Currently for web responses at least, the
adaptiveFormats
and theformats
each share one n-param value (two in total), per/player
call (Innertube#getInfo
andInnertube#getBasicInfo
in YouTube.js). This pull request introduces a response level cache, meaning that calling.decipher
onFormat
objects from the same response multiple times, will now use the already deciphered n-param, as long as it is the same as one of the ones in the cache. The way it is designed, it doesn't make any assumptions on the number of n-param values, so if YouTube starts using a unique one for every URL, this code will continue to work, it will just make the cache useless.In my testing this resulted in the
toDash
function being on average more than 50% faster.
