Solved Music Bot not playing music when using a YT link.

Okay first off I'd like to extend my thanks to anyone willing to read this and help out. So here's my issue: I have installed Sinusbot and youtube DL by using the automated installer script. My music bot used to work fine for a year or so but now has stopped working. What I have tried to solve this issue: restart the VPS and restart sinusbot, update to the newest version. I'm not sure what else I can do to solve the issue.

Now what happens is the following. It says it succesfully downloads the song which is does. But then never proceeds to automatically play it. it simply says: "Done PLAYING" even though nothing was ever played!


I tried to put in a YT song by letting it catch a link using the Youtube downloader script (see image below)
This all seemed to work fine before.

Did many times the cache clearing and restarting. Does not help. Still same issue. Also tried the cli yt-command and it worked ok:
Code:

Did you manage to find a solution or should I just reset my VPS and try everything again?

I figured out that it has to be something with youtube.
First I tried with youtube videos where the lengt is like under 5 seconds. It worked every time.
If I played music from for example a VEVO channel it won't play. If I play the same song but some crappy remix it works.

I think YouTube made some changes to copyright rules and blocked the yt-tool

Looks like other people are having trouble with youtube-dl aswell recently. (https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/24713, https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/24736, https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/23638, ...)

Try removing the signature cache:
Bash: 
su sinusbot
youtube-dl --rm-cache-dir
and then try again.

If that doesn't work: Try manually downloading something from the CLI: youtube-dl -v -i --no-playlist --no-call-home -x https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHI8X4OXluQ

Sorry, I didn't see that post.
I'm guessing that you didn't clear the cache with the correct user? Make sure that you do it as the sinusbot user.
Clearing the cache definitely solved it for me and everyone else with this problem so far.

This a very extreme way to clear the signature cache 😆
The OS doesn't make a difference, Debian 9 is also fine.

Hello!

What I've noticed so far is the following:
youtube-dl works ok if the cache is cleared every hour. I made a automated script to clean it every hour so it will play music.
The youtube-dl works also without clearing the cache, BUT it will not play licensed music for some reason. If you clear the cache then it works for few hours.
If I don't clear the cache let's say for a month, the youtube-dl works well with every video that has not been licensed by YouTube or some record company.
What I mean by licensed videos is music videos for example where in the video description you click "more info" and there is the license from what record company YouTube got the permission for the video.
It's strange how the cache clearing breaks the "copyright protection" for a little time
