Important Deployment Considerations
Good bots offer MP4 (video) or MP3 (audio only), with quality options from 144p up to 1080p (or best available). Advanced ones support subtitles, thumbnails, and custom filenames.
If your server downloads too many playlists sequentially, YouTube may temporarily block your server's IP address. To fix this, configure yt-dlp within your source code to rotate network proxies or pass browser cookies using the --cookies parameter flag.
