Description Laszlo 2023-02-17 18:16:56 UTC
I'm getting the "Unable to extract uploader id" error with youtube videos. It seems to have been fixed in upstream.

Are you sure you're using yt-dlp-2023.2.17? That's the fixed version that got released today and it seems to work fine for me.

try `yt-dlp --version`

In the future, please include the package category (net-misc) in the bug summary.
Comment 3 Laszlo 2023-02-17 18:33:19 UTC
You are right, I had an outdated binary in my ~/bin folder
