One of two things is likely happening

• we are still accidently referencing old or wrong code. If this is the case, fix it or uninstall
• the code has a different behaviour
  • on ARM - need to accelerate object store issue #67
  • old Python - accelerate move to 3B+ with SSD
  • without certian dependencies present - get them

It's clearly still following https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/blob/master/youtube_dl/extractor/youtube.py ...

1. Look at installed code
2. Uninstall legacy ytdl

[ctengel]

We are capped at yt-dlp 2021.06.01 on Python 3.5.

Therefore need to move to 3B+ with SSD - need to make sure we get metadata over in a way consistent with #70

[ctengel]

Upon moving to Python 3.9 (believed all 3.6+ is OK still) it began working seamlessly as a drop in replacement for ytdl.
