Hey @vxxxy, you can either follow the workaround in the linked issue, or use my latest release here https://github.com/StefanLobbenmeier/youtube-dl-gui/releases/tag/v2.4.10

Hi @vxxxy, I have the same problem, to fix it just install ffmpeg (via https://github.com/BtbN/FFmpeg-Builds/releases ) and select your BIOS, unzip the file, copy the three .exe files into the installation folder (of Open Video Downloader) under \resources\app.asar.unpacked\binaries

PS This "guide" is from a Windows user, for Linux or Apple it may be similar, but I cannot guarantee it.

Debian KDE here, I placed my ffmpeg, ffprobe and yt-dlp-unix binaries inside ~/.youtube-dl-gui/ and it's been working just fine
