yt-dlp can retrieve YouTube cookies from most browsers, which is far more convenient than manually extracting them.

This option has to be parsed in gytmdl unfortunately, the yt-dlp Python API expects a tuple. The code that parses it is here: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/blob/86a972033e05fea80e5fe7f2aff6723dbe2f3952/yt_dlp/__init__.py#L370

Not even a token message? If I've done something wrong it would be nice to know at least.
