[ISSUE] Amazing App, but Facing Download Speed Limitations

[nautilus744]

Hi Namida Team

First of all, thank you for this incredible app! It’s been really useful, and I appreciate the effort you’ve put into it.

I’m encountering an issue with YouTube downloads where the speed seems to be capped at a very low rate. Even for small files, it takes several hours to complete a download. Is this a known limitation, or could there be a way to improve the download speed?

Thanks again for your hard work, and I’d be grateful for any insights or fixes you might have!

Best regards, Nautilus

hi thank u so much! yeah the slow download is known (and its quite random), the reason is simply that most clients that supported cookies stopped working without poToken, now we use a client that doesn't support cookies so ur download speed is quite random (sometimes capped sometimes not)

there was a similar discussion too #590 and same explination here https://github.com/namidaco/namida/discussions/590#discussioncomment-13470887

Possible solution

• there is a configure icon in accounts page that lets u set poToken and visitorData if u can extract them, however i didn't get the chance to test it
• implementing download threads #226 (this would only improve it a lil bit, not planned currently)

thanks for liking namida tho :D
