And can this be the reason that not all videos from YouTube are played in vlc through the "open url" tab?

As for youtube-dl, the default download has not been working on my version of MX18 for a long time. And this is how it works:

Code: Select all

youtube-dl -f 'bestvideo[height<=1080]+bestaudio/best[height<=1080]' https://youtu.be/...

Code: Select all

youtube-dl -f 'bestvideo[height<=720]+bestaudio/best[height<=720]' https://youtu.be/...

Code: Select all

...

Youtube-dl 20.09.14 is now in the main MX 17-19 repos.

VLC uses some internal script to get Youtube URLs, not youtube-dl. They may have a fixed version of the script in a github update, though.

FI: Not so great this new version of Youtube-dl 20.09.14 , I have now a lot of problems of dependencies. And I can not reinstall smplayer after (and it's worst within my amd64 version, ask to delete chromium, and a lot of softwares if I want this update)
Ex:

Code: Select all

Les paquets suivants ont été complètement supprimés :
youtube-dl

Les paquets suivants ont été supprimés :
smplayer
smplayer-l10n
smplayer-themes

Les paquets suivants ont été installés :
python3-pyxattr (0.6.1-1)
rtmpdump (2.4+20151223.gitfa8646d.1-2)

Thanks much for the youtube-dl update, Stevo. Although it works every bit as good as the previous version, it does NOT fix the problem originally reported. But that isn't a surprise since it appears that the real problem has to do with mpv. The problem is resolved after updating that, since it pulls in the latest ffmpeg libraries.

BTW, @oops: I haven't noticed any problems with dependencies or SMPlayer with the latest youtube-dl update.

Strange, maybe because I also have some MXPI tests libraries up to date ?

Almost certainly the cause.

... Yes , it's the case, so I keep my old youtube.dll ... thanks @anticapitalista


Edit: FI solved by doing:

# Under synaptic
synaptic-pkexec
remove smplayer
remove youtube.dl

# Under MXPI:
su-to-root -x -c mx-packageinstaller &
install youtube.dl MXPI tab tests

# Under synaptic
install smplayer
