[Bug] Only html is downloaded from VK video

[iG8R]

Hi. The title says for itself. For some reason, the plugin does not process videos from VK.

[iG8R]

For instance, https://vk.com/video-24440848_456240578 or https://vk.com/video/playlist/-24440848_54694294

1st link works for me:

Second link shouldn't work as it is just a playlist, not a link to the video.

But in my case the situation is opposite :(

PS. Here is the information about the add-on.

Would like to add that Yuotube videos are downloaded OK. Also re-installed Python and the red message is gone, but the issue with VK is still there. Is there debug info somewhere that I could turn on to see what's causing the problem?

Hi. I have the same issue (only html) with YouTube and VK too.

Make sure you have installed the latest version, I don't have any of these problems with 1.0.6.

I have 1.06 version. And few weeks all works fine..But then the download from YT stopped working. I think, this issue is linked with 'Python ver.’ OR ‘Multi Phyton versions in system', maybe. I work in MacOS Ventura, and i have few version of Phyton.

p. s. thanks for a great plugin, hopes, I can understand how to return the performance of the plugin.

"Pyhon 3.7 or higher is required" message - is an FDM issue. You need to contact their support. Btw, while it's parsed correctly, I still can't download - getting HTTP 400. Don't know if it's FDM's issue of YT-DLP's one.

Please check 1.0.12 version of the add-on. Please make sure you have the latest version of FDM.
