Question

Not sure if I'm doing anything wrong, but somehow I cannot seem to run yt-download from different folder than it is in.

file locations

avconv is in C:\avconv
ffmpeg and youtube-dl is in D:\youtub-dl

Program only detects ffmpeg when I'm running it from folder where exe is.

Note: both D:\youtub-dl and C:\avconv are added to %PATH%

Full console log.

Output clearly tells you that path you passed in with --ffmpeg-location does not exist. Don't touch --ffmpeg-location if you have no idea of what you are doing.
