Type

Propose a brand new feature
Request modification of existing behavior or design

What is the problem that your feature request solves

youtube-dl seems to be a bit finicky with SoundCloud download links compared to scdl.

Describe the ideal specific solution you'd want, and whether it fits into any broader scope of changes

New configuration option FETCH_SCDL to enable fetching via scdl instead of youtube-dl.

What hacks or alternative solutions have you tried to solve the problem?

Use youtube-dl.

How badly do you want this new feature?

It would be nice to have eventually

I'm willing to contribute to development / fixing this issue
I like ArchiveBox so far / would recommend it to a friend

Feel free to close, it seems like the latest version of youtube-dl from pip has solved my flakiness problems.

Yeah, I think youtube-dl is broken and fixed quite frequently, sites often change their HTML/CSS/JS and it takes the community few days to push fixes.

In the pursuit of simplicity, I think I'm going to close this for now, as I anticipate user-provided puppeteer scripts will be able to beat both youtube-dl and scdl once released: #51.

Thanks for the nice ticket and suggestion though!
