# :arrow_forward: YouTube Video Downloader :arrow_forward:
As I am tired of youtube video downloaders that are malicious and full of ads or paid I have created one with [Python](https://www.python.org/), Qt for Python ([PySide 6.7](https://doc.qt.io/qtforpython-6/)) and [PyTube-fix](https://github.com/JuanBindez/pytubefix).
## How to use?
**_It is highly recommended to install FFmpeg manually before running the program_**, the program can install FFmpeg automatically but during the testing of the program there were a few occasions when it did not install properly.
### 1. Installing FFmpeg
```bash
# Using Winget (recommended)
winget install "FFmpeg (Essentials Build)"
# Using Chocolatey
choco install ffmpeg
```
### 2. Downloading the program executable
1. Go to releases and download the `.zip`
2. Extract and run `.exe`
