I installed ffmpeg but I want to try avconv.

My windows is 64 bit so what I did was:
https://libav.org/download/ and went all the way down to Windows nightly and Release Builds, clicked on 64 bit windows builds, release-gpl/, then downloaded libav-11.3-win64.7z

I then extracted libav-11.3-win64.7z and moved the folder usr to my C drive and renamed it avconv

Then I went into my environmental variables and changed the path to c:\avconv\bin

These steps are similar to how I installed ffmpeg but it is still not working.

If running avconv.exefrom the command line doesn't work, there's nothing that youtube-dl can do. You should ask support to the avconv developers.
