Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Every time the cookie changes, cookie.txt becomes invalid. We have to repeat the export operation from the browser, which happens very frequently.

Describe the solution you'd like Is it possible to read browser cookies directly? Or allow users to add other ytdl command parameters such as "--cookies-from-browser firefox"

That one is already included in my rewrite here (other features are missing though: https://github.com/StefanLobbenmeier/yt-dlp-compose/releases)
