Is there a way to enable or configure a number of simultaneous downloads?

As it is, MeTube is the best thing I've found for downloading live streams from Twitch. However, if one stream is being downloaded, nothing else can be at the same time, and the extra streams gets completely missed. Allowing concurrent downloads that is configurable would be excellent for my use case.

are you meaning #314

No, multiple threads is nice but not what I'm referring to. If I put two currently live streams from twitch into MeTube, only the first one will download, and the second one is stuck in queue waiting for the first to finish. This results in the second stream being potentially lost in time forever.

I'd like a separate instance of yt-dlp to be launched if configured to do so

well... maybe the easist way is deploy multi cotainer.

Wouldn't the easiest way be to just add this feature to the application?

Nope. The easiest way by far would be to deploy a second container, especially these days with docker compose and such, we're talking maybe 5 minutes? I can't imagine rewriting metube for simultaneous downloads would take less than 5 minutes.

But in the end, it depends on how badly you want it. If it's not worth 5 minutes of your time, you probably don't want it as badly as you think you do.

Having a queue that allows multiple concurrent downloads would be so much more convenient than adding more containers every time I want to download a stream
