Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood

This error message occurs when attempting to download from a long playlist. I have experienced it starting at around the 180th item on some playlists. Here it starts at about 280. Before the cutoff yt-dlp retrieves information as normal, following the cutoff point all requests generate the error message.

Provide verbose output that clearly demonstrates the problem

  • Run your yt-dlp command with -vU flag added (yt-dlp -vU <your command line>)
  • If using API, add 'verbose': True to YoutubeDL params instead
  • Copy the WHOLE output (starting with [debug] Command-line config) and insert it below
