项目地址：https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp

下载对应系统的版本，我的是mac，下载的是：yt-dlp_macos

将下载的文件放到自己常用的目录中，并把目录添加到环境变量中：

#yt_dlp
export PATH="/Users/testmanzhang/Documents/software:$PATH"

给yt-dlp_macos添加可执行权限：

chmod +x /Users/testmanzhang/Documents/software/yt-dlp_macos

我本地安装过程中出现了一点小问题，原因是我去年安装的版本现在已经很低了，下载过程中会报错：

解决方法就是把之前的版本卸载掉：

brew uninstall yt-dlp

或者

pip uninstall yt-dlp

或者

rm -f /usr/local/bin/yt-dlp
rm -f ~/.local/bin/yt-dlp

检查是否已经卸载：

which yt-dlp
yt-dlp --version

彻底卸载后再重新安装即可。

安装完成后如果遇到：无法打开“yt-dlp_macos”

进入：系统设置->隐私与安全性->允许即可

【基本使用方法】

yt-dlp_macos --cookies www.youtube.com_cookies.txt -f mp4 https://www.youtube.com/shorts/BGaE9PdZ0FA

--cookies 指定cookies

-f 下载视频的格式
