I don't know how you would like to use a different exe for downloading as RMD is either just one standalone exe file, or the whole repo with all the python scripts.
Anyway, I have a workaround for downloading from redgifs, I'm not sure if every step is necessary but I did it like this:
- First download the repo, as you can't change anything in the exe version.
- run 'pip uninstall youtube_dl' and then install the same way 'yt-dlp' (not sure if necessary)
- Now go inside your RMD folder, there in 'redditdownloader/processing/handlers' you open 'ytdl.py' in a text editor
- in the first line where it says 'import youtube_dl' you change it to 'import yt_dlp as youtube_dl' (not sure if necessary)
- then in line 48 you find ydl_opts which has that structure with 'something' : 'some value'
- within the ydl_opts you add "cookies" : "some path to a cookie file" with a comma at the end
- now you will actually need a cookie file from redgifs, there is a addon for that (on firefox theres "cookie.txt") which allows you to get the cookie as a txt which you can use for the ydl-opts cookie argument from before
Now again I don't know if I did a good job describing this "fix" or if it makes sense, but in my case it allowed me to download from redgifs with no issue.
