I am trying to download the channel https://www.youtube.com/@WatercolorbyShibasaki and it will not pull. Utilizing Debug is giving this error

Interestingly enough is if I click the link in the url I get taken to a different page

https://www.youtube.com/shibasaki

Even entering the URL manually does this redirect to that same link above.

Yet if I search for the channel and click it, it will take me to the page.

I dont know what Youtube is doing to do this and curious if anyone has experienced this and knows a workaround.

Try to use the other URL that works, could be yt-dlp doesn't handle the redirection as intended

Thanks. Tried that and it didn't work either. Found that if I use the explicit channel ID URL, e.g. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPiQ_mEXdEbB-3Yhiq7gq5w it looks to work.
