Why does this program require administrator permissions to run? It doesn’t seem to be installing anything.

Dear Nishad, it seems there is a problem with the .exe file I am getting this error most of the time, is it possible to post a new .exe with the fix? ERROR: no fmt_url_map or conn information found in video info.

Thanks for your help,
best regards.

I agree with the person upstairs

Could you please share the methodology of creating the .exe file from the .py one?

Thanks
Markos

Hello,
Can you tell me how to create a standalone executable with py2exe. I did, but I do not know how to incorporate the DLL and PYD..
I make compile.py :
———————-
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
setup(console=["youtube-dl.py"])
———————
and create youtube-dl.exe :
python.exe compile.py py2exe

It’s work, but too many files in dist path.

Hi there,
Saw and tried on a friend’s machine. Is good, the only issue with this version seems to be no way to get subtitles. Also there should be a way to have some default download parameters decided by the user. This also seems to be missing.
