As many others have been seeing, Youtube is cracking down on youtube-dl. I was struck with it about a week ago, and now my friends are experiencing it too. The error is:
VideoError: [youtube] 28KRPhVzCus: Sign in to confirm you�re not a bot. Use --cookies-from-browser or --cookies for the authentication. See FAQ · yt-dlp/yt-dlp Wiki · GitHub for how to manually pass cookies. Also see Extractors · yt-dlp/yt-dlp Wiki · GitHub for tips on effectively exporting YouTube cookies
Is there a way to have youtube-dl launch with these options, as that seems straightforward? If not, I know you can have a .bat file run whenever a command window runs, which can hook into these, however it seems like it just makes the window fail to run the subsequent commands. Is there a way to configure something that solves this issue?
