Weird, it did the trick for me.
Make sure you restart aimp and re-add the link to the playlist.

Добрый день, у кого подтормаживает воспроизведение треков с Ютуба попробуйте заменить youtube-dl.exe на https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/download/2022.04.08/yt-dlp.exe с заменой имени файла, мне помогло. Тормоза пропали, прокрутка трека работает.

Аимп 5,02 билд 2365, ютуб 1,7

How to add many youtube links to playlist?

This is not because of quality, this is because youtube is for several months now actively limiting downloading files directly, without usig their website. To work around this you need to use modified youtube-dl.exe that works around these limitations.

Steps (you need to have Youtube for AIMP intalled already):

1. Download yt-dlp.exe from https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/latest/download/yt-dlp.exe
2. Rename downloaded file from yt-dlp.exe to youtube-dl.exe
3. Right click youtube-dl.exe, choose properties, unblock file if windows says it is blocked.
4. Copy downloaded file youtube-dl.exe and overwrite original file in your      AIMP\Plugins\aimp_YouTube\        directory
6. Restart AIMP if it was running.

Youtube should be working now without stuttering, tested.

Author of this AIMP extension should start including different version of youtube-dl.exe.

Problem is, the plugin, even the new one (download .exe from github ... ok ...) isn't solving the really long buffering (?) times, when choosing long streams (> 1h), it takes ages and it still is lagging and stuttering. It worked perfectly well before.

Really a bummer - any chance it will work again in the future or is it a lost cause?

Это не верно, скачивать нужно х86: httрs://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/latest/download/yt-dlp_x86.exe

or is it a lost cause?

Heshflow перейдите на Github и скачайте 32-х битную версию.
У меня из этого плейлиста 2-х часовые сеты грузятся от 20 секунд до 2-х минут.
Всё зависит от формата, что отдаёт ютуб. Часовые сеты, вообще залетают за 15 - 50 секунд.
Командную строку в настройках "-f best[ext=mp4]/best" иногда меняю на равнозначную, это поиск по ID "-f 22/18/140" или "-f 18/22/140"

It doesn't matter if you download 64 or 32 bit version since nobody uses 32bit windows anymore, except maybe some very old machines, so why stick with old 32bit?

[ss.pl]

heroclix, you may be right, but AIMP v5.02 itself is still 32-bit, and so is the plugin.
I compared the work of "yt-dlp" (it was not a plugin) on my computer with Win8.1 x64 and it seemed to me that "yt-dlp_x86" works faster. 
I don't know what this is connected with, but it is so - maybe at this time there was no one on YouTube

I tried, even with the x86, but it still takes ages and stutters now.
Before it loaded 10 hr music within 3-5 sec. without any stutter at all.
Guess Youtube found out how to kick all these "don't show youtube ads" players for good unfortunately.

I had the stuttering issue with the bundled yt downloader. I followed your tip and works like a charm! Thanks!

In my case, no need to grant special firewall permissions to the new console app.
