Youtube-dl v15.318.0 works - v17.518.2 and v18.425.0 broken on my Kodi 17.6

Hi Ruuk,

Thank you for all your hard work on this wonderful plugin. I have been using for quite some time and love it.

I am currently running LibreElec Kodi 17.6 and have had problems updating youtube-dl to versions newer than 15.318.0 (which still works great).

After updating to either v 17.518.2 and v 18.425.0 the plugin refuses to download anything.

I would really appreciate your advice as to how to fix my Kodi 17.6 so it is compatible with your newer versions. I would really love to run the latest version. Thanks again.

in Gratitude,
A
