I can reproduce the issue and this issue is with yt-dlp and has nothing to do with Media Downloader and therefore does not belong here.

I have posted a comment about this issue in r/youtube-dl and hopefully developer of yt-dlp will see it and respond.

This change of behavior is on yt-dlp and there is nothing i can do in Media Downloader to fix it.

I have looed in yt-dlp documentation and did not see any option to change language so i do not think there is a way to get back the old behavior.
