Looking for a good free video download program - badjer27 - 20-05-2023

I use 4K Video Downloader for downloading video clips of subjects IÔÇÖm studying.┬á ItÔÇÖs excellent for many websites like YouTube, but many websites just wonÔÇÖt respond, and I canÔÇÖt find any straightforward way to do this.
YT-Dlp has been recommended, but I would prefer a GUI based program.
Any free and easy-to-use program that will let me do that would be great.┬á Many programs claim they will work with ÔÇ£hundreds of websitesÔÇØ, but usually donÔÇÖt.┬á
Any constructive and practical help appreciated.

With free ones you usually get what you pay for  =  Rubbish and unreliable. (And Possibly other "Extras" included - Malware)

This is not free, but there is a fully functional 30 day trial. https://www.internetdownloadmanager.com/  Thats more than enough time to try it and if it suits - Buy it, if not uninstall it.

Some sites, depending on how the video is streamed the downloaders simply wont catch them.

If you are studying through a provider, they can usually supply you with the right programme. Otherwise...
