Can you watch it in browser? |
|
Yes, I can. This exact error happends regardless whether I supply Twitch credentials or not. |

I'm getting the same 403 in browser: |

Well, If I logout in browser, I can see "?nauth" request in console with 403 response, too. Apparently that's because this VoD is subscribers-only? |

I don't know, there is no indication of that. It should work with login and password provided. Post the output of |

Some extra params are probably passed for premium videos or even a different request. Can't tell anything concrete without a premium account. |

I just discovered that twitch login is broken and "succeeds" from the point of view of youtube-dl but fails in reality. This is because it tries to post the login to The later url is available as self._LOGIN_POST_URL, but since it finds action="/authentications/new" on the login form it tries to urljoin "https://secure.twitch.tv/login" (aka self._LOGIN_URL) and "/authentications/new" giving the first url. The first url gives a page that essentially says "page not found", but more importantly it does not contain an element with class "subwindow_notice", which is what youtube-dl looks for to indicate a login error. As to why it gets the wrong url, I think this is because "https://secure.twitch.tv/login" redirects to "https://passport.twitch.tv/authentications/new?" but _download_webpage doesn't inform us of that. I don't know how to fix it (except for forcing the use of self._LOGIN_POST_URL), which is why this is not a PR. |

Also once you fix this you may encounter (rather often) a captcha error. This I don't know how to bypass. |

This won't be fixed until somebody provides premium for testing. |
|
Can I mail you at the address on your profile? |
|
Yes. |
|
I'm also having the same problem (can't download a VOD that's only available to channel subscribers), and I'm happy to help debug. |
|
I would be willing to donate a subscribed Twitch account again. (@dstftw) |
