This should be reported to the upstream project as we don't maintain the program itself.

The latest youtube-dl stable release is on trisquel repositories, so it might be an issue of changes on the internal YouTube engine that need to be addressed by youtube-dl.

The problem persists even after installing the latest version of mpv (0.33.1)

mpv only display what youtube-dl send to it.

youtube-dl is a very active project as YouTube changes the mechanics on how things work internally to reduce users not using the content on their terms, so bugs are kind of expected the more time passes from the last release, fixed again on a newer release, starting the cycle on YouTube changing things again.

So it's very likely this will be fixed on the next youtube-dl release, not mpv.

Hopefully once a new version is released, it won't pass to much time 'til we get the update in our repositories.

Cheers!
