  • I've verified and I assure that I'm running youtube-dl 2016.09.24
  • At least skimmed through README and most notably FAQ and BUGS sections
  • Searched the bugtracker for similar issues including closed ones
  • Bug report (encountered problems with youtube-dl)

Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Youtube-dl doesn't recognize ffmpeg, it is located in D:\yt\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe and Youtube-dl is located in D:\yt\youtube-dl

Try this in Cmd: where ffmpeg.exe

Also, sub-directories are not part of the directory defined in PATH.

Also, in Cmd: path to show your path env (or set path)

Sorry I have no idea what you mean, when I do where ffmpeg.exe in D:\yt I get INFO: Could not find files for the given pattern(s). and when I do it in D:\yt\ffmpeg\bin I get D:\yt\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe

ffmpeg.exe must be located in the same directory with youtube-dl.exe or in any directory from %PATH%.
