Youtube-dl requires authentication

[StarEngineer89]

Hi,
I use this library in Codeigniter 4.

The code is like here:
$yt = new YoutubeDl();
$yt->setBinPath('C:\ffmpeg\bin\yt-dlp.exe');
$collection = $yt->download(
Options::create()
->downloadPath(WRITEPATH . 'uploads/youtube')
->extractAudio(true)
->audioFormat('mp3')
->audioQuality('0') // best
->output($video_id)
->url($youtubeLink)
);

But I'm getting this error:
"Error downloading video: [youtube] DpoeBatCwBQ: Sign in to confirm you're not a bot. This helps protect our community. Learn more."

So I tried to use the authenticate method and changed the code like this:
$yt = new YoutubeDl();
$yt->setBinPath('C:\ffmpeg\bin\yt-dlp.exe');
$youtubeUsername = env('youtube_auth_username');
$youtubePassword = env('youtube_auth_password');
$collection = $yt->download(
Options::create()
->authenticate($youtubeUsername, $youtubePassword)
->downloadPath(WRITEPATH . 'uploads/youtube')
->extractAudio(true)
->audioFormat('mp3')
->audioQuality('0') // best
->output($video_id)
->url($youtubeLink)
);

But I'm still getting the same error.
How can I resolve this issue?

Thank you

Hi @StarEngineer89
I didn't encounter this error yet so cannot 100% say how to solve this.
But one solution for you is to try making this work with command line manually and then we'll see how to solve it

Hi, @norkunas
I run the sample code in the readme.txt with command line manually, but it shows the same error message.

How can I pass this robot check?

Here is the screenshot of this error message.
