Config and Subcriptions is working for all of my channels and Playlists. But the Channel @Grian is the only one with this error.

Looks like this error might have to do with the colored subtitles? https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/5158

You could try turning off subtitle pulling for this subscription if you have them turned on. https://ytdl-sub.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config_reference/plugins.html#subtitles

subtitles:
  embed_subtitles: False

Yes, of course it's a temp workaround. But it would be great, if it' s patched in the future. Or just Handle the exception, an skip subtitle for this specific video and proceed with the rest of the subscriptions videos...

How are you running ytdl-sub @ST3FAN-DE ? it could be a stale ffmpeg issue (though doubtful). The issue is happening within yt-dlp so it may be worth filing an issue there or searching their GH for a workaround
