Answer 1

The xpath you provided to find an element doesn't seem to work ""//[#id="videoURL"]"" I also opened up a YouTube video to see what you were looking for but I couldn't find videoURL if you are trying to get the URL I recommend you have selenium click on the share button and grab the link from there.

Answer 2

import time
from selenium import webdriver
import pyautogui as auto
url = 'https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=closer+8d'
web = webdriver.Chrome('./chromedriver')
web.get(url)
time.sleep(3)
link = web.find_element_by_id('video-title')
link = link.get_attribute('href')
web.execute_script("window.open('https://www.youtubemp3.pro/en2', 'new_window')")
web.switch_to_window(web.window_handles[-1])
ylink = web.find_element_by_id("videoURL")
ylink.click()
ylink.send_keys(link)
submit = web.find_element_by_name("submitForm")
submit.click()
you do not have to use pyautogui it will work better if you use seleniu

Answer 3

try to find the element with it's ID.
import time
from selenium import webdriver
url = 'https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=closer+8d'
web = webdriver.Chrome('../assets/chromedriver')
web.get(url)
time.sleep(3)
link = web.find_element_by_id('video-title')
link = link.get_attribute('href')
web.get('https://www.youtubemp3.pro/en2/')
time.sleep(3)
search_bar = web.find_element_by_id('txt-url')
search_bar.click()
search_bar.send_keys(link)
