problem description

When I try to click on the download button, the file downloads with 0 bytes. I don't know what the issue is. I am running Cobalt with Docker, and after the issue in Oauth, I am using a proxy in my Cobalt docker-compose.yml file. My website is based on pythong django I am not using innertube for search the thumbnail details. i am using youtube_search for fetch the youtube data.

Is it necessary use proxies on this code to fetch the data from youtube? can anybody help me??

Here are the code
