The download speed is too slow, increasing the number of threads is useless

@nizhiyi i don't know what exactly downloader you are using. Numbers of threads working only for M3U8/MPD formats. For regular file downloading exists constant THREAD_COUNT in CustomRegularDownloaderWorker, you could try change it, but there is 3th situation, when regular file downloading by youtubedl(if detected by link) and 4th situation, when download speed limited by server

EDIT:
Changing constant THREAD_COUNT won't help! Regular files like mp4 or same files, downloading by CustomRegularDownloaderWorker class always downloading in single thread, it's not possible to know where is mp4 stream or just mp4 file, i could add this in settings in the app, may be:). But this feature often uses by content owners to prevent download somehow and most safest way is to download regular files in sinle thread mode

@nizhiyi i have pushed branch "develop" (you can check help or not), in develop brunch added setting of regular downloader's threads count, but multi-thread download not working for streaming videos, like some videos from tik-tok
