Good to hear. Thanks.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but fmt is a quality setting so this is not really a robust fix.
True, from a quick glance at the code, I think zoutube tries to determine all available formats for a particular video by parsing the actual html page of that video. It seems that youtube changed something, and that list of formats was coming up empty. Format 18 (480x270 ?) was the only one that worked for me at the time.

Here's some format information I found inside the zoutube program.

Code:
        formats = {
            22: "HD Quality",
            35: "High Quality",
            34: "Reasonable Quality",
            18: "Good Quality",
            5: "Bad Quality" }
Code:
        format_priorities = [
                '22/2000000/9/0/115', # 1280x720
                '35/640000/9/0/115',  # 640x360
                '18/512000/9/0/115',  # 480x270
                '34/0/9/0/115',       # 320x180
                '5/0/7/0/0',          # 320x180
        ]
