Description

@iamrahatul
Download from in-app works, but when I try to download from outside the app, with Vanced, by sharing, it doesn't work. It just creates an empty file, and it won't even show in the download manager.

Checklist

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Go to YouTube Vanced
  2. Choose any video, click on share, choose NewPipe
  3. Tap Download

Actual behaviour

Download screen pops up

Creates a file

But won't download, 0.00 kb

Expected behavior

I expected it to download the video, like it does when downloading from inside the app.
