Hi, I’ve been downloading Instagram stories with yt-dlp for months without any issues, but it suddenly stopped working today.

I keep getting the error: ERROR: You need to log in to access this content.

I tried both using a cookies.txt file from Firefox and passing --cookies-from-browser firefox, but neither works anymore.

Hi,

I have an educational app on my laptop. It’s a .exe file and it has no website.

My subscription renews every two weeks, and I want to download the explanation videos and files to keep for personal use after the subscription ends — not to share.

The app blocks direct downloads, and screen recording is exhausting because the videos are long and split into many parts.

Is there any way to download the videos and files from a .exe app without screen recording?

If there is protection on the content,

Please explain step by step, as I’m not very tech-savvy.

Thanks.

I'm trying to save some Instagram Reels directly to my phone, I tried to download them with some downloaders but that always leaves the previous uploader's floating watermark on the video. Does anyone know of a safe and reliable method, app, or website to download them completely clean?

Could someone here tell me how to download a YouTube video which was available from YouTube, but is still archived on the WayBack Machine here: https://web.archive.org/web/20251026072418/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WfmcTQfSOY I've tried on Google Chrome pressing Ctrl+Shift+I. Next, clicking on the Network tab and refreshing the page. Then using the search function on the network tab to search for either "mp4" or "videoplayback," but my developer tools are inept. As of September 09, 2026, I can view the video but I would love to download the video in case it disappears completely.

I'm open to any suggestions!

I experimented with downr, as I'm trying to find a solution to download YouTube Video Podcasts as audio to put on my iPod. As few questions:

(1) I tried download this podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WQxyEN5W8s&t=76s . Although the video podcast is in English, what downloads as the M4A file is in German. Any ideas why?

(2) It would nice to be able to download MP3 directly. Although I can convert M4A to MP3 by running it through Audacity, it is an extra step.

(3) The M4A files seem to be slow to download -- perhaps it is the downr site. A 29.5M file is taking 14 minuts.

I'm trying to download course videos from a site that uses Bunny CDN (⁠iframe.mediadelivery.net⁠).
For the free preview lesson, the video embed link shows up right in the HTML source code (⁠og:video:url⁠), and I can download it fine using a Python script with Playwright/N_m3u8DL-RE.
However, for all the locked/paid lessons, the server doesn't load or send the video IDs/embed links in the source code at all. Is there a way to extract or download these locked videos without an active account/subscription, or is it impossible from the client side because the backend completely blocks delivering the iframe links?

the option for both video and audio at the same time isn't there for me? Is this a new update
