my realplayer info:

File version: 2026.8.20.0
Product version: 2026.8.20.0

sample youtube video tried to download:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCwZjkdTDo0&t=19s

Error: Video not available, the video could not be detected, sign in, or click No thanks, maybe later. Clicking No thanks doesn't do anything.

PS, I noticed that the issue stems from youtube, when I tried to view youtube videos that are linked to any other website, such as "https://cdromance.org/turbografx-cd/saber-rider-and-the-star-sheriffs-reconstruction-homebrew-demo-turbografx-cd/", the video would not display and ask me to sign to confirm you're not a bot. Signing in doesn't do anything. Every time I see this error message on any sites, Realplayer won't work, when the youtube videos play correctly, Realplayer works fine.

  We were able to download this video when we signed into YouTube through the Downloader. Not sure how the uploader hosts their videos but signing into YouTube through the Downloader downloads the video.

  Since you say that signing doesn't do anything, can you confirm you are referring to YouTube sign in?
