Are there any good programs or sites that you can use to download videos straight from Youtube in decent quality? What about other streaming video sites like Kimcartoon?

Google the website you want to download from followed by the word downloader and click the first link

keepvid dot com
just paste the url into the website and it'll download it for you, no external programs needed (at least not the last time I used it, which was admittedly a few years ago)

When I open youtube-dl.exe it opens then closes. Had this problem when I tried it months ago too. I'm a windows 10 user

I use 4k video downloader. Kind of nagware but really not that bad. Long as you close the window it opens after every update/install and block the reminders to update the download functionality/speed/quality is very good.

You're supposed to open cmd and use it from there, not just click it

That might sound daunting but trust me it's very, very easy

For Youtube: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube_downloader_webx/
For the rest: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/download-video-and-flash/

Now the second one does Youtube as well, but the first one is just too convinient for YT to not use it.

It's already been said, but I've got to say and reaffirm that youtube-dl is excellent.
I made a webm showing how to use it. Command-line programs are easy to use, don't let the interface scare you off. If you have any problems, google is your friend.

The webm might be helpful to others too, if anyone cares to save it.

I'll just add that if it gives you an error about certification or whatever add --no-check-certificate before the url

You can force it to download at a lower resolution.

youtube-dl -f 'best[filesize<50M]' your_link will download best quality that is lower than 50 Mb.

Or you can, you know, re encode it. Ffmpeg is right there already. It is a big topic in of itself but you can download some GUI that uses ffmpeg and encode away. Takes time though.

Not the other anon, but if you're talking about the duration of the video, you can use FFmpeg to crop out sections of the video without re-encoding.
FFmpeg is a command-line program itself (for video/audio editing and conversion). I can probably give the commands needed to do so if you want.
youtube-dl uses FFmpeg to combine the best video and audio choices if they're not available as a single download (as seen in >>666392), so if you don't have it, it's probably a good idea to download it and put it in the same folder.

as gentlemen here mentioned ffmpeg, use this code

ffmpeg -i "input" -ss 00:00:00.000 -t 00:00:00.000 "output"

where -ss is the beginning and -t is the duration (don't confuse it with the ending)

Is there a way to download only audio directly. It's pain in the ass to download whole video with youtube-dl and then extract mp3 with ffmpeg.

Generally though, you can use something like this:
youtube-dl -f bestaudio 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ'

have you checked out acethinker video downloader?
just type into google acethinker video downloader, click on the link with the 4.3 stars out of 5 rating

first copy the link on top of the video
(w.w.w.youtube.c.o.m/example/number-emoji)

then paste it into the link area, then click download
it'll say the choices, go for the mp4 with the 640 to 340, some video it should say medium
reason why is that anything higher downloaded, no sound will be saved
