I have the password to access the video on dailymotion but I cannot download it using yt-dlp. I get the error ERROR: [dailymotion] x7yqr1a: This user does not have access to the video. A password must be provided. but I am already providing the password.

I've tried using --video-password "password" "url" (both with and without quotes) and I've tried entering the password into the video and then grabbing the cookies and putting it into cookies.txt file: --cookies "path/to/cookies.txt"

Both method returns ERROR: [dailymotion] x7yqr1a: This user does not have access to the video. A password must be provided.

Here's what I treid (I removed URL for privacy reasons and the "password" is just arbitrary)

yt-dlp -c -P "/Users/Macbook/" -o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" -f "bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/best[ext=mp4]/best"  --video-password "password" "URL"

and

yt-dlp -c -P "/Users/Macbook/" -o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" -f "bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/best[ext=mp4]/best" "URL" --cookies "path/to/cookies.txt"
