Frequently Asked Questions

  • Post processing takes a long time: There should be no post-processing if you leave the video format to default (which defaults to the best format) and did not check convert to audio or embed subtitles, otherwise the file will be re-encoded to the format you selected (which takes time/CPU resources).

  • The website I'm trying to download from is not supported: youtube-dl-gui uses youtube-dl in the backend to download files. youtube-dl provides a list of extractors to work with each particular site. If you'd like to request support for a new website, please submit it to youtube-dl's issue tracker.

  • How do I change the naming pattern for downloaded files?: See this comment
