WRITE DESCRIPTION HERE
I am trying to download a private youtube video by using the --username --password options, but the login process never seems to work. In the verbose logs, you can see I tried it with my username, but I also tried it with my Gmail login (both with and without the @gmail.com part). I also tried all of those combinations with and without the escaping tick marks. I'm not sure what else to try, other than just going the cookie route (I did try that too, but all of the tutorials on it don't seem to be fully up to date regarding google's security).
