### Region

Russia

### Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood

I try to download the playlist https://vk.com/video/playlist/-216539463_38 with 84 videos and some of them output the error caused by KeyError('params'). For example I try to download the first video from the playlist:
`yt-dlp -vU http://vk.com/video-216539463_456239290`
and I get the same error KeyError('params') which I cannot find in the known issues and the bugtracker.

### Provide verbose output that clearly demonstrates the problem

- [X] Run **your** yt-dlp command with **-vU** flag added (`yt-dlp -vU <your command line>`)
- [x] If using API, add `'verbose': True` to `YoutubeDL` params instead
- [X] Copy the WHOLE output (starting with `[debug] Command-line config`) and insert it below
