Can't download YouTube video

[theophasbie]

Hi, I need help to fix this issue

public function download() {

    $yt = new YoutubeDl();
    $yt->setBinPath(ENV('YOUTUBE_DL'));

    $collection = $yt->download(
        Options::create()
            ->downloadPath('C:\Users\theop\Downloads')
            ->url('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cag-pf1Iemw')
    );

    dd($collection);

    foreach ($collection->getVideos() as $video) {

        if ($video->getError() !== null) {
            echo "Error downloading video: {$video->getError()}.";
        } else {
            echo $video->getTitle(); // Will return Phonebloks

        }
    }
}

I get a blank page without any error

This is my ENV variable YOUTUBE_DL=C:\youtube-dl\youtube-dl.exe

P.S : I'm able to download YouTube video using my terminal means youtube-dl work

Hi, then check php logs what they say :) or enable some error handler to get some errors :)

Hi. Thanks for your reply. Yes I have deleted the content of php_errors.log, laravel.log and then rexecute the script. Nothing to report in both files.

I have also put APP_DEBUG to true in my env
