Updates

Program should no longer flag as virus by Windows defender or any on antivirus software for that matter, it also now fully only runs on Windows 7 - 11 x64
Program is now a fully single compressed .exe without the need for any off the extra files, it also starts just as quickly thanks to me custom compiling pyinstaller

  • Creates a function with hardcoded scripts to where the needed binaries are that the program uses
  • This function can be updated before building or the locations of the downloads can be changed via an ini file that is created via this script for the GUI
  • Comes with an error message in the event that the downloadlinks.ini file could not be created
    NOTE: This ini file does not need to be created for the program to function. However, in the event one of of the binaries get's deleted randomly, for what ever reason, this will make the ini file with the needed information for the autodownloader to download located in the main script
  • Program will now remember your default "Shell" option setting upon next boot
  • Adjusted the code to use 'yt-dlp.exe' instead of 'youtube-dl.exe' as the support for the later seems to be lacking
  • Program no longer exit's automatically when it's unable to find FFMPEG, as it can still function without it, it just can't do any post processing IE extract audio etc
  • Fixed a bug in the code where right clicking the window would no longer allow you to select paste
  • Adjusted the GUI size to make room for another frame
  • Added the 'Input Frame,' this is just updates a label based on the title/input name of the link you added to the program
  • The custom job window has been re-coded to allow for any other website, before it only worked with youtube, you can now freely type what ever the ID codes there is on the left, in order to download your video/audio into a .mkv file, this also gives you the ability to ONLY download the audio/video of your choice selectively
  • I made some quality of life changes, the text box's and input label all change back to "default" when left clicking the window after processing your job, this sorta "resets" the program and gets it ready for another link
  • Updated 7z CLI to latest BETA
  • Added the checkbox for the close automatically window in the custom downloader options
