Guide

• Save as \ MP3 - saves the best audio source and converts it to MP3
• Save as \ video resolutions:
  • Download the best video available with the largest resolution but no better than the selected_resolution (no conversion)
  • Or the best video with the smallest resolution if there is no video under the selected_resolution (no conversion)

Video Downloader - Where can be used

• YouTube
• Vimeo
• Twitch
• I used to have an imaginary friend, who heard from someone, that on this internet thing there are websites, where uncovered human body parts are displayed in motion. For real. Well, I cannot confirm personally, but I would say there is a chance the Video Downloader works just fine on these sites too.

Thank you all contributors of the Python modules, YT-DLP and FFmpeg!
