youtube-dl is advanced but it lacks a good GUI. I personally can't use such a program without a GUI. Something similar to YTD downloader will be good.

I need it to have a progress bar and other quality control option. Ability to download multiple videos at a time would be good too.

Also please don't suggest flareget or Minitube.

You can use Youtube-dlG, a multi-platform GUI for youtube-dl. The GUI lets you download multiple videos at once, can automatically convert downloaded videos to audio, lets you select the video quality and more.

enter image description here

To install it in Ubuntu, you can use the main WebUpd8 PPA:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install youtube-dlg
