Homebrew’s package index. May 24, 2021 Go to your youtube-dl folder and run youtube-dl-gui.exe. At first, you’ll see their license agreement, the simplest one ever to read. Just click on Yes.

Here are all the youtube-dl format codes I can find.Please let me know if there are more.

1. Jun 06, 2021 youtube-dl. NEW VERSION 2021.06.06. Youtube-dl is a small command-line program to download videos from YouTube and a several more sites (like Facebook, Twitter, Vimeo, NBC, ABC, CNN, FOX NEWS, etc, see supported sites ). If you don't like command line software then get a GUI like youtube-dl-gui. Or from the command prompt just type youtube-dl.
2. As we explained, the key claim in the youtube-dl takedown is circumvention. Although we did initially take the project down, we understand that just because code can be used to access copyrighted works doesn’t mean it can’t also be used to access works in non-infringing ways.

You can pass them to youtube-dl as --format a+b/c+d/e,where a+b is your preferred video+audio pair, c+d is your second-bestpreference, and e is your last resort.Don't forget the magic words like 'bestvideo', 'bestaudio' to round out your selection.

See https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/blob/master/README.md#format-selection

There are more formats listed in youtube-dl's source code,but some of them seem to be obsolete and are no longer returned by -Feven when using the example video IDs listed there. I will only includecodes for which I have an example.
