Now it’s official and it’s been a few weeks that some videos I download using podsync have a very bad translation into English. Would it be possible to add a “language=“ in the config file?

I second this...though mine seems to be downloading a German translation.

I added youtube_dl_args = ["-f [language=en]"] to each feed and that seemed to have locked in the language to English.

Solution works for other language codes as well (so far). Thanks! (Not all videos are natural-born English, was really shocked to hear ugly sounding lifeless AI-voiced horrible pseudo-English translation instead of some expected non-English podcast..)
