Solved [Help!] youtube-dl not working

[Shawnilizer]

Hey guys, I'm trying to install youtube-dl but not luck so far. I followed this thread https://forum.sinusbot.com/threads/...s-how-to-install-youtube-dl-with-the-bot.135/

Help would be gladly appreciated.

Hey iam not sure about but I think I have a solution for your Problem YoutubeDL needs Python as you can see at the Website

Remember youtube-dl requires Python version 2.6, 2.7, or 3.2+ to work.

Have you installed Python? If not install it and try again

Forgot to mention, yes I have python installed. No luck.

I got help from this site:
