Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood

Running yt-dlp on CuriosityStream videos gives the error: No video formats found!

I’ve tried multiple videos and VPNs in different countries.

The videos work in my browser.

This was working the other day.

I don’t think it’s rate limited because I haven’t had a 429 error.

Provide verbose output that clearly demonstrates the problem

• Run your yt-dlp command with -vU flag added (yt-dlp -vU <your command line>)
• Copy the WHOLE output (starting with [debug] Command-line config) and insert it below
