Hope that helps some of you

I've tried that but all *.mp4 variants(480p/720p/1080p) are still only downloading at 50kbps or slower. :(

Guess I'll just have to wait until new updates show up.

Although... something seems weird... if I'm watching a very long YouTube video in 1080p in my browser, I can watch it just fine from beginning to end. But if I try to download it, Jdownloader2 reports that the download time is over 2 hours. (much longer than the video itself)

This is reasonably unlikely. There are millions of people streaming YT videos every day. What JD users should be doing, is making sure they do not use settings that would alert any anti-bot detectors. I'm gonna guess the most obvious one would be multiple simultaneous downloads. Personally, I set my JD to download one file at a time, and only make exceptions if certain filehosts throttle the DL speed by default.

Like many times before, YT changed something under the hood, and this has caused JD to bug out. On the surface, all I can see is that certain on-screen buttons are larger and more prominent. Sadly, all we can do is wait for a fix. Or, try an alternate downloader. Although, it is possible that other downloaders may also be affected.

Yes, it doesn't seem to affect all formats.

With yt-dlp (2022.08.19) including phantomjs it works perfectly again.
I think we will get a fix for this problem soon.

I don't think it makes any difference in terms of data volume whether you watch a video for x hours or download it in a few minutes.
What would be noticeable, however, would be the data rate for downloads.

Only I think that "clubs" like Youtube has sufficient hardware to intercept such data rates or to serve.

Since Youtube bombards me with advertising and tyrannizes, I download more clips / videos, etc. at Youtube to be spared from this annoying advertising bomb and exactly that was prevented with this data limitation of Yotube side for now. In any case, one tries this...

What makes this YT Downloader under DOS surface different than JD? Since you can still save with max speed his clips.

Not all download tools are affected by the data rate limitation.
These differences would now have to be found out.

Maybe this would also be a possible tip to solve the problem.

Natürlich! Am Ende wandern die Daten über Http/2/3 und dort kann ohne weiteres eine bestimmte Datenrate limitiert werden.

@Jiaz

so has the speed issue been solved and the plugin update just needs to go live or is the issue still being worked on? It isn't too clear. Is there a way for us to track progress of this?

@Jiaz

I don't mean to be bothersome but I updated JD and I still have the issue. is the update not out? when? do plugin updates go out every hour, day? do I need to remove these videos from JD and re-add them?

I don't think an update is pushed yet. Mind you, I have zero information to go off of for this (how updates are pushed regionally, time-zone coordinated, etc etc). I can only go off the info I have/I know: I've had the JD2 program up and running for days straight, before and during this "slowdown" issue. I just now, as I'm typing this, closed and re-opened JD and checked the build date: says Sun Jun 26 11:07:23 CEST 2022. And yes, my videos are still downloading at a snail's pace.
So my assumption is: the update isn't out yet. However, if YOU indeed have a new/updated version, and you are still getting slow downloads, I'm gonna lose some hope.... (but only a tiny bit, because the JD2 team is f%$#ing awesome and I know it'll get resolved in time!!!)

Let me see if I got it. What you're saying is that I should prefer to download in '.mp4' format instead of others, so the limitation disappears? Look, I just did a test here, I captured a random link on YT and chose MP4 format for video... BUT, the problem persisted, the video stream dropped to 55~65kbps; then, shortly after, downloaded the audio stream in an UNLIMITED way again. As I said, this is what is happening. It's horrible because the audio part is always smaller than the video part, so for a week I've been forced to wait more than 1 hour to download a long video in reasonable 720p quality. It's sad! JDownloader 2 NEED an urgent update to adapt to the parameters imposed by Google on its video platform, Youtube. I hope the JD2 guys recognize this need, or at least review the project to see what's going on.

Guten morgen,
ich habe gerade festgestellt das der Download von YT plötzlich sehr langsam ist
zb bei diesem **External links are only visible to Support Staff**Video läd der plötzlich nur noch mit knapp 47kib/s runter.

Dieses **External links are only visible to Support Staff**Video braucht ähnlich lange zum Download
Ich habe kein Speedlimit drin.

Woran kann das liegen?

Well, they know that JD needs an update and they are working on it. This has been confirmed from the official side. It's all in the works and will take its course.
You should also understand that not everything is always *päng poof* implemented with a finger snap as from ghost hand. So that the customer, that is us, is also happy and satisfied, everything must be tested beforehand. Or am I seeing this wrong?

what do you think how many would grumble if there was immediately an update, which does not work? Then it's not right either.

and if we are honest - yes it is annoying that it does not work as we know and love it but no life depends on it, it is not the end of the world if it does not work for a few days as it works 99.99%. We must also have a little patience.

There are currently much more important and urgent things in the world than to fret about YT throttling!

So if you want it to be perfect, let the guys and gals at JD do their job and be patient. Everything will be fine again.

It is not about the filetype it is about the container.

When you go to change the video variant (instructions how given in earlier post) you are given various available choices (depending on your settings you will get a number of different versions for each filetype - so several different mp4. mkv, etc), and their specs as follows...

Type (e.g. Video)
Filetype (mp4, mkv etc)
3D/360
Width
Height
Fps
Video Codec
Audio Codec
Audio Bitrrate
Container

It is that last one "Container" that is important. Any of the variant choices that use DASH_VIDEO will be slow to download.

I have been picking a MP4 variant that uses MP4 as the "container" (not DASH_VIDEO) and I have got full speed download.

PM me if you need instructions on this with pics

Updates have not yet been released.
when = as soon as I've finished my review and feel ready to release the updates
remove/re-add = not required, but maybe (depends on many different factor) a rightclick reset might be required

[markifi]

i don't see this "Container" option in mine
