I'm passing cookies into program (no confirmation or error message though) and after trying to download file it still says that file is private (and it shouldn't be private if cookies were properly loaded).

It might be issue with cookies.txt because it says that there are no cookies on website, but when i click download all cookies it downloads file without extension, and it contains something when changed to .txt.

EditThisCookie detects cookies and lets me download them, but now youtube-dl shows errors. It might be issue with format, but none of these software is kind enough to let me choose it. Is there any converter out there?

Used converter and now it say it is netscape format but invalid one.
(to creator of this - you really could make some UI for this in the future).
