Configuration file of yt dlg

Oleksis Fraga Menéndez edited this page Feb 13, 2023 · 1 revision

The configuration file of yt-dlg is the same as the configuration file of youtube-dl, since yt-dlg is a front-end GUI for youtube-dl³. The format of the configuration file is a JSON file that contains youtube-dl options¹ ². The location of the configuration file depends on your operating system.

  • On Linux and macOS, the user wide configuration file at: $HOME/.config/yt-dlg/settings.json .
  • On Windows, the user wide configuration file at: %APPDATA%/yt-dlg/settings.json .

You can edit the configuration file with any text editor to change the default settings of yt-dlg.
