for anyone suffering slow traffic when play music

[spd789562]

Recently normal youtube-dl will face some traffic problems, for python users can use yt-dlp instead
but you can use extractor for discord-player which is downloader by the following command

YOUTUBE_DL_HOST=https://api.github.com/repos/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases?per_page=1 npm install @discord-player/downloader

or add dependence in package.json and just

YOUTUBE_DL_HOST=https://api.github.com/repos/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases?per_page=1 npm install 

notice: use cross-env in windows

then inside package youtube-dl-exec will download yt-dlp instead of ytdl when it install

and just follow downloader instruction

const downloader = require("@discord-player/downloader").Downloader;

player.use("YOUTUBE_DL", downloader);

it also resolves my bot play longer than 10 minutes video need a longer timeout, otherwise , it'll just stop after few seconds
