YouTube Playlist Downloader

Simple youtube playlist downloader. It's mostly meant to download music as it only downloads videos in a MP4 format.

Beta version, there are still bugs. Loading bigger playlists may take a few minutes, around 3 minutes for a 200 song playlist.

If something went wrong (program didn't work correctly) it could be due to an internal error, but is most likely due to:

Possible Errors (Program not working correctly):

Playlist didn't load up:

• Playlist is set to private
• Bad internet connection (it has to be really bad to not work)
• Incorrect URL (it's not a YouTube playlist)
• Unknown error

If a certain video wasn't downloaded:

• It was deleted from the playlist (no longer exists)
• It was blocked by YouTube (could be any reason)
• Blocked in country
• Bad internet connection
• Server connection error or unavailable format
• Unknown error

Guide

• Paste/type in the URL of your playlist, check that the playlist is set to public, and then press Load.
• Loading videos from playlist may take a while, depending on the size of the playlist. Around 5 seconds for a 10 song playlist.
• You can only load one playlist and download the one.
• Once the videos are loaded (they pop up in the box to the right), type in the name of the new folder in which it will be downloaded.
• Click apply to change to the folder name (auto set to \YTPD_Beta)
• Click Download to download music files, a loading bar will pop up.
• This downloads all the files to the selected folder on Desktop (can not be changed).

Use at your own risk, as downloading certain music/videos might be illegal due to copyrights.
