Incorrect yt-dlp metadata parsing (v2.5.8)

  1. After updating to this version, I found that it was very easy to crash when downloading streaming YouTube videos, and I couldn't find the YouTube series directly. And the video can not be downloaded even if the video is detected successfully.
  2. For the video download address of M3U8, you can download and merge TS clips directly. Because yt-dlp supports this operation. Hope to support him. Video example: https://data.cache.m3u8.lscsfw.com:3395/cache/2022-11-05/4108/8ce25c297cbb37e7eef7a4551fddc710.m3u8?st=wEnDYnThfd39Gu9P9GTmKw&e=1667657913

When I downloaded the YouTube series, I found that the file had been downloading all the time. There is no progress and the download of the file cannot be completed. image

  1. Video file download is abnormal. The download file size and total size are not the same.
  2. In the file download address, there are inexplicably many more 1KB files, or some video problems have been downloaded repeatedly.
  3. Choose the video format for the downloaded files, but not all of them. You can only choose one by one.

Hi, It's a bug, the file metadata is not pass correctly, or yt-dlp metadata is not calculated. I noticed this too, it happens sometimes for some videos. It needs investigation. Regards
