I’ve used docker image from https://hub.docker.com/r/tdeutsch/podsync Build 4 days ago. So far so good

I was running into this as well. The problem is you need to update yt-dlp. Fortunately the container can handle this automatically by adding the following to your config file:

# Youtube-dl specific configuration.
[downloader]
# Optional, auto update youtube-dl every 24 hours
self_update = true
