YouTube Studio Pro v2.0 - The Autonomous Upgrade

We are thrilled to announce YouTube Studio Pro v2.0! This major release focuses on drastically improving reliability against YouTube's anti-bot measures, introducing a sleek unified interface, and making cross-platform deployment absolutely seamless.

🌟 What's New

🛡️ Anti-Bot & Signature Decryption Bypass

• Browser Cookie Integration: Say goodbye to IP blocks and captchas! You can now authenticate yt-dlp by selecting your primary browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Brave, Safari, Opera, Vivaldi) directly from the UI to pass your logged-in session cookies to the scraper.
• Node.js Integration: Explicitly configured yt-dlp to utilize your system's Node.js runtime, ensuring reliable, high-speed decryption of YouTube's complex "n-sig" obfuscation challenges.

🧠 Intelligent Auto-Bootstrapping

• Zero-Friction Setup: If you choose to run from the Python script directly, the app now features an intelligent auto-bootstrapper. It detects missing dependencies (like yt-dlp or pandas) and prompts a clean GUI to automatically install them via pip before launching.

🐧 Complete Linux Native Support

• Automated AppImage Builds: We've introduced a fully automated build pipeline (build_appimage.sh) that packages the Python environment, yt-dlp, and all dependencies into a highly portable, standalone .AppImage.
• Desktop Integration: Linux builds now automatically convert icon.ico to .png format and bundle a .desktop file for flawless taskbar and app menu integration.

🌐 New Product Landing Page

• Launched the official product page at ytpro.fixare.studio.
• Designed with premium glassmorphism aesthetics, fully responsive UI, and lightning-fast static loading.
• Pre-configured with top-tier SEO (Open Graph, Twitter Cards, JSON-LD) and an llm.txt for next-gen AI search engine indexing.

🐛 Bug Fixes & Improvements

• Unified Interface: Removed the fragmented dual-tab setup in favor of a single, highly intuitive workflow covering both fetching and downloading.
• Format Availability Error: Fixed the notorious Requested format is not available error caused by recent YouTube backend changes.
• Enhanced Error Reporting: The console now outputs detailed, human-readable logging for download failures (e.g., age restrictions vs. format unavailability).
• Updated internal dependencies to the latest yt-dlp nightly builds to ensure compatibility with YouTube's newest rollout.
