Hello, I've had this issue in the past and fixed it by modifying my application.yml file.

Issue seems to be back again, no changes made really, it was working fine just a couple days ago. (since July)

lavalink.jar up to date (25th august release)
Red up to date (3.5.13)

It randomly returns the 403 error on some songs, but not all.

Any ideas on what could be causing this ?

Here's my Application.yml:

plugins:
  youtube:
    enabled: true
    allowSearch: true
    allowDirectVideoIds: true
    allowDirectPlaylistIds: true
    clients:

[Space-Gate]

I have the exact same problem, with same lavalink 3.7.13 and youtube-plugin 1.8.3 version or lower...
Also my machine only has ipv4 activated. so no ipv6 rotating. Maybe this is causing the error also.

These instructions are outdated, see Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot#4505 for the latest fixes!

Since you are both commenting on the Lavalink.jar repository and not in a Red-DiscordBot issue, I'm going to answer this as if you are managing your own Lavalink node. You need to update the yt source plugin to 1.8.3 and take a look at the sources you are using in your application.yml. Currently I'm testing with:

    clients:
      - MUSIC
      - WEB
      - WEBEMBEDDED
      - ANDROID_TESTSUITE
      - TVHTML5EMBEDDED
      - MEDIA_CONNECT
      - IOS

If this message isn't informative for you or you don't understand what to do with this information and you are a Red-DiscordBot user, you should wait until there is a new Red version which will include the changes I'm describing here.

Thanks for the reply to both of you.

Yes I am running a lavalink node on which two disctinct Redbots instance connect to.

I was using the following sources:

 clients:
      - MUSIC
      - WEB
      - ANDROID_TESTSUITE
      - TVHTML5EMBEDDED
      - ANDROID_LITE
      - MEDIA_CONNECT
      - IOS

I've updated my application.yml with the same exact sources as you've indicated to test, and once again you've found the issue @aikaterna.

I am guessing either ANDROID_LITE or MEDIA_CONNECT was causing the issue?

Or simply adding WEBEMBEDDED fixed it?

I can't really confirm.

I've tested 2-3 albums that were returning 403 on some songs and everything seems to be working fine now.

Thanks once again!

**Edit: After testing some Youtube videos, most of them work except for a channel in particular so far, not exactly sure why. Error 403 again.
