Error adding URL: 500 (KeyError: 'id') - But Video can be downloaded when using yt-dlp directly

I just tested MeTube a little bit and I recognized an error for a non-youtube Video that normally works with yt-dlp.

When I try to add it, a popup appears, saying "Error adding URL: 500 Internal Server Error
Server got itself in trouble"

And the logs say:

INFO:ytdl:playlist detected with 1 entries
ERROR:aiohttp.server:Error handling request
Traceback (most recent call last):

KeyError: 'id'

The link I tried is only available in Germany, so I think it won't help for debugging, but maybe the logs will be enough.

Yes, non-YouTube websites may not be able to read the video ID. Have you tried a single download instead of a playlist?

Ah, that must be the culprit. The video on this page is internally split up into multiple parts, where the video player may insert ads between them. Thats why one have to use the "--concat-playlist always" flag of yt-dlp.
