YouTube Transcript Extraction is enhanced as of v1.4.278

[ksylvan]

Here is what is happening (even with the YouTube API key configured):

fabric -y "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TSsAllb8BI&pp=0gcJCccJAYcqIYzv"
YouTube requires authentication (bot detection). Use --yt-dlp-args '--cookies-from-browser BROWSER' where BROWSER is chrome, firefox, brave, etc. Error: exit status 1

And with the new flag:

fabric -y 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXcoeI9XoUM' --yt-dlp-args='--cookies-from-browser brave'
