I've found at least one YouTube video that consistently doesn't download the full length. doesn't seem to be a consistent length, I got anywhere from 20-40 minutes of the almost 90 minute video (first link below)

had the issue both with auto and audio mode

  1. download a long video
  2. see the length isn't correct

wasn't sure if this should go under the main instance or the codebase, but I'm having the issue on the main instance

submitted the ticket while still testing, the second link did download the full video today as well as a few days ago, but in audio mode it also had the same issue as the first link

the first link is having the same issue both for video and audio tho, so it could apply to both modes
