Scraping not working

Hi, I tried to use the scraper, just putting in a random YT URL. However, I'm always getting "data: null" as an output, and the log shows an "Unexpected token / not valid JSON" error (again, this is directly from the Apify console, not through a third party tool, so this is a bit weird).

Any ideas?

run and log attached

Thanks
