RealPlayer has stopped downloading videos from YouTube.
I can't download any YouTube videos anymore. I could only yesterday, but today, I can't. Every time I try, this error message comes up: "Real Player cannot download videos on this page." Thing is, it can't download videos on any YouTube page!

YouTube made some changes (yet again yesterday) on their end, which caused issues with downloading videos through RealPlayer. The good news is that we’ve re-engineered RealPlayer to work with these changes — and it’s now fixed for RealPlayer version 24.
To get things working again, please “over-install” RealPlayer by going to www.real.com. Just download the installer and run it — when it says RealPlayer is already installed, go ahead and continue the installation. No need to uninstall first.
If you're using RealPlayer version 22, we're still working on a fix and hope to have that available soon.
Appreciate your patience!

I can see the videos on YouTube, so that's not a problem in my case. But being able to download them to my hard drive is.

Just happened in the last 24 hours. My guess is Youtube put a restriction on downloads

Does tech support even know about this latest problem? It's been going on for a while now, the least they should do is acknowledge that it exists!!

Seems we are all out in the cold, heck I don't even have any download button up on the top of the screen anymore or the energy and hours to find out how.
Looks like a perfect time to downgrade plan.

I can not record YouTube videos since 3/23/2025. What is the problem.. I uninstalled and re-installed on 2 computers. I changed Hard Drive in one computer and still can't record.

Same problem. I was able to download a past live stream yesterday, and I'm able to download the videos from yt1z dot net, but not using the app. It began preventing me from downloading any video with an "Age Restricted Content" flag about 2 months ago, and has been doing this sporadically. It seems to work differently as well depending on which server my VPN app has connected to, so maybe the RP app isn't passing the right security to youtube via the API to show it isn't a spam bot?

RealPlayer has issued an update on this issue, I'm pleased to say! =)
Due to recent technical adjustments on YouTube, downloading YouTube videos in RealPlayer is temporarily unavailable. Downloads from other sites remain unaffected. We’ve consistently re-engineered our product quickly when platforms evolve, and our team is on it. Expect restored YouTube downloads soon—we’ll update this page with the necessary update instructions once the issue is resolved.

Real Player is shutout from downloading on ALL websites. Don't know why-but i have spent the day working thru this and THAT is my results. They just won't admit it. Glad i only used the free version and didn't lose money--so sad.

I followed update instructions and it did not fix the download issue. I agree with Mr. MCFARLAND this does affect download abilities across the board.
Guess I’ll be happy with videos in my library and downgrade plan to free version.0 -
Some Videos DO record but most DO NOT - ONGOING PROBLEM something MUST be done to resolve this.

I did the the update downloader, and it worked for 24 hours. I can't record any videos since yesterday 3/29.

Mine came back on this afternoon. Did the update earlier. Guess the downloader has been coming on in different regions, let’s hope it lasts. Good luck everyone. Thanks ReaPlayer for listening.
