Youtube downloader

Looking for a reliable youtube downloader for videos.
I tried the YT-DLP, but am having nothing but problems with this one.
Don't mind paying if necessary.

What issues are you having? I've used yt-dlp plenty for video and audio and had very few problems. I use metube a lot nowadays which is just a selfhosted web page front-end for yt-dlp. There was a some gui software I used on Ubuntu a while back that worked pretty well I think but its been a while. I could try to go figure that one out if you'd like.

Here's a downloader with a gui that works - https://github.com/Tyrrrz/YoutubeDownloader

First problem is i barely comprehend what you are saying.
Would really appreciate any help at all.
I continue to get error messages.
yt-dlp failed to get info (see output).
Some output error messages are:
failed to decrypt with DPAPI.
Error executing command line - cookies from browser chrome
This is the video I followed for set up
LINK
For reference, I want to download soccer training videos and then have the capability to splice them, and possibly joined a few "splices" together.
Not all of a 10min video is age/skill appropriate for my 9y old girls.
Again, any help would be great.

Uhhh, yeah...
So I clicked on the link, but without a "dummies" guide, I have no idea what to do next.

I usually just copy the url from the browser on the video I'm on and then in command line run yt-dlp and paste url immediately behind it. I don't usually use flags outside of the one to do audio only. Are you adding any flags? What OS are you using?
Edit: i saw your video. I've never used the gui version and I've only used it in linux, but I'd imagine it would still work. One thing to note is the program updates kind of frequently as Google tries to break it then they fix it, so maybe to start go make sure you have the newest version on hand.
