A too loose filter may produce download duplicates, fragments of video or even a file having no A/V content.
A too strict one may miss content to be detected. In the global settings, many parameters are available, including a minimum size setting that can be trimmed for the content you are targetting:

* 1mb or less to detect small audio files * 5mb or more to detect larger video files
