youtube-dl-wpf VS one-click-youtube-dl

4.

youtube-dl-wpf is what I use, works well for CLI maggots like me -- doesn't feel like building a .bat script but also want the freedom to alter the actual argments that's passed to yt-dlp.

Once I posted a super long reply to a super long and messy feature request: https://github.com/database64128/youtube-dl-wpf/issues/131. It's basically like this:

> First of all, thank you for your support...$blah_blah_blah

> Unfortunately, I have to say no to some of your requests. $project is just a small side project of mine. My approach to its development will always be to prioritize my own use cases, while also catering to the community as much as I can. As you may have noticed, I have already implemented a bunch of new features and made quite a few changes based on community feedback. Decisions on whether to adopt a proposal from the community are made by evaluating the usefulness of the proposed feature or change for me and the wider community, and the feasibility of implementing it in my limited spare time.

> Now that I have explained my ways of doing side projects to you, let's go through your proposals:

heres a gui that i use. you just have to point to ffmpeg and yt-dlp executable in the settings and its all set up https://github.com/database64128/youtube-dl-wpf

A small project of mine: https://github.com/database64128/youtube-dl-wpf

It uses WPF so it can only run on Windows though.

you can try using yt-dlp along with a GUI of some sort, like Cube YouTube Downloader.

I found a tool that does what i was trying to ask it's called one-click-youtube-dl

Another alternative: I made a tool which allows one-click downloading videos with youtube-dl (no GUI, no command line). Here: https://github.com/baobabKoodaa/one-click-youtube-dl
