The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.

[noammaoz]

Hi,

I'm working with the latest version and some of YouTube videos URL throw exception of "The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden."

For example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_2X59Cycrc working fine without any exception
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKbR7u8J5PU throw exception in VideoDownloader.cs

using (WebResponse response = request.GetResponse())

Can you please help with this issue?

Thanks,

Hey there

The issues is related to the way signature decryption is done a solution to the issue have been posted in this issues from a couple of days ago

#129

The work around was posted by @tariqalkhassa

remember to search :)

I've did the above step and it doesn't work. I think too that it has something to do how the signature is put into the dictionary in HttpHelper.ParseQueryString().

From an European IP-Range it doesn't matter but from the US it does somehow.

Should be fixed with #151
