After the latest update it says "unable to locate the url" on every link
My SMPlayer version is 19.5.0 (revision 9214) running on Linux
SMtube 19.6.0

It seems the developers of youtube-dl already fixed the problem, so my suggestion for the moment: update youtube-dl and in preferences -> network, select "mpv + youtube-dl".

Can we update youtube-dl from inside SMPlayer?
I had to run the installer again which involved downloading SMPlayer again which i guess i not nessecery so maybe there could just be a button in SMPlayer for it.
Maybe not super important if it almost never nessesary to update it seperately.

It's working now but I guess they'll gradually serve the new format, so it will break again.
Unfortunately I think it will take me a few days to add support for the new format since it requires many changes in the code.
