I'm using yt-dlp with this oauth2 plugin on my AWS server. And as we know Youtube recently restricted normall access from AWS and other cloud services.

For me the plugin is working well for regular Youtube videos. But it's failed for live videos when I'm trying to capture it from the start (i.e. using --live-from-start flag).

For an example, with this command (5eFtlG93mHE - can be any live video id):

 # yt-dlp  --username oauth2 --password '' --live-from-start https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eFtlG93mHE

I got such output:

Without "--live-from-start" flag it works good for live videos. Also "--live-from-start" flag works well with already published (not live videos)

Any thoughts?

Seconding this. Very recent issue -- been using --live-from-start with this plugin for months, and as of earlier this week it was working, but now I get the same error 100% of the time.
