Disclaimer: this is most likely not a FlashGot's issue, but it is very close to that, and I am sure here are a lot of people knowing an answer that I failed to find in Google.

So my new place's (edge of the world) ISP only has an unlimited traffic at night, but I have a ton of YouTube subscriptions I am used to watch everyday. So my solution was setting up FlashGot + uGet combo. At the first evening I added a whole list of them, figured out DASH parts thing, configured uGet schedule and went to sleep. When I woke up I came back to almost all of them (not everything got fit into tight night unlimited traffic window) being downloaded, and that was amazing. But at the next night, everything I set up both from the last evening and from that evening was failed to download because of error 403:

I can't schedule anything from then. I can download videos I just got links for but nothing works after X time. What I tried:

1. obvious solutions: restart same links, open/close browsers etc;
2. setting uGet cookies from newer links to older ones, with my Gmail logged on/off;
3. clearing all uGet cookies;
4. playing with uGet connection settings: number of connections, retries etc (I've seen someone using other DM fixing similar problem with that while digging through Internet);
5. setting my Gmail login and password for uGet;
6. googling it: see disclaimer;
7. asking on uGet forums: ugetdm.comslashforumslashviewtopic.php?f=2&t=1013 but that forum is dead.

What can I do to get everything fixed?

Download links expire in a few hours. If all you need is unattended batch download, youtube-dl is a better choice. Just save your video page URLs (/watch?v=...) to a file, one URL per line, and feed it to youtube-dl via the "--batch-file" (or "-a") switch:

Thank you, I will try.
