I know the first thing that everyone is gonna tell me is to look for already written, extensive guides on setting this up and I have done that, unfortunately I have seen contradictory information. All I have done is downloaded yt-dlp using python -m pip install --upgrade yt-dlp in the terminal. My goal is to download videos with sound. Now,
- Is ffmpeg necessary also? Can it also be downloaded using pip?
- Apparently, Youtube may ban users for using this and obviously I don't want that. From what I've seen you can log out of your account and use a throwaway, but let's stipulate I do that on Firefox, while still being logged in on Chrome. Then I copy the URL in Firefox and paste it into the terminal, will both accounts be tagged? I have no clue how YT would know when I copy a URL.
