  Ive never heard of seal before. No idea if that’s a good software or how it’s using yt-dlp or what version of yt-dlp it is using.

  I would try yt-dlp on a computer with the –verbose flag.

      After you install it, You type

      yt-dlp --verbose URL
      

      Just replace URL with the url you want to download.

      There are GUI programs that use yt-dlp underneath. I use YtDownloader, altho I haven’t tried it with an age-restricted video.

      (Freetube definitely can’t view age-restricted videos.)
