except AttributeError:

pass

ssl._create_default_https_context = _create_unverified_https_context

def pytube_download(video_url):

try:

yt = YouTube(video_url)

def download_youtube_video(video_url):

download_options = {

'format': 'best',

'outtmpl': '%(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s', # Set the output filename format

def hook(d):

if d['status'] == 'downloading':

print(d['_percent_str'], end="\r")

def main(video_url):

configure_ssl()
