You can download it from bullseye-backports. If you're a backports user, just install it and check out the CLI options you normally use, in case they've been tweaked, with: $ yt-dlp -help | lessAnd, I had been able to download videos from some streaming hosts, but, find that I cannot download videos from other streaming hosts. By download, I mean saving to my computer - so that I can get continuity, and, replay the streamed videos at slower speeds, and, manipulate the sound, so that I (having a hearing disability that affects my ability to hear what is spoken) can better hear what is being said, which is important for educational videos, such as at Rootstech 2023, where I cannot download significant videos.The yt-dlp dependencies are all unversioned, so rather than put backports into my sources.list, I just checked that I had them all, downloaded yt-dlp….deb from the Packages page, and installed it with the apt-get install /full-path-to/yt-dlp….deb syntax. (The backports youtube-dl package used to get very long in the tooth at times, so I've done this frequently in the past.) Whenever downloading fails, I check out whether there's a more up-to-date version with the yt-dlp -U option. Apparently there's a bug in yt-dlp at the moment, but I don't think either of us uses mpv /with/ the downloader, but only /after/ downloading has completed.I had downloaded and installed yt-dlp, but, that did not work, either.Writing "did not work" just doesn't cut it on this list: we need some specifics.
