Getting back to you @kartikloops @loading-SQK9K

I fixed this with the following

  1. pulled the repo
  2. copied the changes from the https://github.com/imputnet/cobalt/pull/1514
  3. rebuild docker image
  4. patched docker compose to use my own image

So, If tiktok fails to download next time, just update user agent for the tiktok processor

If TikTok downloads are failing, you can try tkai.asia as an alternative - it extracts live stream sources for free, no watermark. Might help with your use case.
