Maybe ok.ru has a rate limit or the ploud instance has some server issues. I don't think it's a peertube bug

[filin2009]

Maybe 1
"ok.ru has a rate limit"
see Additional information #3
when downloading videos on PC
youtube-dl https://ok.ru/video/2001049487949
it is ok

Maybe 2
"ploud instance has some server issues"
see Additional information #2 - there are many PT2-instances with same errors
https://peertube.co.uk/my-account/video-imports

So,
I think it's a peertube bug. And it seems it's new peertube v2.0 bug,
because (see Additional information #4)
When uploading same videos on https://us.tv (PeerTube version = 1.3.1)
it is ok

How can I proove it?

Using youtube-dl on my computer, it requires ~2/3h to download your video. The timeout on peertube is 1h. I don't think it depends on the peertube version, but rather the localization of the server (ploud -> France, peertube.co.uk -> United Kingdom, us.tv -> Netherlands).

@Chocobozzz where can we change the peertube timeout of 1h to another value? long time bro

PS the issue OP mentions I still have with certain videos regardless of what site I import from, so it must be this setting that @Chocobozzz is talking about that has to do with the issue. Also I've had this issue in every version of peertube I've used up to now.
