YouTube Video unavailable

[Stan001]

Getting Video unavailable for any YouTube video I try. Checked 6223 and 6224.

ADDED : Ok, never mind, I checked in browser and YouTube is doing the same thing. Will try a reboot etc ...

Ok, after long research, it seems Google/YouTube can block Google/YouTube user accounts for an UNDETERMINED amount of time. Until if/when they maybe remove the block, you will get that message for ALL YouTube videos.
BTW, if I log out of YouTube I can play videos so it is account biased.
Other people who got it created additional Google/YouTube accounts so they can be logged on because (While logged out) after playing a 'set' amount of videos you get 'Are you a bot' and also can get blocked with age restricted messages.

Specific message:

This was caused by downloading too many YouTube videos at one time in one day.
SO THIS IS A WARNING FOR OTHERS.

jpp72 OR Cats4U You can change this to NOT a Streamfab issue and maybe mark answered and maybe close if you feel like it, thanks.

What kind of activity were you doing that they found "suspicious"? Many downloads, one after the other? Anything else you can think of?

Did you try cleaning out all your YouTube cookies and cache before trying to do an SF download from YouTube? I'm not particularly fond of StreamFab as a YouTube downloader. For me, it usually works, but I much prefer using TubeDigger, IDM, or back to the basics, YT-DLP. Maybe try using various programs to get YouTube videos to confuse Google's bot algorithm?

It was downloading too many videos, in a very short time, in one day. I googled the error message, and it came up that the YouTube account is blocked, and it can be weeks or months if it gets unblocked at all. Trying to clear caches and cookies would do no good, as the block gets attached to the account you're logged into. It would not matter what downloader is being used, that's why I corrected myself to say this is NOT a streamfab issue. The only way it might matter what downloader is if it limits you in some way so as not to kick in the block. SF has NO limit on YouTube downloads, I am not sure if many YouTube downloaders do, some can be adjusted in how fast they do each video, so in a way, I guess that's a limit.

Also, most decent YouTube downloaders end up asking for money, (like Tubedigger etc...). I have looked at numerous free ones and overall was not happy with most.

As far as getting past the YouTube bot algorithm, the only way that worked for me was to be logged into YouTube.

I am not overall happy with the only fix I can see, but I have no choice but to use another YouTube account.

I can see videos while logged out but again like I said if I were to try downloading again then YouTube kicks in saying to log in to prove I am not a bot.
My current YouTube account is useless as all videos do the same thing, and I do mean ALL. I will put a screenshot at the end of this post of the YouTube videos.

This overall ends up as a warning for others, be cautious about how many you download per day, or others will end up with blocked accounts like many others I have run into after googling the issue. Again, some got unblocked in weeks others waited months, and some are still waiting to be unblocked.

Hoping the best for others concerning YouTube. And have a few spare YouTube accounts handy.
