YouTube is Slow [MEGATHREAD]
On Win10, I download the .exe from the latest release here: https://github.com/ytdl-patched/yt-dlp/releases/tag/2023.03.03.19419

Slow download speed for Audio but fast download speed for Video?
For those who still have this issue and are on Windows and need a fix right now just go and download the "yt-dlp.exe" from here: https://github.com/ytdl-patched/yt-dlp/releases/tag/2023.03.01.19419

Trottling Speeds?
The issue is already fixed in the code so if you compile from the code your issue will be fixed. Personally though I just downloaded the daily build and that seemed to fix the issue https://github.com/ytdl-patched/yt-dlp

Download capped for no reason
Temporarily, you could also install the unofficial daily build of yt-dlp from here.

Has anyone else started experiencing some YouTube throttling in the last day or so?
Get the latest unofficial build from here. 🙂

Cinema mod not working
It seems Youtube did change something internally so the old yt-dlp exe file (which the Cinema mode uses) no longer works. Found a fix: Go here to download the latest yt-dlp exe file: https://github.com/ytdl-patched/yt-dlp/releases/tag/2023.02.17.334. Then go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Beat Saber\Libs on your PC and replace the old yt-dlp.exe file with the new one you just downloaded. And it should fix Cinema mod. I just tried and it works for me now!

Is the yt-dlp fix for Vimeo's "Unable to extract info section" available as an .exe?
So, if you want this fix "as an .exe", just download the unofficial daily build from here, or compile yourself.

yt-dlp speeds at 60 to 70 KiB/s
Have you tried the latest daily release? https://github.com/ytdl-patched/yt-dlp/releases I had problems with throttling too, but switching to the daily release fixed it for me, you get the most recent fixes, but it might be not as stable, the original yt-dlp was updated a month ago
-
Getting error: "nsig extraction failed: You may experience throttling for some formats. Install PhantomJS to workaround the issue."
Until the next update of yt-dlp, you could try with the unofficial daily build, made by @Lesmiscore: https://github.com/ytdl-patched/yt-dlp.
- yt-dlp starts to throttle and no longer able to download 4k videos?

Is quicktime discontinued? If so, what shall we use now?
While QuickTime Player is still supported, it's not in a good state imo. I've never found chapters to work, for example, and have had other issues like the app complaining about being "busy" when trying to trim a video. If you're willing to explore, I'd suggest trying out IINA instead. It doesn't support editing, but it's good at playing.
