A workflow for Alfred 2.0 which lets the user search for YouTube videos and have them returned to Alfred.

Hi 👋

Broken?

Not sure what changed or where to start looking but it doesn't seem like any search will pull up videos.

Download YouTube videos

This is a request to add youtube-dl to this workflow.

I think it would be neat to download the found video when a modifier is held down.

I have it setup like so:

/usr/local/bin/youtube-dl --max-quality 720 --output "/Users/me/Downloads/%(uploader)s %(title)s.%(ext)s" --quiet {query}

Not sure if the creators are fine allowing to embed their yt-dl into other people's work though. (Also updating becomes an issue (an issue which probably will be fixed by some jdfwarrior magic.))
