Tried downloading a YT video, the download started normally then this error appeared (second image)then the progress window closed(I used OBS to get this lol) and this was the remaining file (first image).
I also sometimes get this error with other videos before the download even starts (third image).
Same error (third image) when choosing the audio option.

If this is a firewall issue, please tell me what I should try to test to fix this.
I use Bitdefender antivirus, but it doesn't flag anything, just in case you need this info.

It seems like an issue with YT-DLP, not the script. This happens when it's outdated, I will update the included yt-dlp file with the latest, but for now try updating it manually by going to powershell and execute: "yt-dlp -U"
Also did you try other links? are they all the same issue?

Currently it works with X, Twitch, Reddit, Tiktok, Instagram and Youtube. The link you have in clipboard will show the site's name in context menu.

And thanks for the update, yt-dlp updated version will be included in the next update

X, Twitch, TikTok, YT, and Insta worked, I couldn't figure out how to do Reddit, but I'm assuming it will work too.

NP, that would be great, thanks.

This is fixed and updated to a GUI that shows thumbnail and video name before downloading. (Thumbnail doesn't work for reddit)
