yt-dlp support

[smaragdus]

Since youtube-dl may be abandoned (latest version - 2021.06.06), support for yt-dlp may be considered in the future since this fork seems to be actively developed (latest version - 2021.10.10).

Maybe the issue will be magically solved in a few weeks.

Let's keep an eye on it!

I really hope that youtube-dl is not dead, that the developer will come back to it and a new release will be published. If this does not happen yt-dlp is the obvious fork to replace youtube-dl.

Perhaps another solution might be that DownZemAll! supports both youtube-dl and yt-dlp and the user is able to choose which engine to use for downloading of videos.

If it happens that youtube-dl stops working with the most video sites I thought of a manual workaround:

• delete youtube-dl.exe;
• rename yt-dlp.exe to youtube-dl.exe;
• replace the deleted executable with the renamed executable;

I suppose that this might work but I haven't tried it yet.

Tried to rename yt-dl.exe in youtube-dl.exe... It works!

The fix should be quick to implement.

Fixed in v2.5.0
