Hello everyone! In this video, I'm excited to share one of my first coding projects: a simple yet powerful Bash script for Linux called YVD (YouTube Video Downloader). If you're a Linux user looking for a fast and efficient way to download your favorite YouTube videos directly from the Terminal, you've come to the right place!

The YVD script leverages the amazing yt-dlp tool to give you full control over your video downloads. But that's not all – this script supports parallel downloading for multiple videos at once, saving you significant time and effort when downloading long playlists or batches of videos.

What does the YVD script do?

Simply put, the script reads a list of YouTube video links you provide in a text file (videos.txt). It then uses yt-dlp to download each video, either one by one or several in parallel, based on your settings. You can customize your preferred video quality, and the script automatically merges audio and video tracks if necessary (requires ffmpeg). All download operations are logged to a log file for easy review.

This project represents one of my first steps into the world of programming and tool development. I've put effort into making it user-friendly and practical. I plan to continue developing it in the future and add more features based on your feedback and suggestions.

If you like the video and the project, be sure to subscribe to the channel for more tech tutorials, programming content, and tools I develop.
