YouTube download-and-convert website for ancient browsers

Is this up to date? Are there advantages over youtube-dl?

This is YouTube-dl, but also:

-OpenSSL 1.1.1f (latest). -Curl 7.69.1 (latest). -FFMPEG 4.2.2 (latest). -Python 2.7.17 (latest Python 2). -LAME 3.99.5 (second to latest released). -Zlib 1.2.11 (latest). -Mozilla's Certificate Authority Certificates PEM extracted by the Curl project (latest). -Bzip2 1.0.8 (latest).

All compiled for Mac OS X 10.3.9+. And then theirs the web interface or app to choose from.

aka a Mac 10.4 only front end for youtube-dl.

With all modern dependencies compiled by Xcode 2.5 for Mac OS X 10.3.9+

This works on more then just that os, but it does require tiger rn to run the server.

What are the advantages over pasting the YouTube link into VLC's stream from network stream? Are the codecs not supported in 10.3's VLC?
