Did some testing and it looks like it happens a lot on videos where there is copyright material such as songs.

I tried using youtube-dlc along with a fix posted there and it's solved my issue.
blackjack4494/yt-dlc#35

Would you be able to add this fix to tartube as well? Thanks.

You can set youtube-dlc as Tartube's downloader, which should solve your problem.

Click Edit > System preferences... > youtube-dl > File paths, and in the box Use this fork of youtube-dl, type youtube-dlc

Thanks, it worked. Just had to use the fix linked above and edit the youtube.py file after updating.

This is where it was located for me:
