Maybe we are trying to download the video while it's still processing? Does the api tell us?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the quality difference with the linked YouTube and LBRY videos, then trace the Go synchronization and download flow. Check whether the YouTube API exposes processing status and determine how the tool should handle videos that are still processing. Done means the behavior is verified and incomplete processing no longer produces an unexplained lower-quality result.
