If you'd like to request support for a new website, please submit it to youtube-dl's [issue tracker](https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues). * **How do I change the naming pattern for downloaded files?**: See [this comment](https://github.com/MrS0m30n3/youtube-dl-gui/issues/144#issuecomment-263195019) + + * **When is the next release coming?**: youtube-dl-gui does not have a release schedule, next release will come when it's ready. + + * **How can i log the youtube-dl debug output**: Just go to Options>Extra tab and enable the **Debug youtube-dl** option. + + * **I don't see my language in the available subtitles languages**: You can't see it because it's not there, feel free to open a new pull-request and add support for your language (it's literally one line of code you don't need years of experience). + + * **I'm on OS-X and i get 'No module named wx' error**: You need to install wxPython.

Download your video as you would normally do + + * **How can i use a youtube-dl option that's not available in youtube-dl-gui**: You can add extra youtube-dl command line options in the commands box under the Options>Extra tab. + + * **Can i download only the subtitles file**: If the video file is presented youtube-dl-gui will go ahead and download only the subtitles file else you will have to use youtube-dl or a different tool since youtube-dl-gui can't download only subtitles. + + * **I'm using the HLS downloader and i don't see any progress report**: That's a known issue you should use the native HLS implementation by enabling the **Prefer Native HLS** option under the Options>Extra tab.

For more info you can read issue #49. + + * **I'm using the HLS downloader and the Stop button won't work**: That's also a known issue with the HLS downloader on Windows.
