Apparently no one is interested in this issue, commenting or helping or whatever so it may as well be closed. Ultimately I achieved the goal but by other means. |

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 (17G65)
Using iTerm 2 Build 3.3.6, cygwin/ssh to CentOS 7; results consistent across all execution methods (all same version of youtube-dl)
First: youtube-dl is a fabulous tool and I am grateful to all of the volunteers who have created it.
I have a paid subscription to Rob Cosman's woodworking videos. I would like to download them to watch when I am working away from home, as often I am without an internet connection even close to supporting streaming video.
Some URLs:
The freebie project videos download fine but the paid-for project videos do not.
So this command to download the freebie Lumber Rack video works as expected:
youtube-dl https://robcosman.com/blogs/membership/lumber-rackThis command to download the paid-for project series for the same Lumber Rack:
youtube-dl -v https://robcosman.com/apps/downloads/customers/3143823786050/orders/24472804/order_items/36884745/collections/21828 --cookies cookies.txtor

So the downloads work on the robcosman.com domain for one style of URLs (the freebies) but not the others (paid-for).
I was hoping to download the video archive before I next go away for work, which will be soon.
Happy to provide account credentials and any other information.
