YouTube is a very popular video-sharing platform. Downloading a video from YouTube can be a tough job. Python can make the job easier for you.
1. Pytube Introduction
2. How to fetch the Video Title
3. How to fetch the Thumbnail Image
4. Download a YouTube Video
pytube is a lightweight, Pythonic, dependency-free, library (and command-line utility) for downloading YouTube Videos.
Features
If you wish to know more about it, you can refer to Pytube Documentation. Use this link to navigate to the documentation.
Now that you are aware of pytube basics, we can move forward to the coding section.
You can find all the code at my GitHub Repository. Drop a star if you find it useful.

Open your terminal and run the following command
pip install pytube3
I would recommend you to use pytube3 library. I am using the same in this tutorial. Now that we have the package, we are ready to import it in our python script.
The first step is to import the YouTube class from the pytube module.
from pytube import YouTube
url = 'Your URL goes here'
my_video = YouTube(url)
Now get the URL, I am storing it in url. Next, I am calling the YouTube method on my_video and passing out URL.
print(my_video.title)
Now let's fetch the title of the YouTube Video Using the title method. Next, let's fetch the thumbnail image.
In order to fetch the Thumbnail Image of YouTube Video, we will use the thumbnail_url method.
print(my_video.thumbnail_url)
Print method will display the Thumbnail Image of the YouTube Video.
In order to download the YouTube video, we need to set the stream resolution first.
my_video = my_video.streams.get_highest_resolution()
or
my_video = my_video.streams.first()
You can choose the first stream resolution or you can go for one with the stream resolution.
If you wish to get all the stream resolution for the video and then choose the appropriate one then you can use the following command.
for stream in my_video.streams:
print(stream)
You can use the filter() function to extract only specific streams. This is useful when you want to download all the different resolutions of the YouTube video.
Moving forward, now let's download the video! We will use the download method on the specific stream to download the YouTube video.
my_video.download()
Your YouTube Video will be downloaded in the same folder where your python script resides.
That's it! simple, isn't it?
