22 Well, no idea :-P All I can say is that I have these:
23
24 media-video/mpv-0.14.0-r1
25 lua and luajit USE flags are needed.
26
27 media-video/ffmpeg-2.8.4
28 librtmp network openssl opus vorbis are needed
29
30 net-misc/youtube-dl-2016.01.09
31
32 I would assume that if you're not on ~arch, you have too old versions.
33 Newer versions are very important because YouTube changes their APIs and
34 streaming formats quite often and thus stuff gets outdated quick.
