[YTDLError: aborted] Facing this in Heroku.

[SouvikUnscripted]

Haven't changed anything, Just deployed the app through the "Deploy to Heroku" button, and it keeps telling me Error while playing music Reason: YTDLError: aborted. - How do I fix this?

[Hazmi35]

Does this happen at the start of the music?

[SouvikUnscripted]

@Hazmi35 In middle of a track. (Never happend to me in the starting of any tracks.) The error pops in and the bot leaves the voice channel.

[Hazmi35]

Is it just specific to one track? can't reproduce

[SouvikUnscripted]

Nope, I tried with some songs it happens. Is there any extra builpacks or something we need to add?

No, heroku/nodejs is the only thing you need, because ffmpeg is already installed in node_modules by ffmpeg-static, what's your Heroku stack? trying to reproduce again

[Hazmi35]

Could reproduce, I'm investigating what the cause of this issue

[Hazmi35]

Could reproduce, this is an Issue with ytdl-core x Discord.js on Node v16 (16.5.0), creating an issue #552

[Hazmi35]

Fixed in #553, released as Version 4.39.2.

This issue is actually caused by Node.js v16 changes for Stream API, this is fixed by modifying highWatermark in the ytdl-core option.

Why does Heroku use Node.js v16?
Because the semver requirement for Node.js in Jukebox is ">=12.9.0" which means version 12.9.0 or newer, and Heroku chooses the latest Node.js available (16.5.0 as of the writing of this comment).
This is also fixed in the new release, now "Deploy to Heroku" button will use "container" as a stack, and make use of Jukebox's Dockerfile, this would improve stability
