Research direction
Investigate the specific video URL and the AES 128 encryption handling. Compare the yt dlp command used by Seal with the one that works on Windows. Check the comments for any suggested fixes or workarounds. Look at the yt dlp extraction code in the repository to see if there is a missing option for this site.
