This doesn't stop me from using the package, the message just says to report it.

Hi! Thanks for the report - this is the downloader working as intended.

The message is a safety net: when Boosty sends a content type this version does not know, the downloader keeps going and asks you to report it.

Nothing was lost - the video was downloaded around it.

ondemand_hls / ondemand_dash are new streaming-link types from Boosty.
Version 3.5.0 knows them, so the message is gone there (latest is 3.6).

So you can just upgrade with:

pip install -U boosty-downloader

The downloader is under active development now, so the experience should get better with each version (I hope so) - expect many more releases ahead.

For example, in the next 3.7.0 version the downloads should speed up a little with concurrent connections.
