Before creating an issue

Please confirm that you are on the latest version of pytube by installing from the source. You can do this by running python -m pip install git+https://github.com/pytube/pytube. Sometimes, the pypi library repository is not up to date, and your issue may have been fixed already!

Describe the bug I have been running PyTube at different points today with success and fast downloads, but as of about 30 minutes ago I started to get this when I would run it:

'NoneType' object has no attribute 'span'

To Reproduce I have tried on these two links, both of which were working earlier today: -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twtGL8WbllM&ab_channel=HarritonRams -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mA_3LkF_Cdo&ab_channel=IndianaSRN

Here is the code sample where it is being used:

def download_youtube_video(row, game_id): filename = game_id + ".mp4" try: YouTube(row[0]).streams.filter(progressive=True, file_extension='mp4').order_by('resolution').desc().first().download(filename=filename) upload_successful = True except Exception as e: print(e) print("HEY, LOOK HERE") print("I'VE GOT SOME BAD NEWS, SADLY") print("YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DOWNLOAD AND UPLOAD THIS ONE MANUALLY") print(row[0]) print(game_id) print("I TRIED TWO DIFFERENT YOUTUBE DOWNLOADER PACKAGES, BLAME THOSE F**** OVER AT GOOGLE FOR THIS")

Expected behavior I expected the video to be downloaded in the same directory as my python script as it was earlier today.

Output Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 3, in <module> YouTube("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mA_3LkF_Cdo&ab_channel=IndianaSRN").streams.filter(progressive=True, file_extension='mp4').order_by('resolution').desc().first().download(filename="hello.mp4") File "/Users/hunterhawley/Library/Python/3.7/lib/python/site-packages/pytube/__main__.py", line 292, in streams return StreamQuery(self.fmt_streams) File "/Users/hunterhawley/Library/Python/3.7/lib/python/site-packages/pytube/__main__.py", line 177, in fmt_streams extract.apply_signature(stream_manifest, self.vid_info, self.js) File "/Users/hunterhawley/Library/Python/3.7/lib/python/site-packages/pytube/extract.py", line 409, in apply_signature cipher = Cipher(js=js) File "/Users/hunterhawley/Library/Python/3.7/lib/python/site-packages/pytube/cipher.py", line 43, in __init__ self.throttling_plan = get_throttling_plan(js) File "/Users/hunterhawley/Library/Python/3.7/lib/python/site-packages/pytube/cipher.py", line 387, in get_throttling_plan raw_code = get_throttling_function_code(js) File "/Users/hunterhawley/Library/Python/3.7/lib/python/site-packages/pytube/cipher.py", line 301, in get_throttling_function_code code_lines_list = find_object_from_startpoint(js, match.span()[1]).split('\n') AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'span'

System information Please provide the following information:

• Python version: Python 3.7.1rc1
• Pytube version: Unsure as the provided way to find this didn't work
• Command used to install pytube: First was python -m pip install pytube but before posting it was python -m pip install git+https://github.com/pytube/pytube

Describe the bug I need to get URL to upload the video on AWS. The code is simplest as possible

yt = YouTube(video_url)
streams = yt.streams

The video that I want to download: http://youtube.com/watch?v=2lAe1cqCOXo On the line where we get streams, it returns the error urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found It's happening not always around once at 2-3 requests.

Hi all,

I'm aware that there are some older issues with the same error, howevery I thought I would just give it a try. For some videos (like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=393C3pr2ioY ) I get a 403 error...others work fine though. Do you know of any workaround for that? I saw this thread in the older issue https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16627227/http-error-403-in-python-3-web-scraping but I'm not good enough in Python to find the right spot to implement it. Any help would be appreciated.

PS: I already updated to the most current version (9.5.0).

Seems like starting from today every video will cause this error when initialize a YouTube instance. Is there a quick way to fix this? I was using the same code yesterday and everything works fine.

python version 3.6 I've tried various pytube version such as 8.0.0, 9.5.0 and 9.5.2. None of them works and all lead to this error.

Pytube version: 11.0.1 Python 3.9.7

I've been getting this error ever since I downloaded pytube, which was only two weeks ago, but it keeps getting worse. At least 1 in 30 downloads will give me the error "urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found"

When I run the loop using the same YouTube link and Download location:

import pytube

for i in range(50):
    out_file = pytube.YouTube("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHwGIA4VeOc").streams.first().download("D:\Music")
    print("Done")

I get the error "urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found" at least once during the loop. Sometimes it will give the error on the 5th download, sometimes on the 43rd. It is random. If I'm lucky it will download them all successfully, but that almost never happens.

I've tried putting a delay between downloads and looping through a list of links instead of using the same link for each download, but neither worked.

There is an old issue from 2019, where people have left comments having the same issue within the last two weeks, so I'm not the only one.

Information:

• Python 3.9.5
• Pytube 10.8.1
• I used "python -m pip install git+https://github.com/pytube/pytube" to download pytube

Tried adding the pattern into cipher.py to no effect... help please?

Ran into this error in my main file i was using.

So i made the most basic version i could and still got that error. Running in python 3.8 64 bit

from pytube import YouTube yt = YouTube('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw')

Error thrown: Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\Users\user\Documents\My scripting projects\yt download testr\test.py", line 4, in <module> yt = YouTube('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw') File "C:\Python38\lib\site-packages\pytube\__main__.py", line 92, in __init__ self.descramble() File "C:\Python38\lib\site-packages\pytube\__main__.py", line 140, in descramble apply_signature(self.player_config_args, fmt, self.js) File "C:\Python38\lib\site-packages\pytube\extract.py", line 225, in apply_signature cipher = Cipher(js=js) File "C:\Python38\lib\site-packages\pytube\cipher.py", line 31, in __init__ var, _ = self.transform_plan[0].split(".")

Is it just me or are you guys getting this error also?

Hello and thanks for your help.

Everything is up to date.

I'm on mac, I created a script in PyCharm that checks the youtube urls in an Excel doc and returns the video titles in a column. It works great on my computer BUT, when I create an app and an executable script file with PyInstaller, it's not returning any titles anymore and I don't get any errors when I run them with the terminal...

I did a test where I removed the pytube module and just printed "test" in the cells and it worked, so the issue is with the pytube module...I did another test where instead of returning the titles in my Excel doc, it would print the titles in the terminal, and it's printing blank...

Before creating an issue

Use the Channel() function with the URL set to the new channel ID urls "http://youtube.com/@username"

Describe the bug the code will not work as expected with this type of URL and returns the following error

You see my full code here: https://github.com/flyinggoatman/YouTube-Link-Extractor/blob/master/QualityYouTube.py

The part of the code that is throwing errors is:

` if re.search ("/channel/", channelURL) or re.search ("@", channelURL) or re.search ("/user/", channelURL) or re.search ("/c/", channelURL):

                # This code detects if the given URL is a channel. If the check comes back as True then it grabs the data using pytube.
            
                    
                c = Channel(channelURL)
                channel_name = c.channel_name
                
                channel_id =  c.channel_id
                channel_id_link = "http://youtube.com/channel/"+channel_id
                
                print("Channel Name: "+channel_name)
                print("Channel ID: "+channel_id) 
                print("Channel Link: "+channel_id_link)`

To Reproduce Please provide the following information:

• Install Python3
• Install Pytube
• Get a channel URL that contains a "@" symbol
• put that URL into code.

Expected behavior Expected the pytube library to parse the link like it does with /user/, /channel/ and /c/ links.

I've searched RegexMatchError on the web and it appears it had been fixed, but apparently it repeats itself.

This is the code it's just a test: class MainPage(App): def build(self): c = Channel('https://www.youtube.com/@PyMike/videos') for url in c.video_urls[:3]: print(url) MainPage().run()

With this channel "https://www.youtube.com/@PyMike/videos" I keep getting this error:

Can you help me? I just started learning python.
