Description

WRITE DESCRIPTION HERE I am trying to download some demo video from youtube, to use it inside my Oculus GO. Youtube-dl does not report the 3D SBS format in the list of available format. I have found this old issue that now is closed:

[YouTube] [SOLVED] 3D/2D 360° videos - now encoded in a new, proprietary & non-standard format #15267

I tried to use all the suggestions, first of all the user agent=" " but youtube-dl reports even less formats. Also tried other software and plugin but I can not solve the issue.

Obvioulsly THAT video in my Oculus Go, in Youtube VR, is in 3D format. That video is just an example, there are many others.

Someone knows other tube-sites that have 3D-SBS video, that can be downloaded in 3D-SBS ??

Pornhub (they provide download links though so it’s kind of unnecessary)

Nooo, I mean some generic site, not porn !! Like Vimeo but maybe smaller and not so famous…
