getVideo() giving "***Video not available in your country***" despite IP not being in a restricted region

[AcGW-RErCotWd]

Seems like there is an error on line 172 of videos.py:
script_data = self._scrapScriptInfo(soup_data.find("script", type="application/ld+json").text)

the return of soup_data.find("script", type="application/ld+json").text is an empty string

Furthermore, this error seems to happen inside the _scrapScriptInfo() method on line 135, where json.loads() method raise the following:
Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

In my case, when the page did not load, it was due to the fact that the author of the video blocked access to it for my country. In general, the site works in my country.
In the new pull request I slightly updated the blocking moment, maybe its fixed. Or maybe it will become clearer what's going on.

It seems like the error could be break down into 2 parts:
1, (line 172) soup_data.find("script", type="application/ld+json").text returns an empty string
2. (line 135) json.loads(soup_data.replace("'",'"')) takes in an empty string and raises a json.decoder.JSONDecodeError

This issue could be solved by replacing the code on line 172 soup_data.find("script", type="application/ld+json").text with the following: re.findall('<script type="application/ld\+json">([\s\S]+?)</script>', str(soup_data))[0]

I am not sure why the original bs4 find statement does not work for me, but the new search code implemented via regex works

Great, then I'll replace it with the following code. It looks like the code is still working for me, so I added it to the pull request.
And it would be better if you didn't close the issue about pip. If it existed, mb pip would be updated :D

Received, I reopened the issue until it resolve.

@sskender the problem is with the lines 137 and 140 of the videos.py file.

After commenting out these lines I got the vídeo right, it happens because the script_dict on line 135 doesn't have either attributes.

I can only confirm this happening when getting a single specific vídeo through url, it's better to test with multiple videos as well.

@mateuslacorte can you create a PR that fixes it? Did you maybe test PR #21 ? Does it fix this behaviour?

[mateuslacorte]

Didn't test yet, I will test it and let you know.
