The above code will download our preferred stream and save it in the current working directory. So, now we have stored our preferred stream in a variable. We can also choose any stream with the help of its itag. This will create store the highest resolution stream in the ys variable. To get the highest resolution progressive stream available, we can just write the code below: ys = yt.streams. We have used the link for the official trailer of Dark Season 3 here. So, for output purposes, we are not printing descriptions (it’s large), so we are printing the rest four things. Also, there are many more such operations that can be performed which you can find in the official documentation of pytube3. Now, when we will run this code, we will get to see various details about the video whose link we have fed into the program. #Title of video print(“Title: “, yt.title) #Number of views of video print(“Number of views: “, yt.views) #Length of the video print(“Length of video: “, yt.length,”seconds”) #Description of video print("Description: ", yt.description) #Rating print("Ratings: ", yt.rating) Now, we can play with the link and reveal all sorts of information about the video like its title, number of views, ratings, description, length of the video and various other things. Now, we have the link, we have passed it into the YouTube class. Revealing various Information about the Video It will help us reveal all the information about the video and also will let us download it. So, we have accepted input from the user and passed on the link to our YouTube class. link = input(“Enter the link: “) yt = YouTube(link) The user will then provide us with the link to the video he intends to download. Our next step would be to ask the user to provide us with the link to the youtube video which we need to download. We do not import it by writing it as pytube3. To clear up the confusion, pytube3 is also imported by writing pytube only. You will notice that while we downloaded and installed pytube3 in our system but we are here importing pytube in the code. So, we start our program with the following command: from pytube import YouTube Now we need to import the library in our program for using its functionalities. Now we can start building our YouTube Downloader.
#Youtube download yt install
