Requirements for the code to run elsewhere? (files, packages, libraries, etc.)

Hi,

I want to download a Youtube video (given the video id), save it in the app internally, and play/access it. I tried copying the files over and adding the package dependencies (e.g. ffmpeg, python, YoutubeDL), but when I ran the app and tried downloading a video, I get this error:

Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>

  PYTHONHOME = (not set)
  PYTHONPATH = (not set)

  ]
Fatal Python error: init_fs_encoding: failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding

Current thread 0x000000016f587000 (most recent call first):

What else do I need to do for the DownloadViewController class to work?

Maybe you forgot PythonSupport.initialize()?
