Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/imputnet/cobalt/issues/187

Downloads from Youtube, using either Auto or Audio modes, results in 0KB files. Tested on two different computers, with multiple different video links, and using the different codec/format options. Was able to successfully download from Twitter and Soundcloud but not Youtube.

Have downloads from late yesterday night (~10pm EST) that downloaded correctly.

I was able to get this error message when trying AV1 encoding.
