[Reddit] Video download 403 #8657
Description
Images download normally, but when downloading videos, I get a 403 error. However, the video plays in the browser. I tried adding cookies, but to no avail. Downloading via VPN also does not help.
Updating yt-dlp does not help. Using this command does not help either: "pip install -U gallery-dl yt-dlp[default]".
