This same technique is also meant for other sites with login requirements, but I have not used it for anything except YouTube. Yet I easily forget how and have to refer again to the Help page. I don't download age-restricted videos very often. Eventually after some period of time (hours? days? weeks? months? every jdownloader session?) the cookies will expire and it will have to be done again. I used a dummy gmail email youtube account anyway, just for extra security. It will NOT ask for your password, just your YouTube account username, and the cookies you generated. It is a workable secondary option for when you need it. EDIT: You still have to Login to YouTube, so this is not as good an option as 9xbuddy or. You can then download age-restricted videos and the subtitles. I just do not know!ģ) Import your cookies into Jdownloader2 / Settings /AccountManager / Add account / Youtube. Maybe it just did not like the IP address I was coming in from before. and I can still see the Help page, WITHOUT logging in! I am completely bewildered. Now I have logged out, cleared my browser history, exited my browser, changed my VPN server, gone back to my browser. So I registered here:Īnd some hours later the Moderators approved my registration and I could see the Help page after logging in. I had bookmarked that page long ago, but for some reason this time it was only available to me with a jdownloader site login. The how-to instructions to do this are here: I knew that JDownloader2 should work if I set it up with YouTube cookies. (EDIT: Anyone, is there a way to use yt-dlp to access restricted content? If so, please post.) There may be a way around that, but I have not figured that out for those yet. youtube-dl and I think also yt-dlp are restricted from downloading Age-restricted videos. I don't know why it did not work, but I had to use something else. Recently when I tried to use it to download Automated Subtitles on an Age-Restricted video, it did not work for me. There are sites that let you download age-restricted YouTube (and other sites) videos without logging in to anything:ĩxbuddy also downloads subtitles.
