection, and it verifies that the ip that requested the video is also the one that downloaded it. I tried it through the service and through a local youtube-dl command, and got different results.

This COULD justify having this package operate on two options: using the service, or a local cli of youtube-d (for desktop only).

What is your target os?

youtube-dl seems to be able to pass ip address as a network option https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl#network-options. There's also ways to pass in other information like cookies or headers. We will need to investigate this further.

1.5.1 should address this issue on desktop platforms through local youtube-dl call. This will still be an issue on other platforms, such as mobile.
