This issue mainly arises from instances recently disabling download/streaming (most notably, invidious.snopyta.org). There are ways to correctly filter out such instances, such as sorting through the instances list (api.invidious.org) by both api and health (https://api.invidious.io?sort_by=api,health). A workaround is to visit the URL, and select/copy the first instance on the list, and use the --force-instances option like so: invidtui --force-instances <instance URL>
Also, allow users to choose an instance via a popup menu or by command line options.
