Pytube Playlist object only returns the first 203 videos from a 1,000 video playlist [BUG]
It seems that the Playlist object only grabs the first 203 videos of this massive playlist I'm trying to download. Is there a way around this, either within pytube or by shortening the playlist before giving it to pytube? (it's not my playlist so I can't split it up manually)

Hello @classic-sasquatch-behavior ,
could you please provide example URL of a playlist? It is hard to debug without an example.
For me, this works:
from pytube import Playlist
p = Playlist('https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCk9xy9nZ8GaR77HEbW6kmh99lpyh7yM1') #some hip-hop playlist containing over 203 videos
videos = p.videos
videos
will be list of YouTube.
I had the same problem with a playlist with 800 videos. I went step by step in the python notebook file while downloading the playlist. It should be noted that it took some time, it took me 2 minutes to pull 800 videos as an object. Sometimes it is being interrupted, it is necessary to try again.
