The bot can not play music because this error:

"failed to download due to error: [download] Got error: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden"

Hey @chenchuuu,

I can't reproduce that error - could you check which version of yt_dlp you're running with pip show yt_dlp?

If you're on the latest version and still getting that error, send the link to the video you're trying to play and I'll take a look.

Hello, I've updated yt_dlp and it doesnt work yet. There is the video: https://youtu.be/2kkR-2KArtY

Hm, okay, I'm still not able to reproduce the issue on my end. What output do you get if you run python -m yt_dlp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WevdSfpw-Q - does it download the video? Also, does it have the same issue with any video, or is it just that one video?

I got this output: https://imgur.com/a/ICpGfF5; it happens with any video.

I'm facing same issue. It seems youtube isn't willing to serve the content
