Integrated aria2 support

[SONGjiemo]

I learned about the aria2 multi-threaded download tool, and I don't know if it can integrate multi-threading, because I gave feedback last time. Also understood the problem.

aria2 multithreading tool address:
https://aria2.github.io/
Looking forward to your feedback.

You can use yt-dlp like CLI Backend and Setting Extra options for use aria2c like external Downloader

--downloader [PROTO:]NAME

--downloader-args NAME:ARGS

You and I are not a programmer and not very familiar with code.
I put the aria2 file in the same directory as the same tool, can you write a configuration file for me to direct the code to where? Thank you very much

The configuration file settings.json is located in the directory:

• Windows: %APPDATA%/yt-dlg
• GNU/Linux:$HOME/.config/yt-dlg/

You can add the aria2 executable in the config directory

Hello! I'm not very good at programming. Hope you can understand my difficulty.
My current file is like this, tools and aria2 are placed in one, and I also found the configuration file.

My current question:
Don't know how to go down. That is how I let aria2 to perform the download, and the number of threads can be specified

Hope to write an example

@SONGjiemo

In the settings Options -> Extra use --external-downloader and --external-downloader-args . With --external-downloader if aria2c is not in the PATH, pass the absolute path to ariac2
