Cannot get manifest due to `System.FormatException: 'The format of value '' is invalid.'`
See original GitHub issueVersion
ver 6.3.0
Details
I am simply trying to follow the Readme.md file but I repeatedly get:
System.FormatException: 'The format of value '' is invalid.'
as soon as I await youtube.Videos.Streams.GetManifestAsync(videoUrl).
What am I missing?
Steps to reproduce
Simply run the GetManifestAsync method and you will get the FormatException:
var youtube = new YoutubeClient();
// Get stream manifest
var videoUrl = "https://youtube.com/watch?v=u_yIGGhubZs";
var streamManifest = await youtube.Videos.Streams.GetManifestAsync(videoUrl);
