Youtube video download URL

Question

Hi
I wrote a program that gets youtube video URL and downloads it
Up today I did this:
1. get video "token" from "/get_video_info?video_id=ID" like:

http://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?video_id=jN0nWjvzeNc  

2. Download Video by requesting it from "/get_video?video_id=ID&t=TOKEN&fmt=FORMAT_ID" like:

http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=jN0nWjvzeNc&t=vjVQa1PpcFMgAK0HB1VRbinpVOwm29eGugPh3fBi6Dg%3D&fmt=18  

But this doesn't work anymore!
What is the new download URL?

Thanks

Answer 1

Following this:

Should solve your problem. Getting the url the way you describe does not work anymore.

Answer 2

I'm running into the same problem. Has anyone found a solution for this yet? There has to be one out there, because some programs that rely on it are starting to release updates that supposedly work http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/news/?p=356

Answer 3

Add &asv=2 to the end of the URL.
