twitter-dl's Issues

MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected.

Running the example script from the README got me the following error:

(Use `node --trace-warnings ...` to show where the warning was created)

Unhandled rejection TypeError: Cannot read property '1' of null

Hey i got this error, I think it's from your library, can you fix it ?

Metatag Crawler does not find videos

The module does not seem to work, so I tried with just metatag crawler and got this output:

{
  meta: {
    title: '',
    description: '',
    canonical: 'https://twitter.com/i/status/1316439876582035456'
  },
  images: [],
  og: {
    title: '',
    description: '',
    url: 'https://twitter.com/i/status/1316439876582035456',
    site_name: 'Twitter',
    type: '',
    images: [],
    videos: []
  }
}

I'm guessing this was a twitter update but just thought i would post
