This class can download files of given YouTube videos.

It takes a given YouTube video identifier and sends a request to YouTube to get the video details. The class works as a parser of YouTube video metadata.

The class can get the YouTube video source URL and generates a link to download the video data in a given format, usually MP4, or can download it directly to a file using the Curl extension or the wget program.
