Strange thing is this is the response from a remote server. Locally it works fine. Both are running the same version of youtube-dl.

Remote server? Like running from a VPS from a big provider or something?
They tend to be blocked based on IP address ranges, occasionally.

The error is self-explanatory.
Can you watch it in browser from the same machine and IP?

Didn't try that. Would having a proxy help in these cases?
