Downloading from YouTube: Metadata? #297

Closed thenormal closed 11 months ago

Hello. I just downloaded this program for my Windows machine. When it comes to downloading YouTube videos, I was wondering if there is a way to also download the Metadata (video description, tags, etc...) that comes with every video.

Regards.

"You don't need my permission to make this program do what you want" is the motto of this program. All tabs have a "download options" text field front and center to allow you to easily enter whatever options you want to make a yt-dlp behave to your liking.

To get video descriptions for example, add an option "--write-description"
