Troubleshooting.

mpv does not open

Run winget install --id shinchiro.mpv -e, reopen the terminal, then run mpv --version.

Fallback streams fail

Run winget install --id yt-dlp.yt-dlp -e, reopen the terminal, then run yt-dlp --version.

Downloads fail

Run yorumi-cli --update. The installer can also install ffmpeg on Windows when needed.

Old command still exists

Run yorumi-cli --uninstall. It removes installer files and known npm command shims.
