You can also paste in two youtube urls in one command. Same thing with playlist, just put the link there instead of the video and hit enter.When it's done you can just hit ⬆️ on your keyboard to get the command you just ran, erase the youtube url and paste another video in there.if you hit enter after that it should start downloading the video and save it in your user folder.(you right click to paste) example: yt-dlp.exe start typing in yt-dlp.exe or just type in y and hit Tab and it should fill the rest in.Īfter the yt-dlp.exe you should put in a space and then just paste in a youtube link as a test.open powershell (just search the start menu for powershell) (if you're on windows XP then use cmd.exe instead).Now most of the setup is done, now all you have to do to download a youtube video is to Unzip the contents of the bin folder in your userfolder directly, that means unzip all the exes so it becomes C:\Users\Forcen\ffmpeg.exe etc.Open the zip file, and inside the ffmpeg-4.0.2-win32-static.(you normally go to the official site here, and it sends you here to find the windows build you want, I just did that step for you) Edit: changed the link since shut down. Download FFmpeg, you can get the version you want here.Result (for me): C:\Users\Forcen\yt-dlp.exe You can get to it quickly by pasting %userprofile% into the address bar of explorer. Place it in the in your user folder, aka the folder that has the same name as your windows username.**EDIT : youtube-dl has gotten a bit stale so I edited the guide to the fork yt-dlp instead. PS: IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS SEND ME A PM, NOT A "CHAT"! That way I will notice that someone sent me something. If this seems way too complicated then you can use a GUI for it like this one: (more alternatives at the end) (this is based on the official instructions) This is how you set it up, it takes a few steps but it's real easy when you have done this once.
