Youtube-dl library and ERROR 403: Forbidden when using generated direct link by youtube-dl from different locations

Question

I have a problem with youtube-dl library (https://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/). I use youtube-dl not for directly downloading videos by this library, instead I first generate li

Answer 1

youtube-dl --rm-cache-dir

it works perfectly :)

Answer 2

If dstftw's answer doesn't work for you, try with root: su youtube-dl --rm-cache-dir

Answer 3

Final download URLs are only guaranteed to work on the same machine/IP where extracted. More on this.

UPD: To get rid of 403 remove the cache by running youtube-dl --rm-cache-dir on behalf of www-data.
