Do you have a video that gives this error? Does it only happen after a while because it looks like one of those messages you get for NSFW videos.
Here's an example of a video with the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otfd2UTrP_Q
Can't find a way to scrape the video info
tried these pages https://www.youtube.com/embed/otfd2UTrP_Q http://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?hl=en_US&el=detailpage&video_id=otfd2UTrP_Q
The other option can be having the user login, by either giving some sort of credentials, or a cookie.
It looks like https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl has a workaround for the age gating that doesn't involve logging in: https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/blob/98998cded6e179b35055177f75fc921d99ee5938/youtube_dl/extractor/youtube.py#L828-L845
