HTTP not supported in Windows 10

[JXWw3wLD9LArcR7c]

I can't stream any video with mps-youtube (I type pl https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLe5BK_FUTqyxnBokKE3dh-kS4ET9ibWgJ). It always gives me the error "HTTP is not supported". I am going to detail what I did to install this.

Installation

I recently downloaded this(mpsyt-0.2.8.exe but I renamed it to mpsyt.exe), I placed it on a folder that has youtube-dl.exe, mpv.com, mpv.exe, ffmpeg.exe, ffplay.exe, ffprobe.exe, and gifski.exe (not on the subfolders). I believe this is how you are supposed to install this (ignoring the unnecessary exes mentioned, those are there for different reasons)

Additionally, I followed this https://github.com/mps-youtube/mps-youtube/issues/986#issuecomment-612665074 (dnhuan came up with the fix) which led me to install python both through the website and through the windows store (for some reason, when I did it through the website the commands below didn't work. when I typed "python" it took me to the windows store). I ran the commands as instructed in the comment pip3 install --upgrade mps-youtube pip3 install pafy -U pip3 install --upgrade youtube-dl They all said it worked and they were all updated. And I still have this issue. I also tried copying python.exe and pythonw.exe into the folder where I have mpsyt.exe and it didn't work.

I hope you guys can help me out. I had also set my api key which worked succesfully (didn't have the quota exceeded issue anymore). I couldn't find anyone facing the same issue as me aside from those who managed to fix it using the steps above. This is the first time I am using this.

Your Environment

I tried running the commands again today. For some reason my api key wasn't saved so I had to set it again (I did exit after setting it) I had also ran the commands above again and everything got updated including python, but it still hasn't been solved. I am gonna leave some screenshots here.

Same issue. Followed all steps in #986

i.e.

pip3 install --upgrade mps-youtube pip3 install pafy -U pip3 install --upgrade youtube-dl

version

mpsyt version : 0.2.7.1 notes : released 6 July 2016 pafy version : 0.5.2 (youtube-dl backend) youtube-dl version : 2018.03.14 Python version : 3.6.9 (default, Oct 8 2020, 12:12:24) [GCC 8.4.0] Processor : x86_64 Machine type : x86_64 Architecture : 64bit, ELF Platform : Linux-4.4.0-19041-Microsoft-x86_64-with-Ubuntu-18.04-bionic sys.stdout.enc : UTF-8 default enc : utf-8 Config dir : /home/upstatelloyd/.config/mps-youtube env:TERM : xterm-256color env:SHELL : /usr/bin/zsh env:LANG : C.UTF-8

Noticed my pafy version is 0.5.2

following comment: https://github.com/mps-youtube/mps-youtube/issues/986#issuecomment-573104715

output of install command is

Successfully installed pafy-0.5.5

but mpsyt version does not reflect this.

I was having same issue today with python 3.9.0. Switched to python 3.7.0 and then tried it on python 3.8.0. To my surprise, mpsyt was working fine with both of these python versions.

Using another version does not work, it's the same error.
