"Timeout awaiting request 3000ms' Some Video Downloads FAIL

[diamneth]

Most videos are being downloaded but several of them FAIL after retrying with lower quality until they get skipped.
Please, any solution to this issue? Why is this happening? They seem to be loading normally and suddenly the process is stopped in the middle

Same here. This caused by the youtube-dl timeout is too short. Try this:

Edit the file node_modules/udacimak/node_modules/youtube-dl/lib/youtube-dl.js
Increase the timeout to some larger number, for me I changed 30000 -> 3000000. Worked for me.

https://github.com/przemyslawpluta/node-youtube-dl/blob/master/lib/youtube-dl.js#L64

const req = got.stream({
    url: item.url,
    headers: headers,
    ecdhCurve: 'auto',
    timeout: 30000,
    ...(proxyArgIndex > -1 && { proxy: args[proxyArgIndex + 1] })
  })
