Trouble downloading YouTube playlist to RPi 4 — workaround seems to be "yt-dlp --update-to nightly" #338

[ Problem report from @nzola ]

I installed iiab on pi4 last weekend, after not doing this install for a while..

  1. [Calibre-Web] could not install most of the videos on this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtalvqF6zjCOjYNaXs8iUnglWXZvZdIXY
    I tried retrieving the same playlist on Windows CMD, using yt-dlp, it fails all the videos as well. Than I upgraded yt-dlp on CMD with this script: yt-dlp --update-to nightly. then the whole playlist was downloaded on Windows CMD.

  2. Just for your info. I downloaded the playlist here above, using CMD onto my computer, then used [Calibre-Web] upload onto iiab. It worked.
