Mpv not running youtube urls because youtube-dl is out of date
I'm using Linux Mint 21.1 and I recently installed mpv. When I run `mpv` followed by a youtube url I get the following lines:
[ytdl_hook] ERROR: Unable to extract updater id: please report this issue on Make sure you are using the latest version...
[ytdl_hook] youtube-dl failed: unexpected error occurred
[ytdl_hook] It appears that your youtube-dl version is severely out of date
Failed to recognize title format
It seems that the problem is that my youtube-dl is out of date, but when I command `youtube-dl --update` I get that `youtube-dl is up-to-date (2021.12.17)`. What am I failing to see?
This project has not been maintained recently and it's indeed out of date. Please upgrade to/replace it with yt-dlp.
