I'm expiriencing same issue on some urls on YouTube |

Same thing with very recently uploaded YouTube videos. |

youtube-dl obviously has a retry mechanism.
It just doesn't catch everything

PS E:> youtube-dl.exe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clU8c2fpk2s -v |
What is the purpose of your issue?
WinError 10060
Timeout
When downloading VODs from Twitch, I frequently run into WinErrors or Timeouts. The download will hang for quite some time and then print the problem. The trouble with this is that I have to monitor the download to ensure that it's still downloading, if it isn't repeat the command, and then wait a long time to check what percentage of the file I've already downloaded then begin getting the file again.
Is there an argument I can use that would allow youtube-dl to automatically start over if data is not received for a set amount of time, preferably remembering where it left off so it doesn't have to check what's already been partially downloaded. If not I'd like to make a feature request for it. That way I can just set it and forget it.
This has only happened to me on Twitch to be clear.
