I've been using Tartube to get videos from Dropout.tv for a while now with no issues. But some of their newer videos have been giving me problems and errors. I'll get read timed out errors, I've gotten a 'ERROR: Stream #1:0 -> #0:1 (copy)" error, and most of the time the end result is a video file with no audio, and a seperate audio file. I tested older videos and they worked just fine, I made sure that Tartube, YT DLP, and ffmpeg were all up to date, and I even tried a fresh install on a different computer, and the problem keeps happening with the newer videos from dropout. Of the 10 or so random videos I tested from them, only 2 worked properly.

If dropout.tv videos were downloadable until recently, then it's likely to be a yt-dlp issue. Dropout seems to be a subscription service, so I wasn't able to do any testing of my own.
