Never mind, looks like it's working now. Must have changed something before posting or I just can't tell the difference between .mp3 and .mp4. |

Nothing is converted to mp3 as clearly seen from the log. |

Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information
Downloaded youtube-dl and put the path in system variables. Created a batch file to download my YouTube playlist videos, tested and worked. Here is the code:
youtube-dl -v -i -o "C:\YouTube\Video%%(playlist)s/%%(playlist_index)s - %%(title)s.%%(ext)s" --batch-file "C:\Youtubedl\Batch Files\Playlists.txt"
Next I downloaded FFmpeg and put the path in System Variables, created a batch file to extract audio from the video files and tested. Worked. Here is the code:
youtube-dl -i -o "C:\YouTube\Audio%%(playlist)s/%%(playlist_index)s - %%(title)s.%%(ext)s" --batch-file "C:\Youtubedl\Batch Files\Playlists.txt" --extract-audio --audio-format mp3
Went back to run the video file and batch file now converts it to mp3.
Same code:
youtube-dl -v -i -o "C:\YouTube\Video%%(playlist)s/%%(playlist_index)s - %%(title)s.%%(ext)s" --batch-file "C:\Youtubedl\Batch Files\Playlists.txt"
What am I missing??
