• JW Player can't play mp4 video downloaded from youtube

  20 January 2015, by kheya

  I have doenloaded am mp4 video using IE Realplayer plugin from youtube.
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3a80c5Ar3Y

  I have a test site on my local machine where I have HTML5 JW Player.

  I download the video and then play locally using realplay to see if it plays.
  I notice that not all mp4 downloads from youtube plays in Realplayer.
  The ones that play in Realplayer also play in JW Player on local website.
  But the mp4 files that don’t play in Realplayer also don’t play in JW player.

  This is the error I get in the player:
  the video playback was aborted due to a corruption problem or because the video used features your browser didnot support mylocalsite/xyz.mp4 undefined

  I tested IE, FF, Chrome. It works nowhere.

  Here is my jw player setup and html:

  <video src="mylocalsite/test.mp4" type="video/mp4" poster="mylocalsite/test.jpg" width="640" height="360"></video>

  player setup:

  var modes = '';
  
  var swfPath = '/content/jw/player.swf';
  
              if (navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().match(/(android)/) || navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().match(/(chrom)/)) {                
  
                  modes = [{ type: 'flash', src: swfPath }, { type: "html5"}];
  
              } else {
  
                  modes = [{ type: 'html5' }, { type: 'flash', src: swfPath }, { type: "download"}];
  
              }
  
  
  
  jwplayer('container').setup({                
  
                  'flashplayer': swfPath,                
  
                  'width': '640',
  
                  'height': '360',
  
                  'provider': 'video',
  
                  'modes': modes,                
  
              });

  What can be causing this issue?

• Youtube DL Unable to get local issuer certificate - CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED

  24 November 2022, by Casper Kristiansson

  I'm trying to use youtube DL with FFmpeg to download an m3u8 stream. Just recently I started receiving this error:

  


  ERROR: Unable to download webpage: <urlopen error="error" verify="verify" unable="unable" to="to" get="get" local="local" issuer="issuer" certificate="certificate">&#xA;(caused by URLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1,&#xA;&#x27;[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed:&#xA;unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:992)&#x27;)))&#xA;</urlopen>

  


  I know Youtube DL supports an option for nocheckcertificate but by enabling this after a couple of minutes the target machine will refuse the connection. When trying to use the same m3u8 stream on another computer, I could download the stream without any issues.

  


  I know that someone from Youtubedl CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED suggested fixing "your system's CA certificate list". What is the process of doing this?

  


  I tried upgrading/reinstalling python and reinstalling the latest Windows update

  


  I also want to mention that there hasn't been any issue with downloading for the past year but recently stumbled upon this when switching proxy providers. But because the same setup works on another PC without any issue it's probably not the reason.

  


  The system the program is running on is Windows

  


  Edit: Another note is that downloading other public m3u8 streams works perfectly fine, so the problem is probably with the system CA SSL.

  


• Forward youtube-dl output to ffmpeg with hardware-accelerated encoding [closed]

  16 March 2021, by Yehor

  I'm trying to download some videos from youtube and simultaneously forward those to ffmpeg for hardware decoding to h265 (just for purpose of seeing how it works).

  


  My command, that works, but uses (as I understand) software encoding:

  


  youtube-dl -o "./%(playlist)s/%(title)s.%(ext)s" --merge-output-format mkv --postprocessor-args "-c:v libx265 -c:a opus -strict experimental" "target_url"


  


  When I specify the hardware acceleration, I receive the error "Invalid argument". The command is:

  


  youtube-dl -o "./%(playlist)s/%(title)s.%(ext)s" --merge-output-format mkv --postprocessor-args "-hwaccel cuda -c:v hevc_nvenc -c:a opus -strict experimental" "target_url"


  


  What I've done wrong?

  


  System info:

  


  

  • OS: Windows 10 x64

  


  • GPU: Nvidia GeForce 960M (installed the latest driver and CUDA) and should be supported by CUDA

  


  • latest youtube-dl and ffmpeg build

  


  


  The ffmpeg -encoders output contains 265 codecs, so they also should be supported:

  


  V..... libx265              libx265 H.265 / HEVC (codec hevc)
V..... nvenc_hevc           NVIDIA NVENC hevc encoder (codec hevc)
V..... hevc_amf             AMD AMF HEVC encoder (codec hevc)
V..... hevc_nvenc           NVIDIA NVENC hevc encoder (codec hevc)
V..... hevc_qsv             HEVC (Intel Quick Sync Video acceleration) (codec hevc)
