libvideo: Invalid request URI error

Hi! Thanks for your great library. Today, it appears this error when I try to download a video: “An invalid request URI was provided. The request URI must either be an absolute URI or BaseAddress must be set.” I did not change anything in the code… I’m just using these simple lines:

Dim DestFile1 As String = GetPath() & "\Videos\" & Filename & ".mp4"
Dim video1 = YouTube.Default.GetVideo("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlBIpwtNxxE")
File.WriteAllBytes(DestFile1, video1.GetBytes)

I tried to use http instead of https, but same issue.

Please can you help me to fix?

Thanks a lot!

Can confirm. It’s happening on most videos, even ones that have recently worked before

Youtube is messing around thats why “VideoLibrary” is not working on all vides any more
