I’ve been using yt-dlp for downloading Instagram videos for some time now, with good results (most of the time). All I needed to do was type
‘yt-dlp
into the terminal window, and press Enter.But, this past week, something changed and now I can’t download anything at all from Instagram. The error messages tell me that the program can’t “extract the uploader id”, and can’t “extract video url”.
The program’s output tells me to report this at http://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp. It also tells me to make sure I’m using the latest version of yt-dlp.
The current version of yt-dlp at Github is v. “yt-dlp (2022.07.18-1)”.
The version available via the antix repo is “yt-dlp 2021.12.27-1~mx19+1”.
——————–Using the stock 2021.12.27-1~mx19+1 file, the output was as follows:

Enabling the Debian sid repo, I found “yt-dlp 2022.05.18-1”.
I also downloaded all the Recommends files for that file, but it failed to work.The output from v. 2022.05.18-1 was:

————————
Note, that after it didn’t work, I disabled the Debian SID repos again.
Also note that the version from Debian SID is not up to date, being 2 months older than the version from Github.
————————I should also mention, that the inability to download happened yesterday on my other laptop running antiX-21 also. So, the problem isn’t limited to antiX-19.4.
I’ve hit a wall, in my attempts to fix this problem with yt-dlp – which is why I’m posting this here.

Github requires that I run an up to date copy of yt-dlp as prerequisite to filing an error report. Obviously, I can’t do that… What can be done to overcome this proble?

Hey everyone!
I am really grateful for all the help you have given me in the past. I have a major problem. I came home one day to a blank screen. When I restarted the computer, it seemed to boot normally (splash screen, etc) until the login where it stopped. It normally automatically logs me in.
When I entered my login name and password, I got a message telling me the last time a logged in and the strange message “you have no mail” followed by my $ prompt.
I have partitioned antix with a root, a swap, and a home directory. Luckily, none of my personal files have been corrupted.
I lam currently running antix 21 on my 32 bit system off of a flash drive with persistence. I have tried boot repair, with no effect.
Can you help me to: (1) Repair my existing Antix 19 installation so that it boots all the way OR (2) tell me how to install antix 21 on my existing partition so that I DON’T lose my existing home partition and personal data/files? I have started the installation process, but have exited out, unsure whether to check “home directory” in the custom install option.
Thank you so much!
Hern

Topic: Help to buy RAM memory
Can you help me to buy RAM memory for my DELL Latitude E6430?
It has 4Gb of RAM (on 2 cards of 2Gb) I would like to put 8Gb but I’m not sure if it’s compatible with my laptop, I’m pretty clumsy for these things.Is this one ok?
I want the upgrade mainly for Photography, if I use ART+GIMP 4Gb is not enough.
Thank you.
