Switch To YT-DLP? #32

Closed kyleinprogress closed 2 years ago

I was trying to use your container and was having issues downloading videos from my subscriptions. After a bit of debugging, it's apparently a known issue with youtube-dl. Looking a little deeper, youtube-dl hasn't been updated in almost 2 months and the last release is from June. Given that they historically released updates weekly (if not more), I'm starting the think the project is dying off.

YT-DLP has taken over and is staying on top off issues and PRs.

👍 Agreed, I have better experience with yt-dlp at the moment, in particular videos download faster. See also: https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/29965
