Sign in issues

I tried running the .play command after starting the bot but what I got back in the chat was the following message:

failed to download due to error: [youtube] V64yE5MaDe8: Sign in to confirm you’re not a bot. Use --cookies-from-browser or --cookies for the authentication. See https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/FAQ#how-do-i-pass-cookies-to-yt-dlp for how to manually pass cookies. Also see https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/Extractors#exporting-youtube-cookies for tips on effectively exporting YouTube cookies

I tired the 0Auth branch but that one seems to not be working properly on my end.

@thcprophet
OAuth2 does not work anymore, the last approach that worked for me was importing YT cookies to the machine: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/Extractors#exporting-youtube-cookies

Get cookies.txt LOCALLY chrome extension can be useful for you to do that.
