403 Error

[osugo]

I am using youtbe-dl to get the mp3 urls of youtube videos. It has been working great until recently when only a few of the links returned actually played music. The rest result in an error 403. All attempts to remedy this have failed.

Is there anything that can be done about this?

Post the full output of youtube-dl when run with --verbose option.
