I still get
HTTPError 429: Too Many Requests!
although I use--sleep-interval 5
as shown below: How can I bypass this issue?
Send less requests, obviously 😆
Jokes aside. --sleep-interval
is only dealing with audio/video downloads. If you download lots of subtitles you could use --sleep-subtitles
as well - it should take some number as input.
What I have been experimenting with is actually to throttle the actual api requests that usually helps. But there is no parameter for that as of now and I am unsure whether this can be implemented globally or for youtube only (will need quite some work either way).
When I was fixing the history feed I noticed that when I reach 50-60 of 100+ pages it will return me some 429s. However when I put a 1-2s timeout in between each request I did not get any 429s.
For cookies you can use this https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/editthiscookie/fngmhnnpilhplaeedifhccceomclgfbg export as netscape
im getting same error (too many requests)
by running this
youtube-dlc -f 140 --embed-thumbnail 'https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=RDCLAK5uy_kLWIr9gv1XLlPbaDS965-Db4TrBoUTxQ8'
running version 2020.11.11-3
edit: cookies is the solution
Why do you get that error?
idk but maybe bcz of my vpn(before that yt showed me that capcha thing).
I found why, is is because you have downloaded for extensive amount of times, so you are getting a warning (too many requests) It just happened with me right no, so slow down the download or change the ip address using a vpn, that way you have to do a good amount of download before you get another warning for that up address and so on
you dont have to download a lot for this to happend. its VPN. many users may get same ip. maybe they are doing a lot of downloads and this will happend to everyone who is connected to same vpn server and using google services. anyway i have to use vpn to access yt since its censored/sanctioned here. i have to reconnect another server when this happens
