Downloading videos does not work - : "token" parameter not in video info for unknown reason #83

Description

I am using the virtualenv method. Everything works except when I try to download a video, I see this in the logs.

   ret = yt.download(["https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=" + self.__video.video_id])                                                                                                 [10/45301]
