If you love Python and want to write your own code, here’s a good and simple practice when you download a video from YouTube. Use your own Python code, instead of installing plugin in your browser.
TL;DR
# import pytube
from pytube import YouTube
from pytube.cli import on_progress
# define download function and download path
def download_video(url):
"""Download"""
yt = YouTube(url, on_progress_callback=on_progress) # the interface
# yt.streams.first().download() # get the very first result
# get the highest resolution
yt.streams.get_highest_resolution().download("/FILE/PATH/")
def main():
"""Main"""
url = input("Enter the url of the video to download: ")
download_video(url)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()Edit: add on_progress_callback=on_progress to show up the progress bar during download.
