Description

Tried downloading several different videos from this site over the course of the past week. All have resulted in 404, whereas previously, videos have been able to be downloaded from this site without error in the recent past. Confirmed that URLs used are able to be viewed in a web browser without error. Verified youtube-dl version. Updated to 2021.06.06. Tried again with no change in results. Searched github issues for similar posts. Found only one that was locked as off topic. I do not understand the nature of that particular topic being locked, so if I am making a mistake by posting this issue, please forgive me. The site is listed in the sites supported by youtube-dl at https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/blob/master/docs/supportedsites.md

The site no longer understands URLs ending in video{video_id}/. Apparently we just have to add some final component:

[Update] Patch instructions for Unix-like systems not using a single file self-extracting archive (ie ls -l $(which youtube-dl) shows a file <1kB, not >1.5MB):

• find the installation directory where the file YoutubeDL.py is;

• save the patch from this post (from the first --- including the last :), say 30271.patch;

• become admin (eg, sudo -i);

• then:

cat 30271.patch | (cd /path/to/ytdl/installation && patch -p 2)
youtube-dl --version

Very careful patchers whose patch supports these options may like to run the command adding --dry-run --verbose first to verify the patch.

Fix in macOS installed with Homebrew

Edit the file

/usr/local/Cellar/youtube-dl/2021.12.17/libexec/lib/python3.10/site-packages/youtube_dl/extractor

Find the line with the following code:

            'https://www.xvideos.com/video%s/' % video_id, video_id)

Replace it with this

            'https://www.xvideos.com/video%s/0' % video_id, video_id)
