I got this too on an account made a week ago, it used to work and then this started happening yesterday. Would love to provide logs but there's nothing in the server's console. Don't know if this is normal, but playing videos through the YouTube site doesn't have this problem on the account- maybe it's just unable to make YouTube TV sessions, or something.

Trying a much older (but still unused, not my main account don't worry!) account, this doesn't happen, so it seems maybe banned accounts get a different error response now?

I have the same error on my new created accounts. basically I have 5 gmail acocunt on 50 youtube channel created on these gmails. from yesterday i am facing this error. even i did not face any error before like this

unexpected status: error (error.api.youtube.api_error)

as far as i can tell, youtube is slowly rolling out a change that breaks oauth2 tokens for clients other than youtube tv (cobalt uses android & ios). not all accounts are affected yet, but an increasingly higher amount of them is. the main cobalt instance is also affected.

we don't know of a proper fix at the moment, but you can follow the same issue in youtube.js' repo: LuanRT/YouTube.js#803 or read the history of the issue in yt-dlp's repo (they ended up removing oauth2 support): yt-dlp/yt-dlp#11462

oauth2 tokens are completely cooked now, the change was fully rolled out. not sure what to do from now on aside from adding support for web cookies, but those are very short lasting :(

YouTube 正在慢慢推出一项破坏 oauth2 令牌的变更

oauth2 令牌现在已经完全成熟，变更已全面推出。除了添加对网络 cookie 的支持外，不确定从现在开始还能做什么，但这些 cookie 的持续时间很短 :(
Hello, do you have a plan to integrate Cobalt project settings with YouTube's Oauth2? The cookies generated by the new Google account are no longer able to access and download YouTube videos
