YouTube access restriction issue

Open yyms3275 opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

A new parameter of &n has been created in YouTube parameters from the summer of last year, and this issue has caused speed limits when accessing addresses. Currently, this issue is partially resolved, when will this library be available? Below is a reference.

"Since summer 2021, YouTube has started serving media URLs with a query parameter such as ...&n=SXiXBH-xzrjeioPN&.... This now appears to be the default behaviour. Unless the value of this parameter is transformed according to an algorithm delivered in the site player JS, the download speed for the URL is throttled to ~50kB/s."
