Youtube-dl. The program to download whatever you want from YouTube

This article will cover all the details you need about this program, youtube-dl.

Youtube-dl is a program, as its name suggests, is used to download things from YouTube. The letters DL come from the abbreviation of Download, which means Download in English.

And this is a program that tries to help us solve a problem that we frequently encounter. There were times when we were bored somewhere with no connection to WiFi, and we would have liked to listen to our favorite songs or watch a movie we liked, and we could not. But now, with YouTube-dl, we can download YouTube content to watch it wherever and whenever we want. And this is a considerable power.

You no longer have to pay for overpriced plans, memberships, or subscriptions. With this free program, you can solve all these inconveniences in one place.

And it seems to me an injustice that all the contents are available for free when you have access to the Internet, but you can't access them when you don't.

This program is for Windows computers, and you can download it for free from the green button that says Download right here. You already have the information and the download in one place for a problem you've probably already faced.

There are two versions of the program. Both free. You have the console option, in which you will need to have a Python interpreter (which, if you don't know what it is, you probably don't have it downloaded) or the executable version, which is the one we recommend and which you access with the download on this site.

This version already comes with the Python interpreter built in. But you will need something else, which you probably already have installed. And this is the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010, the x86 package.

This program allows you to download multiple and unlimited videos, in multiple formats. You can also download it in different video or audio qualities. Let's say the standard kind of file customization.

The executable version of Windows is also in console form, so you will probably have to read the documentation to know what to do with each command. That's why it's likely that if you don't understand much about using your computer's terminal, this program may not be the easiest way to download a video from YouTube.

But every program has its utility and features, and I'm sure you'll be able to find them.

On the GitHub page, which you can access through the documentation part of the main page, you can access the list of commands to interact within the console.

The program is under constant development and is available for anyone to make improvements to the program. One advantage of the projects being open to the public is that they will have many improvements over time. That is why you cannot judge a program by what it is now since, in a short time, it can improve a lot.

What should be clarified is that there are faster versions to download videos from YouTube, but everyone can choose how they want, which is excellent. Since there are so many options, each person can select the program that best suits their needs.

The good thing about this program is that it is suitable for all types of computers and has no minimum requirements. It doesn't matter if you have an outdated operating system or the latest computer. This program will work for you anyway. And you don't need a lot of processing power either, as the tasks to be performed are simple. It just has a WiFi connection when you want to download videos or audio.

Conclusion:

A fully functional program to download audio or videos from the Internet. It is just one option of the thousands available to download material from YouTube, and it fulfills everything necessary.

There are more direct options, but this one is functional, and you can download videos quickly.
