Subject: [gentoo-user] youtube-dl has been very slow
Date: Sat, 06 Nov 2021 16:32:33 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m37ddlowim.wl-covici@ccs.covici.com> (raw)
Hi. If I try to play a youtube video using a console app like mpv, or
if I try to download a youtube video directly by using youtube-dl, the
speed is about dialup speed. Now, I have a Winblows box in the same
network and I don't get the slowdown. I have a program there which
downloads the same exact youtube video quite rapidly. Is youtube-dl
doing something wrong maybe by having a wrong user agent, or is there
something else to be done? My version is 2021.06.06. This seems
quite old to me for this program.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
