| To select the video quality, first use the -F option to list the available formats, here’s an example, | |
| youtube-dl -F URL | |
| The best quality is 22 so use -f 22 instead of -F to download the MP4 video with 1280x720 resolution like this: | |

this works, to download complete playlist:
yt-dlp --cookies cookies.txt "url"

I have a membership, and there’s a playlist with 50 videos, but I only want the 5th video specifically. So, in such cases, how do I download just that specific video from the playlist? I mean, what do I write in the command prompt?
Is there anyone 2025 ?

Thanks mate I'll try until i figure out 🙌
Hi, I'm a total noob. I'd like to download a playlist of members only videos to my PC. I already have the membership to that channel. Your instructions look pretty simple but I'm getting syntax error on Python 3.13 command line (or I think you call it power shell?) A little help would be much appreciated. Thank you for the code!
Let me make it simple for you.
Hope you are on windows.
Make a folder on desktop
Put your cookie.txt inside the folder make sure the name is cookie.txt and right click the folder and click open in terminal
In terminal if you are doing fresh start
Then first type
winget install yt-dlp
Make sure you have winget install from Microsoft Store apparently you can use pip install yt-dlp if python in on your pc.
Then
Try
yt-dlp --cookies cookie.txt "your_video/playlist_link_here"
If you don't want to go through these hustle second option is download seal
https://github.com/JunkFood02/Seal/releases/download/v1.13.1/Seal-1.13.1-universal-release.apk
Verify on virustotal.com or ask Google or AI to verify the link to make sure it's safe, don't worry it is safe.
Goto menu > network section > cookie > enter "https://youtube.com" > generate new cookie > login to youtube with your membership account> click done in top right and then paste the link of playlist configure options and quality hit download and hope it work otherwise try different location vpn.
Make sure to log out after that and relogin with your scrap account.
Note : yt-dlp is not of membership video it worked previously but youtube patched it.
My hopes are with you.
Good luck

thank you very much for your answer! this was still a bit too much for a dummy like me. I wanted to share how I managed to download membership only videos:
1- pay the membership fee and join the members!
2- download a get cookies addon on your browser.
3- copy your youtube cookies as in JSON file format.
4- download JDownloader and enter your email address / copy your JSON cookies to "add premium account" option, for youtube.
5- profit!
