OK, so the tell that the extractor uses to detect subscriber content is still there. If you visit one of the subscription pages with your login you should be able to see if that's also true. The patterns for the tell are in the hunk '@@ -82,7 +88,10 @@' of the patch.

Then:

if the page still has the tell, maybe we need to find some way to distinguish when the subscribed content is actually accessible;
if not, just passing the cookies is not allowing the extractor to get the same sort of page that the browser sees: either the cookies are not actually being sent (you can see that with --print-traffic) or some further headers (a User-Agent that matches the cookies, Referer, or whatever) are being required by the site.

raywenderlich.ry

I modified the raywenderlich.py file manually, I think was not mistaken in this.

It's the same as the patched yt-dl file, except for Windows line endings and this line, which only works if you're using a modified extractor/common.py, such as the one from yt-dlp:

-        mobj = re.match(self._VALID_URL, url)
+        mobj = self._match_valid_url(url)

But as you're actually using that version, you should carry on the issue in the yt-dlp tracker, where there is the benefit that probably more eyes will see it.
