I have been unable to use youtube-dl for (I believe) over a year, now, 
due, I believe, to changes made by youtube, and, had been unable to use 
yt-dlp .

Then, after reading the above post by David Wright, I updated my 
installed version of yt-dlp to the backports version 
2024.04.09-1~bpo12+1, and, yt-dlp is merrily working.

The latest version of youtube-dl , makes it too old to try to use now; 
if you can get it working with youtube, good luck to you.

An unmaintained package, that is three years since last updated, for 
accessing web sites on the World Wide Web?

Hmmmm.....
