# wybm

wybm is a GUI application which can download videos from YouTube in WebM format and interactively cut them without reencoding. It's available for all major platforms. [Click here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Kagami/wybm/assets/demo.webm) to watch the demo.

## Install

### Windows

Download [latest release](https://github.com/Kagami/wybm/releases), unpack and run `wybm.exe`.

### macOS

You need to have ffmpeg and mkvtoolnix installed (use [Homebrew](https://brew.sh)). Download [latest release](https://github.com/Kagami/wybm/releases), unpack, righ-click `wybm` app in Finder, select Open and Open.

### Linux

You need to have ffmpeg and mkvtoolnix installed. Download [latest release](https://github.com/Kagami/wybm/releases), unpack and run `./wybm`.

## Troubleshooting

### ytdl exited with code 3221225781 (Windows)

Install [Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86)](https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=5555).

### ytdl exited with code 1

Make sure you're using the latest version of wybm. File an issue if problem still persists, most probably YouTube changed something on the site and youtube-dl upgrade is needed. **NOTE:** wybm will use system (i.e. in the `PATH`) youtube-dl, ffmpeg and mkvinfo if available.

### No (VP9) formats available

It takes a while before YouTube generates VP9 formats for a new video. Some old videos don't have VP9 or even VP8 version at all, but that's quite rare.
