However, on the official website https://cobalt.tools/, downloading YouTube videos works fine. But on my self-hosted setup, it doesn't work. I followed the instructions in configure-for-youtube.md and tried several times, but it still doesn't work.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me check the issue,thank you.
