Description

While youtube-dl is using local fragments it says "Unknown ETA" and "Unknown speed" - this is ofc because it is not actively downloading but merely rushing through local fragments (stored via --keep-fragments - it would be better if it could say something like "loading local segments..." to accurately report what's actually happening (which replaces both "Unknown ETA" and "Unknown speed" in that case)

Just an idea.... maybe more of a feature request but it not saying what it's doing (parsing local segments) is kindof a bug... well maybe not... but still sth that should be thought about

alternatively it could say "LocalLoading" or sth similar where it says "download" (at the beginning of the progress/current stage line)

youtube-dl is not using local fragments reassembly for a long time.

Okay that's weird... it definetly is on my end... on both Linux and Windows - or how do you explain the speeding from 0 to 90% when almost all fragments are downloaded... it could only happen if youtube-dl is using fragments stored on the local hard drive....

Again: youtube-dl is not using this approach for more than two years now. Such behavior is only possible if you manually remove main partially downloaded file and .ytdl metafile along with --keep-fragments but you must not do so.
