Not so long ago YT introduced age restrictions and this every now and then prevents me from watching the video through NewPipe. NewPipe can’t play age restricted content.
I have the option to log in to YT and watch the video with ads in the browser, but I would appreciate an alternative. Wondering if you guys have any recommendations. Thanks.
even the userscript i had for this, which used a fallback proxy if needed, hasn’t worked in awhile.
if you don’t mind the login requirement and the target video isn’t drm-‘protected’, you might be able to pass the login credentials or browser cookies–whatever’s needed, to yt-dlp and download the video for later viewing in the media player of your choosing.
