YouTube download does not start

Willimoon

When I am connected to YouTube, I can select the video quality, and when I start the download, the analysis is performed, but the download does not start (see log file).
In offline mode, the download starts fine, but in low resolution, and I no longer have a choice of quality…

Cool, but then where’s the problem? Maybe the site limits downloads?
Thank you, I will try different approaches (copying the link, changing accounts, etc.)

Willimoon Maybe the site limits downloads?

Of course if you dl to many in short time.
Try different YT acccount and/or IP or wait

as I wrote here
'> And how safe is it to download stuff quickly?

No problem, Caution is advised only when using Amazon or YouTube

I can’t even recall the last time I had to log into YT to download, as I don’t ever use YT Premium.
All my videos download fine. I do have 3-4 YT accounts as back-ups, but YT also is tracking via IP.
So it may soon come to a VPN needed. You will get limited if you download too many videos too fast.
Try to spread videos out over the day.

Thank you both. For now, I’ve reinstalled it and it works.
