Copy URL, yt-dlp <dat URL>.
I just hit up that mpv & skip a few steps after installing yt-dlp mpv <dat URL>
I mean that's a way to check for bots
I have been using freetube for a while now which is also facing this issue so it looks like a tug of war between the clients and YouTube which is getting others in the crossfire as well. But for some reason, when I add haruna as external player in freetube and launch a video it always works. Guessing other video players like vlc might also work which you can use with freetube and maybe other privacy focused clients.
I thought about making an *arr application for automating the downloading of your subscribed youtube channels and in quality you want. I want to call it yarrtube. Idk if anyone would be interested or not so only been a pipe dream.
Have had some success just by reloading the page when I get this message
POV 3 years from now: YouTube won’t let me watch a video unless I do a nazi salute
freetube for windows and linux. newpipe for android.
I'm having the same issue on Freetube, it pops up and says it can't play the video because Youtube requires being signed in. Sometimes if I retry a couple of time it'll play, but usually keeps getting the same error. Freetube is great though, maybe they'll come up with a solution soon.

You can use Waydroid
There is Piped, which is a web version of NewPipe

So bots just have to sign in?
If you click Cancel and then simply search for the same video you can watch it without signing in. Total horseshit but still a good ‘fuck you’ move against YouTube.
I'm once again asking you to host Invidious (alternative YouTube frontend) locally on your PC.
The real problem is that it's a pain sometimes and the fact they suggest to restart every hour is even worse. Recently, I had a problem where it started to play some videos and then stopped the playback and from there it went in a reloading loop till you get something like
Refreshing does nothing. Restarting is the same
IDK about invidious, but on Piped I had to add a container that grabs POtokens for the Newpipe API to use to pull videos.
For me, it's running for months and I had to load new image updates sometimes, because YouTube likes to break it, but this was maybe once a month...
Most of the times it works but sometimes it's just a pain to deal with the problem I mentioned. Do you restart it once in a while?
Maybe, once a month when YouTube breaks their site and a video does not load via Invidious, I execute
docker compose pull
docker compose down
docker compose up -d
to load the latest images and usually, it works again.
I have no automated restarts every few hours or days.
I have to see and solve this

I’ve just stopped watching. Plenty of other stuff to do. If they don’t want to show me their ads that’s their problem.
