(Solved)
How can I avoid that and only download the current video on the url? Also I notice that the Pause button does nothing, it doesn't pause the download.

[EDIT]
I'm uising the DLG version, so I have to set it in the Options to stop at 1. It would be good if DLG would ask if I want to download the entire playlist, it's hard to figure out if the link is for the playlist or the single video, I have to change it in Youtube and search the single video then it's ok.

Great tool !

You can just remove the "playlist" from the URL, it's pretty simple to do.

Say you have this url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZS5a3cm7zU&list=PLjJfRb0wNShMmDBep-S8g1p3ZILaw2_st&index=1 then you just remove everything after (and including) the & and you are left with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZS5a3cm7zU which is a standard youtube video URL. And this way you also learn to manipulate URLs, which is a handy skill to have.
