How can anyone help?

No log, not much info. YouTube works for others, so a log my pinpoint what’s wrong.

Looks like yt-dlp need an update for Premium content (like for IQIYI) -> so log out

I have never paid for YouTube Premium and never will ..
.. so they can invest more in preventing ad blockers and downloads

Melcitron

so it’s due to Youtube Premium not available?

Germania

Melcitron so it’s due to Youtube Premium not available?

I suspect so ..
.. but for the reason mentioned above, I can’t test it myself

TomG69

Sorry, but the downloading for all tested links is not possible.
For example

The Download break with the massage “The Downloaded file is empty”!

With that little info I can only guess you are using Mac as Windows has 7007.
Not that that should make a difference because at least 7005,6 and 7 have same YT downloader version.
Which is the latests official release of it.
I tried the same link on 7007 Windows and it works.

Stan001 I tried the same link on 7007 Windows and it works.

TomG69

Okay, I updated to 7.0.0.7 (Windows) and the download still isn’t working. SF tries twice and then displays “The downloaded file is empty”. I’m attaching a fresh log; maybe that will help. Thanks!

I really can’t see much in log.
Maybe @Germania will.
I do know that for me that video is only available in max 1080p for me As your screenshot shows it attempting 4320p.
So not sure if you have YT premium or maybe some other issue.

I am also recently having problems with YouTube downloads. It all started last Friday or Saturday. Same errors and issues as shared above, with analysis failing. Occasionally, I manage to download one or two videos successfully, but that’s the exception, not the norm.

For grins, and to test, I went back and installed v6257 — same problems. So now I’m re-installing v7007 and will wait and see what additional info is shared here. Looks like YouTube has become unavailable for a while.

AceExplorer

UPDATE: 7007 and 7008 were removed from general release. If you have the extended download service, you will be able to see this. Hopefully new releases are coming soon.

Stan001

YouTube will always be an issue.
I still have no issue with 7007, it uses the latest standard yt-dlp version 2025.12.08.
Although SF is behind in versions for deno.
Latest v2.6.5, SF uses 2.5.6.

Made a new post about file is empty.
