Description

I will preface this by saying I have basically no programming or coding knowledge or experience, and am learning from an experienced family member. However, I have been able to download videos from youtube and tumblr for the past several weeks using youtube-dl. Beginning last night, I lost the ability to download from tumblr, with a 403 error. It was working until last night, and I can still download from youtube. I have since updated youtube-dl, and the problem remains. I have tried multiple tumblr videos from multiple blogs, and the problem remains.

Here are the URLs of the videos I have tried to download:

https://vmae.tumblr.com/post/179425740035/the-best-scene-in-nosferatu-1922-sound-remastered

Here is one video that I have downloaded before, with no issue, but now cannot download:

@Khia9 interesting #13829 (comment) has related information. May be tumblr links are now moved to safe-mode and behind authentication and you may need to pass the credentials to get it working again
Eg. youtube-dl -u "${TUMBLR_USERNAME}" -p "${TUMBLR_PASSWORD}" {YOUR_VIDEO_LINK}

@p00j4 thanks for your reply. I tried your proposed solution, and it got me further than before (no 403 Error), but instead it said that my login credentials were insufficient. The line reads:

ERROR: Unable to login: You forgot to enter your email!

I notice that before entering the tumblr username, you suggesting using -u, and for password you suggested -p. Is there a similar prefix for an email address? And if so, where should I place the email info within the line of code?

I also tried using my email address as the username, but that threw up an error as the password and username didn't match. Thank you for your help.

@p00j4 actually you will still get 403 forbidden response even when you're logged
