4 years ago hmm! sorry for the trouble. i see your attempts, and i haven't figured out why they hung yet, but i tried again just now after restarting apache (unrelated reasons), and i was able to huffduff that video successfully, so maybe transient.

4 years ago Sorry.... When I try that vid now, it works immediately cuz it was already downloaded (presumably by you). But when I try another vid (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-CqpTdhluw), it hangs in exactly the same way (on "Extracting Audio"). I can't imagine what the problem might be. It should be a server-side problem, but it sounds like it's only happening to me...?

4 years ago i have an odd lead on this. i recently noticed that comcast is blocking huffduff-video, maybe, for some reason. background: https://www.reddit.com/r/Comcast_Xfinity/comments/dblr1e/there_is_an_issue_with_your_connection/ . still investigating.

4 years ago I have a feeling that that's not it. I'm using the Stanford University wifi, and I've also used a VPN, and the same problem occurs each time. Perhaps there's something odd happening with youtube-dl or ffmpeg? The other day, youtube-dl downloaded the video in the wrong format (mkv) for me for some reason....

4 years ago hey ajay, mind trying again? youtube started blocking huffduff-video, which may have been part of this. details in https://github.com/snarfed/huffduff-video/issues/37. i switched to a new IP address, which seems like it's fixed that at least.

4 years ago tentatively closing. feel free to reopen!
Using huffduffer, it seems to just hang and never get past "Extracting Audio (this can take a while)...".
I've let it run for over 30 minutes, and it doesn't complete. It's never been like this before. Any idea what's up? Here's the vid I tried it on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yH6Z9m2vsg . Also tried another vid and it didn't work.
