ouaurelien (In reply to Aurelien Oudelet from comment #2) > Leaving this in Bugsquad for now, until we get complains from users. Sounds like a plan. Thanks I suspect there was a good reason for replacing 'youtube-dl-gui' with 'tartube', for example: its site says that it requires Python 2, which we are trying to leave in favour of Python 3.

There's an old American cartoonist that's appropriate for this: https://thumbs-prod.si-cdn.com/i4d5VZeA7D4nJEGhEcdaKf9TeQE=/800x600/filters:no_upscale()/https://public-media.si-cdn.com/filer/07/51/075114f2-5108-4286-9841-e6cafb6a3c66/09_rg_rube_goldberg_inventions_usps_stamp.jpg (In reply to Lewis Smith from comment #4) > I suspect there was a good reason for replacing 'youtube-dl-gui' with > 'tartube', for example: its site says that it requires Python 2, which we > are trying to leave in favour of Python 3. > > Learning the command line structure of youtube-dl is a much easier path > "Small command-line program to download videos from YouTube".

Mageia 8 This need to be written somewhere in release notes. Why not try this python3 fork? https://github.com/oleksis/youtube-dl-gui Ouyeaahh, in comment 9, I have been youtube-dl-gui. Tartube seems more complicated than youtube-dl-gui, besides it does not appear to me in Spanish... Greetings!!! https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_8_Release_Notes#With_removal_on_upgrade (I suppose it is removed on upgrade) CC:

pkg-bugs You could also consider using yt-dlp which is also a fork of youtube-dl, but with more features. CC:

Seems hard to use MADB. yt-dlp is already available in MGA9. We just updated the Clipgrab gui in both Mageia 8 and Mageia 9 to use yt-dlp. I've tried it for Youtube videos, and it seems *very* easy to use to me. I don't know how they could make it much easier. CC:
