Hi,

I'm having a problem being able to download something from YouTube in pontes media downloader. Usually when I've had a problem before it says error in the downloads table. But this time I have left it trying to download something for ages and it just says 0% and starting.

But no mention of an error.

Has anyone got any ideas what would be going on or what I can try to fix it? Or any other ways that people download audio from websites?

The problem is that the older version of Youtube DL that Pontes Media Downloader uses is broken. The solution is to find the Youtube DLP fork and replace the YoutubeDL engine in the app with that binary.
