bug description
I'm running cobalt locally, i.e. on Windows 10. When I download a youtube video/audio, the api server exits at some variable point during the download.
reproduction steps
I clone the repo and follow the instructions to get the local api server running
I start the api server with:
pnpm start- it runs onhttp://localhost:9000/I start the web interface with
pnpm dev start- it runs onhttps://localhost:5173/I am running the web client on Chrome browser.
I select the "audio" option from cobalt. I attempt to download a youtube url:
e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNBufpGQihY (the audio is 5m46s)
Towards the end of the download, the api server exits, with below trace:
node:events:498
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

Node.js v22.4.1
ELIFECYCLE Command failed with exit code 1.
This may have not happened the first time, but on subsequent tries, in the chrome download progress indicator, I see the file downloading, i.e. MB's increase, until it says "Done", however, I have a network meter (NetMeter), which shows only a short initial download traffic, but for most of the download time it shows 0 bytes traffic.

@dumbmoron commented on GitHub (Mar 4, 2025):
can you try updating your node.js to the latest version (v22.14.0) and see if the issue still persists?

That does seem to have solved the problem. Thanks
