You can install them by
sudo apt-get install -y libav-tools
brew install ffmpeg
will install what you need and all the dependencies if you are on a Mac.
This is an old question. But if you're using a virtualenv with python, place the contents of the downloaded libav bin
folder in the Scripts
folder of your virtualenv.
Compiling the last answers into one:
If you're on Windows, use chocolatey:
choco install ffmpeg
If you are on Mac, use Brew:
brew install ffmpeg
If you are on a Debian Linux distribution, use apt:
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
And make sure Youtube-dl is updated:
youtube-dl -U
Update your version of youtube-dl to the lastest as older version might not support.
pip install --upgrade youtube_dl
Install 'ffmpeg' and 'ffprobe' module
pip install ffmpeg
pip install ffprobe
If you face the same issue, then download ffmpeg builds and put all the .exe files to Script folder($path: "Python\Python38-32\Scripts") (Windows OS only)
This is so simple if on windows...
In the folder where you have youtube-dl.exe
goto https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/
download the ffmpeg-git-full.7z file the download link is https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/ffmpeg-git-full.7z
Open that zip file and move the ffmpeg.exe file to the same folder where youtube-dl.exe is
Example "blahblah.7z / whatevertherootfolderis / bin / ffmpeg.exe"
youtube-dl.exe -x --audio-format mp3 -o %(title)s.%(ext)s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyPKRcBTsFQ
I know the user asked this for Linux, but I had this issue in Windows (10 64bits) and found little information, so this is how I solved it:
In case LIBAV does not help, try with FFMPEG, copying the contents of the "bin" folder to where "youtube-dl.exe" is. That did not help me, but others said it did, so it may worth a try.
Hope this helps someone having the issue in Windows.
What worked for me (youtube-dl version 2018.03.03, ffprobe 0.5, no avprobe, 3.4.1-tessus, in Hi-Sierra/iMac) was:
brew install libav
(thanks to marciovsena's post on GitHub).
I saw elsewhere that libav might be deprecated in the future, but I'll worry about it when we get there.
update your version of youtube-dl to the lastest as older version might not support palylists.
sudo youtube-dl -U if u installed via .deb
sudo pip install --upgrade youtube_dl via pip
use this to download the playlist as an MP3 file
youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format mp3 #url_to_playlist
There is some confusion when using pip install
in Windows. The instructions talk about a specific folder which has youtube-dl.exe
. There is no such folder if you use pip install
.
The solution is to:
bin
folder (there are three exe files) in any folder which is a path
in Windows. I personally use Ananconda, so I placed them in /Anaconda/Scripts
, but you could place it in any folder and add that folder to the path.On Windows, you can easily install ffmpeg via chocolatey
choco install ffmpeg
