## 🛠️ Troubleshooting

<details>
<summary>Click to view common issues and solutions</summary>

- **Format table not displaying:** Update yt-dlp to the latest version.
- **Download fails:** Check your internet connection and ensure the video is available.
- **Specific download errors:**
  - **Private videos:** Use cookie authentication to access private content.
  - **Age-restricted content:** Login to YouTube account to view age-restricted videos.
  - **Geo-blocked videos:** Consider using a VPN to bypass regional restrictions.
  - **Removed/deleted videos:** Video is no longer available on YouTube.
  - **Live streams:** Live streams cannot be downloaded; wait for the stream to end.
  - **Network errors:** Check your internet connection and try again.
  - **Invalid URLs:** Ensure the URL is correct and from a supported platform.
  - **Premium content:** Requires YouTube Premium membership.
  - **Copyright blocks:** Content is blocked due to copyright restrictions.
- **Separate video and audio files after download:** This happens when FFmpeg is missing or not detected. YTSage requires FFmpeg to merge high-quality video and audio streams.
  - **Solution:** Ensure FFmpeg is installed and accessible in your system's PATH. For Windows users, the easiest option is to download the `YTSage-v<version>-ffmpeg.exe` file, which comes bundled with FFmpeg.

#### 🛡️ Windows Defender / Antivirus Warning

Some antivirus software may flag the `.exe` files as false positives. This is a **known limitation** of packaged applications.

**Why this happens:**
- Antivirus heuristics can misidentify packed executables as suspicious

**Safe alternatives:**
- ✅ **Use pip installation:** `pip install ytsage` (recommended)
- ✅ **Build from source**: by following this [guide](.github/CI_CD_README.md)
- ✅ **Whitelist the application** in your antivirus software

#### 🍎 macOS: "App is damaged and can’t be opened"
If you see this error on macOS Sonoma or newer, you need to remove the quarantine attribute.

1.  **Open Terminal** (you can find it using Spotlight).
2.  **Type the following command** but **do not** press Enter yet. Make sure to include the space at the end:
    ```bash
    xattr -d com.apple.quarantine 
    ```
3.  **Drag the `YTSage.app` file** from your Finder window and drop it directly into the Terminal window. This will automatically paste the correct file path.
4.  **Press Enter** to run the command.
5.  **Try opening YTSage.app again.** It should now launch correctly.

---

#### **Configuration Locations (Advanced)**
- **Windows:** `%LOCALAPPDATA%\YTSage`
- **macOS:** `~/Library/Application Support/YTSage`
- **Linux:** `~/.local/share/YTSage`
