			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello,</p><p>I encountered an issue when trying to play or download a YouTube video using SVP 4’s Tube integration. According to the SVP logs, yt-dlp is initialized correctly and the player connects, but playback ultimately fails because the video data cannot be downloaded.</p><p>Below is an excerpt from the SVP log showing the normal initialization and player connection:<br />Tube: yt_dlp ready<br />Performance: quick estimation = 965 (previous value was 967)<br />Screens: updating information, 2 screen(s) found<br />Screens: screen 1 (Built-in Retina Display) - 3024x1964 @120.000 Hz, x2.0 [255 DPI]<br />Screens: screen 2 (S22E450) - 1920x1080 @60.000 Hz, x1.0 [102 DPI]<br />Screens: primary screen is 1<br />Tube: video format id 247 selected<br />VideoPlayer: mpv [mpv, native] connected, waiting for the video info...</p><br /><p>When executing yt-dlp manually, the download fails with the following message, including a warning about SABR streaming and eventually an HTTP 403 error:</p><p>WARNING: Some web client https formats have been skipped...<br />YouTube is forcing SABR streaming for this client<br />...<br />ERROR: unable to download video data: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden</p><p>However, after updating yt-dlp to the latest version, the same video downloads correctly without any issue. Therefore, the problem appears to be related to the yt-dlp version bundled or used internally by SVP 4, which seems to be outdated and incompatible with recent YouTube streaming changes.</p><p>It would be helpful if SVP could update the bundled yt-dlp version or provide an easier way for users to replace it with a newer version. Please let me know if additional logs or system information are needed.</p><p>Thank you.</p>]]></description>
