Been using yt-dlp for a long time. Now youtube vids are not downloading. This is what I get...
Entering <sudo apt install yt-dlp> show version 2024.04.09-1 is install and is the latest version although a search shows that there is a newer version from 2025. I have ffmpeg installed.
Any ideas?
Code:
$ vidl
enter url: https://youtu.be/LkokN_wO7W
bash: cd: Downloads: No such file or directory<
