Note

If you're facing this issue:

Message: 'chromedriver' executable needs to be in PATH. Please see https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/home

then, you'll have to install the chromedriver and add it to your PATH , or specify its path using the --executable-path or -x option.
eg: egybest-dl --executable-path ~/Downloads/chromedriver ...
