I found this app and it was initially working really well with all the default settings, but I noticed that it's started to randomly cut things off. I've been using it to download podcasts, so mostly 1-3 hour long videos and it's downloading them cutting off at various lenghts such as a 1:52:27 video downloading anywhere from a 0kb empty file to a 33 minute or 1:06:17 file. All I can think of to try is hard refreshes and simply retrying and I'll consistently get inconsistent cutoffs for the downloads, although I've had over 3 hour long videos successfully download.
reproduction steps
Simply paste a YouTube link and click download and it may or may not work.
Downloading audio, not video, and default(?) settings so 128kbps for the rate as MP3s
