@zernico/ffmpeg-ffprobe-yt-dlp-static-electron
Description
I made this package as a replacement for my project's dependency on Vitaliy Alekhnovich's youtube-dl-ffmpeg-ffprobe-static which has been removed from npm. I incorporated ideas from pietrop's ffmpeg-static-electron to make the binary paths electron-builder friendly.
Currently this module is only supporting the platforms needed for my project which are Mac OSX Intel and Windows 64bit.
Contains binaries for ffmpeg, ffprobe and yt-dlp. I replaced youtube-dl with yt-dlp as youtube-dl support is slowly dying and takes forever to download anything. Binaries are not on the git repo because they're too large.
Installation
npm i @zernico/ffmpeg-ffprobe-yt-dlp-static-electron

console.log(fixPathForAsarUnpack(ffprobe.path))
console.log(fixPathForAsarUnpack(ytdlp.path))
