ERROR: unable to download video (format may not be available)

I'm using version 2010.12.09-1webupd8lucid from repo.
Has anyone a solution?

Works fine here. Could you try the latest version from the master branch and/or wait a few minutes? It may be an error on their side.

I'm having the problem since yesterday...
What do you mean with version from master branch? i'm quite new with linux/ubuntu

I mean this version. Download it, give it execution permissions and run it, instead of the one you're using now:
