oAuth2 Support #212

Closed ccccmark closed 2 months ago

ccccmark commented 3 months ago

Is there any way to support oAuth2 without relying on cookies file? ytarchive stopped working after several attempts of downloading, tried yt-dlp and detected the "Sign in if you are not a bot" error which involves ytarchive failing.

yta doesn't actually use proper API calls, so no. This is not the kind of program that would be able to use oAuth, as it's likely a breach of ToS (you are not meant to be able to download youtube videos).
