youtube-download

Description

Using youtube-dl, downloads multiple files at once, with the possibility of using threads.
It's a command-line program to download multiple videos at once, by passing it a file with urls.
It requires the Python interpreter, and it should not be platform specific.

Only mp3 and mp4 formats are accepted, for now.

youtube-download.py input_file format [Options]

Options

-h, --help                Print help text
-o, --output              Name the output folder (creates it, where the program is being run)
-t, --threads             Number of threads to run (default is 1)

Special thanks to Rúben Anágua for quickly teaching me argparse and threads in python, and for the help in the division for each thread.
