I use yt-dlp. It works perfectly.
couple of notes - freetube will sometimes break / instance will go down. troubleshooting is not user friendly. it downloads super fast and plays up to 3x speed, i love it - newpipe will not play through a playlist for me. always throws an error. so best to DL tracks and then play from phone 🤙
I noticed some video stutter and audio glitches when using yt-dlp. Any tips on how to mitigate that?
I haven't noticed that. Hmm. I use Linux and use the default settings.
awesome. One of our community members was kind enough to open source his script to use DLP with Termux on Android if that's your cup of tea, https://simplifiedprivacy.com/how-to-download-youtubes/
