Getting a 403 error on many videos when attempting to download any of the media streams. For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkF3oxziUI4

Also getting the same behavior. Same 403 error happens on every video I've tried today. It was working fine yesterday running on the same code.

Looks like a breaking change on YouTube's side. Will take a look when I have time.

Pushed a new version
