In certain cases, not sure if this is related to resolution or video quality, the yt downloader uses a VP80 Codec (https://www.screencast.com/t/YpjByam5) and not the typical web optimized h264. I remember we ran into something similar a while ago with John Cleese videos.

Here's an example: lbry://the-metagame-batman-arkham-asylum-20

Not sure what we can do in this case, but maybe we can force h264 or convert via ffpmeg.

@nikooo777 and I looked into this, and he has a way of removing VP8 codecs as an output method. Please close once it's been implemented.

nikooo777 commented 6 years ago

I implemented this in a slightly different way than we discussed yesterday but it works the same.

Closing this as it's live!

tzarebczan commented 6 years ago

Reopening this as I think it caused issues on ALL videos synced since it was implemented. @nikooo777 can you confirm? How do we remedy this?

I checked out a random new channel that was synced: lbry://@Prophetz and it's running into the metadata issue - VP8 codec with a low resolution.

@ all-hands: Tom and I figured out what happened and we're working on a fix.

we fixed the codec issue and now we're dealing with the wrongly synced content.
