Update FFMPEG.exe & FFProbe.exe https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/

I manually updated these files, and now YouTube-DL-GUI no longer randomly errors out on me.

If you had the same issue as me, with the files randomly not converting, here's the solution.

  1. Go here https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/
  2. On the Right Side. Under Architecture. Select Windows 64-Bit.
  3. Select Download Build.
  4. Open the Archive. Open the First Folder.
  5. Open the Bin Folder.
  6. Extract FFMPEG.exe and FFProbe.exe
  7. Copy FFMeg.exe and FFProbe.exe in the YouTube-DL-GUI folder. Where youtube-dl.exe is located.
  8. Overwrite when asked.
