Youtube-dl error message: Got error: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden

I want to download a video with youtubedl

I have my options to set to:

ydl_opts = {
    'verbose': False,
    'ignoreerrors': True,
    'cachedir': None,
    'outtmpl': "%(title)s.%(ext)s",
    'format': 'm4a/bestaudio/best',
    'postprocessors': [{ 
        'key': 'FFmpegExtractAudio',
        'preferredcodec': 'm4a',
    }]
}

But the program gives me this error

[download] Got error: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden 
ERROR: fragment 1 not found, unable to continue

I am on the latest version youtube-dl available with pip.

I tried to add a referrer because I read that might work from a previous post, but that was unsuccessful.
