Number of fails to downrank a user's shares (default: 1)
--fails-to-ignore Number of fails to ban/ignore a user's shares (default: 2)
--yt-dlp Use yt-dlp to download tracks that weren't found on
Soulseek. yt-dlp must be available from the command line.
--yt-dlp-argument The command line arguments when running yt-dlp. Default:
"{id}" -f bestaudio/best -cix -o "{savepath}.%(ext)s"
Available vars are: {id}, {savedir}, {savepath} (w/o ext).
Note that -x causes yt-dlp to download webms in case ffmpeg
is unavailable.
--search-timeout Max search time in ms (default: 6000)
--max-stale-time Max download time without progress in ms (default: 50000)
--searches-per-time Max searches per time interval. Higher values may cause
30-minute bans, see --help "search". (default: 34)
--searches-renew-time Controls how often available searches are replenished.
See --help "search". (default: 220)">
--fast-search Begin downloading as soon as a file satisfying the preferred
conditions is found. Only for normal download mode.
--remove-ft Remove 'feat.' and everything after before searching
--no-remove-special-chars Do not remove special characters before searching

Add 'T:', 'A:' or 'L:' at the start to only apply this to
the track title, artist, or album respectively.
--artist-maybe-wrong Performs an additional search without the artist name.
Useful for sources like SoundCloud where the "artist"
could just be an uploader. Note that when downloading a
YouTube playlist via url, this option is set automatically
on a per-track basis, so it is best kept off in that case.
-d, --desperate Tries harder to find the desired track by searching for the
artist/album/title only, then filtering. (slower search)
