@SARIBEG10 I don't what "channel info" you're talking about, but that's fine. Anyway, when did you extract the ~~info~~ above link?

EDIT: changed "info" to "above link"

See #29911.

Try this somewhere where the proxy isn't required.

Because the download links supplied by sites like YT expire, you can't have a workflow that extracts a download link for each video in the channel and then downloads each link in turn. Instead, extract a preferred format_id, which is usually stable, and then use that for each download; obviously but unavoidably, each video page has to be extracted just before the video download.

this link is expired you right i try to generate new link ==> youtube-dl --proxy=http://localhost:8118 -f 136 -g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v={vid}
then get generated link by :

curl -w '%{http_code}' -L -x http://localhost:8118 [generated_link]

then its return 200 http status code

Almost always 403 for a download link is because it has expired, so you can just test that with curl -I ... and re-run yt-dl to get a fresh link, or indeed actually download from it.

yt-dl has some features that might help in archiving your channel:

--download-archive ... records downloaded items so thatthey don't get downloaded twice
playlist-items ... (etc) allow you to download only certain items from a playlist or channel.
More in the Manual.
