downlaod button not working about youtube-dl-gui HOT 8 CLOSED

Hi thaynos,

That should not be happening. Does it work if you try it again or is it a consistent problem? When I try downloading my own watch later playlist it works fine. Do you receive any errors while downloading the metadata? If not, try pressing CTRL+SHIFT+I and upload a screenshot of the window that pops up, this allows me to see what may have happened. Additionally, have you changed any settings to a non-default value?

If you have any further questions please let me know.

as you can see the download button is greyed out
but when i cleared the queue and restarted the downloading again it works

So from this example I can conclude that it only happens every so often?
I haven't been able to find a possible cause yet.

If you could answer the question above, it would allow me to investigate further.

I think I have identified the culprit and have applied a fix. The fix will ship in version 2.1.0.

Closing the issue for now.

i found that changing from click to calculate to automatically calculate fixes the issue for when it permanently stops working.
