Whether I use Y2mate.com or youtube-dl I am getting errors regarding Absolute addressing.
What is this and how do I correct a problem which did not exist in 15.2 before and seems to be part of 15.5 now???
About a month ago youtube-dl stopped working for me with on Leap 15.4 This led me to try a fork of youtube-dl called yt-dlp. It pulls content from youtube slicker than snails through a goose! I wonder if youtube didn't change something that threw off youtube-dl. yt-dlp appears to be more current. There was a bit of a problem running it though. It had a python version dependency not satisfied by the installed python system. So I installed Anaconda which addressed the problem. Anaconda can be installed per-user and can live solely within a user's home directory, so it doesn't interfere with operating system functions. Of course, this might not be your problem, but it might be worth a try. Regards, Lew
