YouTube YouTube Video will only download as Audio (6.2.0.6)

[Apotheosis]

Hi, I'm hoping that you folks may be able to help with a strange problem I'm having. I'm trying to download "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" and one of the episodes will only download as audio.

This is the only episode in the season that's been categorised as an "Age Restricted Video" so can only be viewed/downloaded when logged-in. So now that issue has been resolved, I tried again and have the same problem.

Link to Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwezhqnDZoo

I've previously tried across different versions of SF (including using the different methods to get logged in to Google/YT), the latest attempt was after a complete fresh install (removed v6.2.0.5 using Wise).

Any help you folks can give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

It looks like here

Looks like a problem with your logged in status

investigating in progress ..

SF log shows only that you're not logged in (than it's only audio)

Try logout with SF and all browsers (!), close SF then rename SF cache like here
and log in only in SF

Thanks for the response Germania, unfortunately it didn't seem to work.

I've got Firefox and Chrome installed on my PC so opened both and logged out of my google account and closed the browsers, then renamed the cache folder and deleted the existing log. Then lauched SF.

Opened YT in SF and logged into my account (confimed the login via my Google App on my phone). It's definitely logged in as I have premium and it shows on screen (and no adds).

I can definitely download the episode before (not age restricted) [S6E4]

But I still can't download the age restricted episode (but it will play in the browser)

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be extremely grateful (my OCD has kicked in for the one missing episode!)

Cheers,

try copying the URL - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwezhqnDZoo
you should see a box popup saying paste URLs to download select download format video and
see if the video will download.

I still get the same failure unfortunately.




I've got 2 different google accounts and both are verified to play age related content and it has the same failure on both of them

I sadly have to say I only get audio option as well, and I am logged into YouTube.

NOPE also doesn't work, you get an error downloading.

If not DRM protected 6207 works forr me like 6206 (age restricted or not)







"Only" if DRM protected - 6207 change for me from "no analyze" to Audio only
