1 month ago some additional context: nicovideo doesn't provide a single file that contains both a video and audio stream, but rather separate video/audio tracks, which is either unsupported on the video player or would cause end-user delays to workaround. currently, yt-dlp chooses an audio-only stream as the "best" one to play, which doesn't work well with video importing
this is also why twitter videos don't have audio. we'll probably either need to wait until we have a better video player or find some way to real-time mux the video/audio in a streaming fashion? not sure
