DASH Video does not play

Hi, I have had this problem for a while, and I just haven't found any documentation on it on the Arch Wiki or elsewhere. I want to be able to play DASH video on invidious, but whenever I do it gives me the "The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported." error. I have tried this on firefox and qutebrowser with ffmpeg4.4 installed on https://yewtu.be.

Re: DASH Video does not play

I picked one:

yt-dlp -F https://yewtu.be/watch?v=sWbUDq4S6Y8
...
597 mp4   256x144     15    │   56.97MiB    22k https │ avc1.4d400b      22k video only          144p, mp4_dash

yt-dlp -f 597 https://yewtu.be/watch?v=sWbUDq4S6Y8 -o - | mplayer -

It played fine.
