Description

Your current method to download files may be quick on 5 min videos but on videos with hours is quite slow due to the fact you are downloading each individual segment.

It would be way faster to just download the video parcel and the audio parcel and merge them with ffmpeg in the end.

I did the test with the same video and i got much much much faster results.

Let me know if this is something you want to implement, if it is and you need help let me know 👍

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Trace the current per-segment download flow, then compare it with downloading separate video and audio parcels and merging them with ffmpeg; done means long videos download correctly with the expected audio and video.
