Your question
If a YouTube video is labelled "Age-restricted video (based on Community Guidelines)", Video Downloadhelper does not even show that the video exists.
"No media to process in the current tab - Click play on video to help detect files…" shows when you click on the Video Downloadhelper icon in the upper right hand corner of the YouTube web page loaded in Firefox.
For example, I'll provide links to two videos by the rock band Therion. The first is not age restricted. Video Downloadhelper will recognize that it's available for download. The second video is age restricted. Video Downloadhelper won't even show that it exists.
Hopefully, there's a solution to this problem. Here are the example videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFD7YIk_9dw - not age restricted and comes up in Video Downloadhelper
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scdffAiRllY - age restricted and does not come up in Video Downloadhelper
