yt.dlp and age gated videos on youtube (midwest.social)

Hello,

Im not terribly adept at this, but I got yt.dlp working. There is one age gated video Ive been wanting to watch. I tried inputing the credentials for a verified youtube account, and I got an error message with

"log in with password is not supported for youtube." Then listed error 7271, could not copy chrome cookie data, which I thought was weird, because I dont have chrome and was not using it as the browser.

Am I missing something? Or is this functionality no longer available, at least for the time being?

I appreciate your step by step instruction and links to similar help threads. I do have firefox, but its my primary browser. Ive found it to be easier to log into google with a secondary browser, in this case, Edge.

I dont mind dropping the link, but its Action Button's LA Noir Video, its 10 hours long
