Gmail login not working

I'm using Safari 12.0.2 on Mac OS X 10.14.2 and ClipGrab 3.7.2. If I try to download a Youtube video you have to login for (age verification) with Gmail, the login doesn't work because the browser doesn't support Javascript. But JAvascript is enabled in Safari.

    Here's a link as an example:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLjAkEWDz4o

    And here's the error message:
    "Couldn't sign you in
    The browser that you're using doesn't support JavaScript, or has JavaScript turned off.
    To keep your Google Account secure, try signing in on a browser that has JavaScript turned on."

    And then… can't even "Cancel" the thing, need to Force Quit ClipGrab :(

    So what is the solution, any? (These r many of the important videos that need to be downloaded and saved for backup purposes before they are deleted, but its not possible to download them via clipgrab, or any other that I know of for that matter)

    I had the same issue, and I looked into it and it appears that ClipGrab uses a different internet browser (I can't quite identify which one it is, but it is certainly not Safari, Chrome, Firefox, or Microsoft Edge/Explorer). The browser also does not support Javascript, so I can't find a way to download an age restricted video via ClipGrab.

    I've encountered this twice on two different videos. Everything on my end hasn't been changed and I thought it might have been because I didn't have the latest version, but same deal after getting the update.

    Same here; javascript is enabled in Firefox, Safari, Chrome, etc., none of them work and ClipGrab shows this error. This is only an issue when having to log into YouTube to view videos that require that login.
