Somebody on here got back to me a while ago and you don’t put the entire URL, just the video ID at the end of the URL, and it works perfect.

Wow while everyone’s here I know this probably goes against forum decorum,but I  have a css landing page template for a website that I gotta get done today and I can’t get the page to format/render correctly… I’m using concrete CMS and of course they’ve taken all of the necessary steps to make it as difficult as possible for customers to get what they want.  I had some code that worked as an override to the CMS but maybe I just put it in the wrong location. Any tips greatly appreciated.

just the video ID at the end of the URL

As I said at https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/pull/30577#issuecomment-1292927326 , I'm still impressed that this is possible in YTDL but not YT itself lol
