Graphical YouTube-DL is a super user-friendly Windows app that makes downloading videos from YouTube a breeze. It's got a clean and simple interface, which is great for anyone who wants to grab videos without any hassle. This software is basically a graphical version of youtube-dl.
You can save videos in either MP4 or MKV format, depending on how they were uploaded. Plus, if you just want the audio, you can easily extract it and create MP3 tracks. It even lets you download music straight from SoundCloud!
The downloaded package comes loaded with almost everything you need to get Graphical YouTube-DL up and running. It includes FFmpeg and FFprobe (which are libraries for media), youtube-dl (the command-line tool behind this GUI), and DosCommand (for running DOS programs). Just keep in mind that you'll need some C++ runtime libraries as well.
The app sports a modern vibe thanks to its dark theme paired with red buttons. When you start it up, it checks for all the necessary components and will let you know if something's missing—no worries though; fixing it is usually just about moving files around.
If you're eager to watch your downloaded content right away, you can do that directly through the app using its built-in media player. The player is basic but easy to use, supporting various formats and even offering transparency options.
The whole downloading process is super simple! Just paste your YouTube or SoundCloud link at the top of the window and hit "Download" to get started. You'll see log details so you can catch any errors quickly. For YouTube links, you can choose between MKV or MP4 formats or go for MP3 audio conversion. Note that SoundCloud links only save as MP3s.
If there's an issue with conversion because of an unavailable video format, don't worry—just remember to click "Fix DosCommand" before starting another download after finishing one. All files will be saved in the same location as the app with names matching those of the uploaded videos—there's no option to change folders or names.
This graphical version of youtube-dl offers straightforward options for downloading content from YouTube and SoundCloud while also letting users convert clips into MP3s if they want something simple without complex features. However, if you're looking for more advanced options like downloading playlists or checking IP addresses of geo-restricted videos through proxies, you'll find those features in the command-line version.
