problem description
It was stable until today, but now youtube's video link returns 403 when downloading, when not with a cookie it downloads fine, it shouldn't be the ip being banned

your instance configuration

do you know if any specific videos cause this issue? is it just the web client that's affected? (web client is used when you pass cookies)
@coderonex commented on GitHub (Feb 21, 2025):
I've tried downloading several different youtube videos and they all do the same thing, I'm using cookies, it should just be the web client that's affected!
Maybe wait for the youtube.js project to fix this?
@LingeringAsh commented on GitHub (Feb 21, 2025):
Can add a bit of context.
It occurs on every client (Atleast the ones I've tested {WEB,MWEB,TVHTML}) Removing cookies could maybe fix it (Can't test due to local IP being restricted unless logged in). Reverting back to an older player script fixes the problem for now.

Is the known working version for now.

After testing the problem has been fixed, can you update youtubei.js to version 13.1.0 and release a new docker image?
