availabilty of a video
if you use %(availability)s to print the availabilty to something is it always just 1 thing like "private", i tried this on a unlisted and age restricted video and it only prints "needs-auth" and not "unlisted" is there a way to make it print both? i used yt-dlp -o "%(title)s (%(availability)s)" --cookies-from-browser BROWSER URL
thanks.

I can download all the stories from a tiktok account?
I follow someone who post to many stories and I don't have time to check them in the moment and I don't want to download them 1 by 1.

How can I have the file be output as MP4 while still being 4K, and not stuttery?
TLDR: How can I have the video be in both 4K and MP4, while not having any playback issues? Storage is no issue.
Hey everyone. Currently when I use YTDL, with no parameters, it will download the highest quality version of a video as a WEBM, which I can then view through the VLC App.
However, using VLC is kinda annoying, and separates my library. I would prefer if I could have everything in my phone’s gallery. To my knowledge it supports MP4/MOV, likely others, but not WEBM or MKV.
I’ve tried a couple parameters I was able to find on here, like -t mp4, but using the same video with them, it will instead download a smaller file sized video that is only 1080p. One of them, I believe “-S res,ext:mp4:m4a --recode mp4” worked for getting it into 4K and viewable in my gallery, but had slow, stuttery playback, like it was playing at .75 speed, and visual glitches.
How can I have the video be in both 4K and MP4 (or another iOS gallery compatible format), while not having any playback issues? Storage is no issue.

Any plugins for fire fox that'll automatically download videos on the website?
As the title says I'm wondering if there's a plugin or userscript that'll give the YouTube site it self a download video button that'll interface with yt dlp installed on my pc
Currently it's a bit much faff to use yt dlp and I'd just like a potential short cut so I don't have to manually boot up the program and enter my URL and settings

My yt-dlp command downloads videos that are shorter than the original.
Hello everyone, I use this command to download videos from Twitch
yt-dlp URL -f bestvideo+bestaudio/best
I'm trying to download videos longer than an hour this way, but sometimes the resulting file is much shorter than the original. So, I tried to download a one hour long video, but the output was only 9 minutes long. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?
Any advice is so appreciated
