could not find match for config_patterns, setconfig_patterns

Here is my code :

from pytube import YouTube
l = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixZDTiXiHsc"
yt = YouTube(l)

I get this error, I tried other videos, some works, but some doesn’t and have the same error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 32, in <module>
    yt = YouTube(link)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pytube/__main__.py", line 102, in __init__
    self.prefetch()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pytube/__main__.py", line 194, in prefetch
    self.js_url = extract.js_url(self.watch_html)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pytube/extract.py", line 180, in js_url
    base_js = get_ytplayer_config(html)['assets']['js']
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pytube/extract.py", line 279, in get_ytplayer_config
    raise RegexMatchError(
pytube.exceptions.RegexMatchError: get_ytplayer_config: could not find match for config_patterns, setconfig_patterns

I tried with pytube, pytube3, pytube4 and pytubeX

@AndrewMcKinney you’re likely running an old version of pytube. If you run print(pytube.__version__) and it does not display 10.1.0, you are running an outdate version. Version 10.1.0 has not yet been published on pypi, and needs to be installed from source with the command python -m pip install git+https://github.com/nficano/pytube

I see, thank you so much

Just following up on this real quick – this problem should be fixed in the latest version of pytube.
