When a youtube url is passed the following error is raised

CipherError: Couldn't cipher the signature. Maybe YouTube has changed the cipher algorithm. Notify this issue on GitHub: Could not find JS function ' rr'

Hi @Sunil02324, thats a problem with pytube. https://github.com/nficano/pytube/issues/88

Looks like they fixed it on the last update, try updating pip install -U pytube

If the problem continue, if you could, try downloading this video with youtube-dl https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl If it works, report back!

I'm considering change to then, looks like they are more stable, and also downloads from vimeo and others..
