@Dobby233Liu Would it not be much easier to pull video info with YT-DLP instead, or is there a reason why Cobalt needs to be used for this?

[Dobby233Liu]

I pretty much just want to make it easy for myself, honestly. I did try to intergrate youtube-dl for obtaining the video stream at the early stage of development (there's a branch for the code), without much success.

Alright, it might be a main instance issue. Using a different instance like https://cal1.co.ggtyler.dev/ it downloads the video perfectly well. More instances can be found here https://instances.hyper.lol/instances/.

I believe it has already been fixed but the servers are crowded with requests. Maybe try adding it. I found out you might need to try out using the other instance's API as the main API refuses to work.

[Dobby233Liu]

Two problems now

1. The request routine or chosen instance is very slow
   
2. Add support for paginated video links from bilibili imputnet/cobalt#648
