has to do with youtube throttling almost all ytdl downloads. jelle is planning to switch to youtube-dlp, which is said to fix the issue.

jely2002 commented 3 years ago

I'm currently working on a switch to YT-DLP which should fix this annoying throttling by YouTube. Stay tuned! Duplicate of #225, #147. I will be closing this issue as it is a duplicate. Progress can be followed in #225.
