- [FFmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org)
|
||||||
|
- [PytubePP](https://github.com/neosubhamoy/pytubepp)
|
||||||
|
* These requirements can be installed using PytubePP Helper (post installation) if [WinGet](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/winget/#install-winget) is installed in your system.
|
||||||

|
||||||
|

|
||||||

|
2. If you don't have any Pre-Requirements installed first install [WinGet](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/winget/#install-winget). Then restart your Computer.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Now open PytubePP Helper (from system tray not from start menu or shotcut) you will see (blue) 'install' buttons. First click on the install button on the right side of 'Python', a cmd window will popup to install Python. after the installation is finished then close the cmd window and now install 'FFmpeg' by clicking on the next install button. after the installation is finished close the cmd window and restart your Computer.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. Again open PytubePP Helper (from system tray not from start menu or shotcut) and install PytubePP at last. after it finishes you can close the cmd window. Now click on the refresh button and you will see the 'Ready' message. Then close PytubePP Helper
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. You can now add the [PytubePP Extension](https://github.com/neosubhamoy/pytubepp-extension) in your browser and it should work properly with [PytubePP](https://github.com/neosubhamoy/pytubepp)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
6. PRO TIPS:
|
||||||
|
- Make sure PytubePP Helper is always running in the background (system tray) otherwise PytubePP Extension will not work properly.
|
||||||
|
- Always open PytubePP Helper from system tray if it's already running. if you open PytubePP Helper from start menu or shotcut when PytubePP Helper is already running in system tray then two instances of PytubePP Helper will run on the same time which may cause the app to malfunction!
|
||||||
|
- PytubePP Helper by default always autostarts itself when Windows starts. Make sure autosart is not disabled for PytubePP Helper in Task Manager (Startup apps tab)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### ❔ How It Works
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- PytubePP Helper is an intermediate communicator between PytubePP Extension and Pytube Post Processor CLI interface. It is used as a bridge to estblish communication between the System Shell / CMD and Browser Extension, as a Browser Extension can not directly talk (execute commands) with System Shell / CMD for security reasons. Browser Extensions are isolated from the system too, the only way they can communicate with the system (native apps only) is nativeMessaging API provided by Chrome (other Browsers provides it too). So, PytubePP Helper uses that API to communicate with the Browser Extension and recives it's requests and processes the data from PytubePP CLI then genrates a response and sends it to the Browser Extension.
