@millihertz At 3-4kb/s it usually fails after 700kb into a download. I could yt-dl very short clips haha

@neauoire @millihertz could you ssh to a server, download it there, and reencode down to something that'll download faster?

@easrng @millihertz I won't be able to download it from the server, but that might be a good way to collect things in the meantime mhmm

@neauoire @millihertz I guess grabbing the 144p versions with yt-dl would still be too much? 😀

Very often I just grab the audio stream with yt-dlp or NewPipe. YouTube is filled to the brim with media where the video stream adds little or *nothing* to the experience or understanding.

There are 50 kbps Opus streams to be had. They're near transparent to the original audio (for speech). But they're probably still too big (depending on the clip length)…
