I've always used Video DownloadHelper to save youtube videos. A lot of times when I want to save a video, I'll see some "ADP" choices, and when I try to save that, a popup appears saying I need to install some sort of converter to save that. There's always been some non-ADP choices though, so I never had to install the converter.
Now I guess youtube changed something, because I only see ADP options. For example, see
this video. So when I tried to save the ADP video, VDH told me to install a converter, so I downloaded the one from their web site and installed it.
After installing the converter and trying to save the ADP video, VDH says "Failed aggregating Villanova vs. North Carolina: Game highlights - YouTube". When I click on Details, it says:
