peertube-import-videos pass arbitrary options to youtube-dl #2377

Closed drzraf closed 4 years ago

What happened?

I'd like to import using IPv6/IPv4 exclusively

What do you expect to happen instead? I can't

I think that providing youtube-dl full-options support would add flexibility to the import process and adapt to the many possible edge-cases.

Really important since youtube is getting more and more opposed to downloading (your own videos). I used to be able to download 50 of my videos in a row per day. It's now down to 5 in a row. Settings timeout, custom downloaders, ipv4, cookies & co will become increasingly important for the importer to be actually useful.
