[Triage] Members only content doesn't get downloaded. I'm a member though (at the right tier).

Open MCLP2005 opened this issue 7 months ago • 2 comments

Describe the bug Member only videos don't get downloaded. I have a subscription to the needed tier; the cookies are imported again after getting a membership. It still does not download.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to youtube and buy a membership
  2. Go to the cookie file and import the cookies again
  3. Restart the pinchflat container
  4. Go to pinchflat source and click on download pending
  5. Get an error, saying a membership is needed

Expected behavior The container should start downloading the content, that's for members only.

I had a similar issue with Age Restricted videos Issue 574. My fix ended up being that I forgot to enable the source using cookies. If you click the source, then "Edit Source" you should be able to select from the dropdown as pictured. Apologies if you have already confirmed this

Yeah. Would be nice if that was the case. I have cookies at "When needed" though. Therefore that should be working. Thanks though. For some people that might be solving issues, but not for me though. I've experimented with this already.
