## Known limitations

- ~~Similar images present in multiple pages in the let's play are duplicated, bloating the file. Though recurring images are usually smileys, so not too big.~~ Now handled!
- ~~Links to images are not properly saved.~~ Now working properly!
- LPs that are mostly link to YouTube videos are not very interesting to transform to epub
- Some LPs completely fail to be downloaded.
