ytdl.getInfo failed: Error: Error when parsing watch.html, maybe YouTube made a change. #277

ytdl.getInfo error

When using ytdl.getInfo with cookies from a Youtube account I get this error: ytdl.getInfo failed: Error: Error when parsing watch.html, maybe YouTube made a change.

Not sure what I could be doing wrong. This is running in Cloud Run by the way so I'm not sure if that could be an IP banning thing by Youtube.
