The error is:

Missing Key-Pair-Id query parameter or cookie value

Try loading a cookies.txt and see if it helps

[yxd0018]

I use the cookies.txt extension of chrome to export the cookies, but the error is exactly the same.
Q1 are you able to download the video with cookie? Q2 do you debug to see the key-pair error msg?

if you need the video, it is available on youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3_ccsuPoD8

Try this patch and report back, if it fixed your issue: https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/commit/a1c88c4819233cf5f3734bcd6cf251d4339196ce

I applied the diff in the installed package file and get the same error. Even changing the "videof" in the changelist to "videoh" in my video doesn't help. I ran the local copy code which is on win10 via "python -m youtube_dl --cookies ....". Should I ask in the youtube-dl repo? Glad it came back 5 days ago.

SOLVED !! > youtube-dlc --referer https://www.infoq.com/ https://www.infoq.com/presentations/stpa/

youtube-dlc --referer https://www.infoq.com/ https://www.infoq.com/presentations/stpa/

This works

With https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/commit/a1c88c4819233cf5f3734bcd6cf251d4339196ce applied, youtube-dlc https://www.infoq.com/presentations/stpa/ also works.

Providing the direct URL doesnot work in either case
