I'm trying to download some videos from a channel with a paid subscription. In my docker-compose, I have a volume for the cookies /opt/apps/metube:/cookies and I also have the following set under the Environment: YTDL_OPTIONS={"cookiefile":"/cookies/cookies.txt","writesubtitles":true} (I've also tried with the cookiefile path being /opt/apps/metube and that didn't change anything.

When I try to execute a command manually (yt-dlp -P /mnt/downloads/subtitles --write-subs --convert-subs srt --cookies /opt/apps/metube/cookies.txt --yes-playlist <url>), it hangs at ERROR: unable to download video data: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden.

Please verify that /opt/apps/metube/cookies.txt is a valid Netscape cookies file. It cannot be in the Firefox cookies format.
