Description

It seems that the program cannot download any music with none English characters in it.

@Cwavs Thanks for raising this issue. Seems like this is an issue from the simber library that ytmdl uses for logging.

@loulou310 Just to clarify, struggle finding metadata is probably because of the metadata provider and not because of ytmdl. It’s probably because of the language.
