YT-DLP Argument change required to restore 1080P YT
available in future release
Haxy
YT-DLP Recently changed the default extractor client, this breaks 1080p m3u8 link grabbing for avpro.
To restore this --extractor-args "youtube:player_client=web", Needs to be added to the avpro calling code in the client or patched directly in the vrchat fork of yt-dlp

This jankly quick fix also causing other sites that only serve video using HLS, MPD stream (audio+video) to break, result in no audio. Vimeo for example.

Oh? I thought YouTube was limited to formats that include video and audio in the same file, and for most videos it's like one choice. Will have to do some sleuthing later

Docteh they provide a muxed 1080 m3u8 when fed specific clients / agents, see the 1080 yt canny for more info

Docteh There's an obscured/hidden 1080p premux available that only shows up when the client spoofs being Safari. Also it's only available in m3u8 though (as opposed to HTTP/S) so it will only work in the AVPro engine and not Unity video engine.

the mediaconnect client also seems to work for this
