I keep getting this error every time I download a live stream and it's been happening a lot lately. I usually have to manually restart the download and wait a couple of minutes for it to restart. I wonder if YouTube broke the script.

Thanks for the report. Yes I'm aware of the issue, youtube started breaking more and more a few weeks ago. Still not really sure how to fix the problem unless perhaps resorting to delegate the download step to yt-dlp or something as a temporary measure.
