I use linux and android. So I don't need it. One of my windows friend asked me about it. As you known windows users are scared of terminal so GUI programme. I would also like it to be open source.

If you install yt-dlp and make a script for downloading, then users drag and drop a link onto the script on their desktop, is this «GUI» enough to be used?

I can't seem to get its downloading of subtitles to work.

You've checked out this:

https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp?tab=readme-ov-file#subtitle-options

? I think I've used --write-subs and --sub-langs all and it worked as expected in the past.

@Dymonika do --list-subs first, different videos offer different subs with different names

Ummmm... I'm an impatient loser who uses a GUI, haha: https://github.com/ErrorFlynn/ytdlp-interface

I'll have to dig more into its readme, I guess...
