Description

Summary

Many YouTube videos on the platform use separate audio and video streams (DASH format). Currently, this package downloads a single stream, which often results in silent video files or audio-only files.

This feature request is to support downloading both the video and audio streams, and merging them into a single playable file.


Motivation

Most end-users expect the downloaded video to include both visuals and sound. This is a standard feature in tools like yt-dlp and youtube-dl. Adding this support would make this package more useful and complete for real-world usage.


Benefit

  • Enhances user experience.
  • Aligns the package with common expectations from YouTube download tools.
  • Makes downloaded files immediately usable without additional tools.

Contribution

I'm happy to contribute to this feature if it's approved and fits the direction of the project.
