Now i see progress is not implemented.
BTW, most probably it has nothing to do with Cent and solely yt-dlp thing, but maybe you can advice smth too. While comparing 5.1.1130.129 and 5.2.1168.83, i noticed the new grabber sometimes works worse than old one on same sites = the old one can show estimated number of pieces to download and properly catches the desired video resolution selected in site's player; the new one on contrary shows N/A and always grabs only the top quality resolution available, not caring what was selected in site's player.
Is there a chance maybe for some settings/cookies that control that selected resolution catch?
According to the explanation in Does yt-dlp automatically download the highest quality audio+video or do I need to specify that?, this behavior seems to depend on whether yt-dlp detects the presence of ffmpeg. When ffmpeg is unavailable, it will download the available media; otherwise, the default is to download separate high-quality video and audio streams.
