Every video says

couldn't get this youtube video because it requires an account to view.

this limitation is done by google to seemingly stop scraping, affecting all 3rd party tools and even their own clients.

try again, but if issue persists, check the or .

It's on Hetzner, in case that matters.

So you're self-hosting it? If yes, set up cookies for YouTube. https://github.com/imputnet/cobalt/issues/687#issuecomment-2293405845

~~I tried exactly what it says in the tutorial. I got something like this: "access_token=ya2; refresh_token=1//; scope=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube-paid-content; token_type=Bearer; expiry_date=2024-09-08T22:58:58.080Z" Added that into the cookies.json (which is correctly mounted in the container) and I still get the exact same error.~~

Edit: Turns out I forgot to uncomment the COOKIE_PATH. Thank you very much for this amazing tool!
