• no clients work for some reason

  I was using a nice gui client for youtube dl just yesterday when it just refused to download a mp3 for some reason. I deleted that client and downloaded this one https://github.com/dsymbol/yt-dlp-gui and it didn't work neither. So then I downloaded this one https://github.com/jely2002/youtube-dl-gui and it didn't work neither. The last one said "Error! Binaries missing/corrupted." So what can I do? Source: over 1 year ago

• usefullness of youtube-dl-gui

  I like the idea of using a command-line program for downloading content. It would seem to be simpler in all respects, b/c and despite a GUI. When running Open Video Downloader (youtube-dl-gui) its error however, is " Error! Binaries missing/corrupted. " and recommends "restart the app and disable antivirus. " Has anyone experienced this error? Basically, sounding way to suspect and worth inquiring with a forum. Source: over 1 year ago
