README
# **y**ou**t**ube **v**ideo **d**ownloader
> NOTE: You can do lot more if you directly use youtube-dl. This script only does what suits me.
> NOTE: it requires [youtube-dl](https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl), [ffmpeg](https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg), `dialog` to run and uses GNU Core Utilities commands `grep`, `awk` etc.
```
pacman -S dialog youtube-dl ffmpeg
apt install dialog ffmpeg youtube-dl
```
## Installing
For the current user:
```sh
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shivajichalise/ytvd/main/ytvd > ~/usr/local/bin/ytvd && chmod +x ~/usr/local/bin/ytvd
```
Or simply copy the `ytvd` file to a location in your `$PATH` and make it executable.
## Usage
- run `ytvd ` or just `ytvd`
- if asked for input give appropriate input
## How it works
it just runs `youtube-dl` and `ffmpeg` behind-the-scenes
