This happens with some (about half of the ones I tested) niconico videos whenever I try to play them directly through mpv using ytdl, however, if I try to download the video directly through yotube-dl, it works just fine.
I don't have flash player installed.
The youtube-dl is the same version on both of them (which is also the latest)
Pic related is on mpvhq-win64, but I get the same error when I try to play it on Linux Mint using vanilla mpv.
Pic related of it working perfectly fine with other nicovideos.
Are you sure about this? It even says to report this issue to youtube-dl. It fails with youtube-dl on the command line too with -J.
PS: in case you don't know, here's where you should report it: https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues/
I thought about reporting it there, but since it was working with youtube-dl I thought here would be the place. Anyway, thanks.
but since it was working with youtube-dl
The video in your screenshot doesn't (for me).
The Megpoid video requires logging into niconico; a plain youtube-dl
invocation for that video fails, but having it log in allows it to work. Bad Apple has no log-in restriction on it, which is why that works.
Just pass --ytdl-raw-options="username=<username>,password=<password>"
to mpv, substituting the actual log-in credentials. Then it should work.
