Hi. Im trying to figure why I cant download youtube videos in higher than 1080p with .mp4 format. When I switch to .mkv I can download in 4k or 1440p.
Also when I select .mkv sometimes the app wont pull the link from youtube and I have to switch back to .mp4

Hi,

OPUS 152 kbit/s vs AAC 128 kbit/s vs M4A 128 kbit/s, Which has the best quality for a song downloaded from Youtube?

I made the question here **External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff** and they told me that: "above 128 kb/s opus, aac and mp3 are very close in terms of quality", "the best one would be the one that is closest to the source".

So, which one should I choose for having the best quality?

I would go for .ogg because it is 152 kbit/s but if it is true that it is equals to m4a 128 kbit/s, maybe I should go for m4a because its size is smaller than ogg.

In the link I posted, there are more infos about the audio, I got that infos using ffprobe

Hallo,

ich habe seit Anfang 08 / 2022 das Problem, dass Downloads von Youtube nur noch mit geringer Bandbreite (~100-200Kbit/s) laufen, was vorher deutlich schneller 1-2MB/s klappte. JDownloader2 ist auf aktuellem Stand, vom 26 Jun 2022.

Ich habe alle Möglichen Einstellungen überprüft und kann keinen Fehler finden . Meine 8Mbit Leitung ist nicht die Schnellste aber so langsam war es noch nie und über meinem Handy-Hotspot mit 50Mbit geht es genau so langsam! Ich denke an der Firewall oder am Provider liegt es nicht, würde ich ausschließen. Bspw. mit Tubemate (eine Android-App für Download von Youtube) damit klappt der Download "normal" schnell.
Dennoch möchte ich weiter den JDownloader2 dafür verwenden.

Kann es sein, das Youtube seit ~ Aug.2022 die Geschwindigkeit von Downloads limitiert also runter regelt? Hat jemand das gleiche Problem festgestellt oder ist es ein bekannter BUG in der aktuellen JDownloader2 Version?

Habe bisher nie diese Probleme gehabt, vielleicht habt ihr noch einen hilfreichen Tipp? würde mich riesig freuen, wenn das wieder klappt

Danke und herzliche Grüße.

YT Threads zusammengeführt.

@waveride
An JD kanns nicht liegen wir haben jetzt seit ca 4 Wochen keine Updates released.
Bitte poste mal Testlinks.
(Bitte auch Testlinks posten, falls du das Problem mit allen Links nachstellen können solltest.)

Hallo @pspzockerscene,

danke der schnellen AW. Bzgl. Tests .. ich hatte heute 6.8.22 , ~11:30Uhr folgende 2 Tests gemacht, hier das Ergebnis.

Test1:
hier ging es wieder langsam ca. 150-200kbit pro Sekunde Downloadgeschwindigkeit
**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

Test2:
hier ging es schnell 1-2MB pro Sekunde Downloadgeschwindigkeit
**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

Ich habe solangsam die Vermutung es liegt an YT, vermutlich gibt es dort langsame und schnelle Download-Server (wird sicher ein Pool davon sein) und/oder evtl. auch eine technische Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung. Da der heutige 2. Test wieder "normal" schnell lieft (seit ca. 4Tage das 1. Mal wieder), denke ich das der JDownloader2 nichts dafür kann. MfG

Good morning

I have a question how to set the language selection in the downloaded subtitles
Although the subtitles are available in several languages, there is no language selection icon
like on the picture

Regards

@waveride
Ich kann beide Links mit Fullspeed herunterladen.
Entweder langsame YT Server und/oder routing-probleme.

@vi66
Merged YT threads.

Got a question/problem...

**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

I'm posting a previously "LIVE" link to a video as an example of something that's on the server in various high quality versions, but JD is only picking up 240p. The video says "unlisted," but I've downloaded similar live streams before that were unlisted.

Has something changed?

Thanks.

How do prioritize the "mkv" container over the "mp4" container?

Also, add subtitles inside the "mkv", since "mkv" is richer than "mp4".

@Valinduz
Wait some time until all / higher resolutions are available in stream-types that JD can handle.
I'm getting 1080p for your testlink atm.

See Settings->Advanced Settings->Youtube.qualitysortidentifierorder
have to move CONTAINER at higher position
and Youtube.qualitysortidentifierorderfiletype
have to move MKV at higher position
Please know that mkv container is not yet available(defined) for every plausible video/audio codec combination.

not yet supported, but could be automated via Eventscripter and script that merges subtitle into mkv after download is finished

[Jiaz]

@M_Bison: higher resolutions are not available in h264 codec but only in vp9..and thus only avalable in mkv container

Thank you for responding so quickly.

I know you have to wait for 1080p to be processed. Sometimes it takes days and that's fine.

I know what the problem is now though. Under the "Variant" column header, I have to manually select "Change Variant" and from there I can select 1080p. This is odd as I've never had to do that before. 1080p would always be the default. It would always show the highest quality available (I have higher than 1080p disabled in the Youtube plugin settings).

I used to not have 240p checked, which is why it wasn't picking up the links at all. When I turn on 240p, then it works, but I still have to manually change the variant to 1080p.

Any ideas?

@Validuz
Can't reproduce.
The "best only" Handling is working fine here.
Please provide example URLs and a log.

@waveride: Probier mal Einstellungen->Profieinstellungen->InternetConnectionSettings.preferredipversion auf IPV6_IPV4 sofern du hier eine IPv6 hast? siehe ipv6-test.com ?

[Jiaz]

@Validuz: please know that you might have to re-add the link, so the plugin might re-fetch the available variants.

Jap auch hier seit heute nur noch um die ~300 kbit/s.
Auch mit einem VPN (zwecks Routing) getestet, kein packet loss, volle Geschwindigkeit bei diversen Speedtests.

Scheint als würde youtube wieder mal die Geschwindigkeit drosseln, war gegen Ende letzten Jahres ja auch schon mal der Fall.

Grüße, Martin

//edit:
Eben getestet:
youtube-dl (v2021.12.17) lädt mit ~500 kbit/s
yt-dlp (2022.08.14) mit meiner vollen Geschwindigkeit (60 Mbit/s)

[Leifman]

I believe youtube changed something? since from today (worked fine yesterday and all the time till today) the speeds suddenly are sub-100kb/s (like literally, 50kb/s or 80kb/s per file which all had just 1 connection with the new 'method' jdownloader used and used to have 4-5mb/s per connection each till today)

Not sure if a log can help/show that speed change but here is the one i just made starting the download / waiting a few seconds with its speed and stopping it:

18.08.22 12.00.57 <--> 18.08.22 12.01.52 jdlog://2039211370661/

[Jiaz]

@m.fessler @Leifman: yt has changed it again, other tools are/were affected as well. working on it but no promises

Update: wait for next plugin update
