Error 403 during mid download

Open snipergod87 opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

22 minutes into downloading a public livestream I got the following. Downloading segment 1379...2021-10-12 11:02:36,624 - CRITICAL - download.LJ3EFe_hyoc - <class 'urllib.error.HTTPError'>: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden 2021-10-12 11:02:36,625 - INFO - download.LJ3EFe_hyoc - Forbidden 2021-10-12 11:02:37,236 - WARNING - download.LJ3EFe_hyoc - The stream is not live anymore. Done. 2021-10-12 11:02:37,237 - INFO - download.LJ3EFe_hyoc - Finished downloading LJ3EFe_hyoc.

I did check the stream did not go offline.

That is strange. If the stream was still going, then it is definitely a bug.

Otherwise I would say it is most likely related to the random throttling issue (#11). The download is so slow, by the time the stream has been removed by the author, Youtube's CDN servers will throw a 403 error. I am currently rewriting part of the program to circumvent the issue.
